Hi,

 

I have uploaded the MSM 2014 new year edition map into my Garmin Nuvi 255w.

 

When I entered the postal code, it does not bring me to the map for navigation but instead asked for the address to be entered.

 

Anyone here can advise why cant use the postal code function?

Go to Where to -> Points of Interest and key in the postal code there..

 

Make sure only 1 map is selected (ticked) else there will be routing errors...

Then u sud go back to Garmin local agent n ask them to check.

 

Cud b the new map u downloaded dun support PD search.

 

I just go to POI>Singapore>PD number n the location appears unless the address is new n came out after yr map was made.

 

I had this problem. A new address n PD n my maps cannot locate it.

iirc..the postal code search function only works for the City Navigator maps..MSM maps do not support postal codes
