Bluetooth Connection on GO520

[Roger L]

I have a Go520 that I've had for many years. Starting about a year or so ago it will not maintain or automatically reconnect to my phone with Bluetooth. I usually have to go through the pairing process three or more times to get it connected and then it will disconnect at random a few minutes later. Sometimes I can get it to show a connection in MyDrive but the navigator still doesn't show that it's connected, the traffic symbol still shows an X. I even replaced my phone thinking that it was a problem with the phone's Bluetooth. I read on the forum a few days ago that the MyDrive app wasn't being supported any longer, is this true? The main problem I've found in getting it to pair is that it has to pair through the MyDrive app. Any advice on this would be appreciated.

Try this

CANCEL PREVIOUS BLUETOOTH PAIRINGS

TURN OFF WIFI

TURN ON BLUETOOTH

TURN ON HOTSPOT

SELECT BLUETOOTH AND USB ONLY

WAIT FOR HOT SPOT TO CONNECT

TAKES A MINUTE TO CONNECT TO HOTSPOT

MY IPHONE SE SHOWS A BLUE BAR ON TOP OF IT’S SCREEN WHEN CONNECTION IS MADE

IT WILL TAKE ANOTHER MINUTE FOR THE TRAFFIC TO SHOW

I have 3 GO620s and a GO520. These procedure works flawlessly on all four devices.

Hopefully this will work for you
