Not sure but have you tried to use the reset button located under the bottom of the device, just near the gold connectors

Internal Memory

I followed the advice of Meld3, rang Navman Customer Support on 08448000912, answered straight away, they checked my serial number, seems as though first two digits refer to year of manufacture and then said OK will repair it under warranty, no proof of purchase needed. And they send the prepaid package!

repair of F20 internal memory fault

Right mine started to do this at about 15 months old, it had not been used for a few months.

So took it apart, to find the microcard inside as I assumed it may be the problem.

My first thought was why is it moving about so "moved" it about a bit and switched unit on, straight away it worked again, so assume that vibration could cause the card to disconnect, in my case to cure this I dripped some candle wax onto the chip and main pcb, still working at moment. Bluetack or similar could also work.

I'll try it out and see if it remains ok.

hope this helps others.

Re: F20 internal memory message

This error on the F series is an intermittant one. Removing the micro sd will NOT solve the problem. The device physically needs to go for repair where they change the motherboard.

If you try and copy the contents from one micro sd card to another, ITS NOT going work.
The Micro SD contains the maps and some software licence. Call Navman if its in the 2 year warranty they will repair free of charge.
They send out padded boxes to have the devices shipped. Excellent service
