Zumo pin cover replacement

[mad manc]

Noticed last night that the rubber pin cover on the zumo mount has started to perish. Any one know if you can get replacements for these? Ive had a look on the garmin site and nothing popped up.

Give Garmin UK a ring, they`ll probably replace the bike mount for you, otherwise the mount will fail once you get water onto/into the electrical contacts.
I`ve had my second bike mount replaced by them, just this week, phoned them monday and they said send it to us and we`ll replace it, new bike mount arrived Thursday brilliant service from them.

Thanks for that. I'll give them a call.

Just got off the phone from Garmin. They are going to send out a replacement boot free of charge. Hats of to garmin.. Now does anyone know if silicone grease be be ok to use to keep the rubber supple as well as the contacts clean?

I use Halfords silicone spray on the rubber weather cover every couple weeks. Stops any perishing problems. I use Halfords electrical contact cleaner on the electrical pins now and again. Works perfectly !

Replacement Boots

Just an update to this. Garmin have sent me not one but two spare boot protectors for the contacts. Excellent service from Garmin once again.
