      If the unit is till responsive you should be able to use the standard firmware, otherwise the recovery disc should see you right.

      The links are all on page 1 and should be good. (The files are all hosted on VWWatercooled too )
      Firmware updates for RNS510 units in Australia/NZ

      If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

            ...bugger, still not working.

            Anyone have suggestions on who I can send out this unit to for inspection / repair and update? I'm in the virus capital, Melbourne...

              Refer to Unofficial 272x software and SWL recovery CD for 'recovery' firmware if the load fails and your unit becomes unresponsive.

              These links should work (at least the WWC ones anyway)

                OK you tech heads out there, Ive attached two screen shots of the end result of the two burnt CD's I created to fix the 'boot-looping' RNS510 radio unit, which neither of these CD's are working.

                If anyone can see a reason for not booting up, please let me know... thank you.

                          Hi Steve, sorry, only just seen your post...😄
                          I've just downloaded it & will burn it tonight.
                          Will let you know next week.
                          Thank you.

                            Hi Steve, YES success, thank you.

                            Now, the next issue is my map version 8 disc does nothing when inserted in the drive. For testing purposes, the unit will play a DVD movie disc without any issues.
                            Any tips on loading maps after using a recovery disc?

                              Do you have a more up to date Firmware to load onto the system?
