changing the basemap on a Montana

[mhsnowy]

Exactly as above really.

How can I take of the less detailed and basic basemap on the unit and replace it with City Navigator Europe

Ive tried disabling them in the menu and then loading up CN but it doesnt show up on the unit.

Any ideas anyone?

You have to load it to the /Garmin directory of the unit OR the SD card and then "enable" it in the menu.

That's it.

Try renaming your ingoing map sheet/set.
Leave the basemap alone, just disable it.
You should be able to load the full memory with mapping as long as you rename each upload to prevent over-writing.

Sorted it but now I have a problem. When I touch the button on the screen with the 3 horizontal lines the unit switches itself off instantly.

Looks like it will have to go back to Garmin.
