    Hello I do have already 1 map ( BRMB 2018 ) on my sd card folder called Map
    and it work fine
    i can paste there other map as topo qc or quad qc (.img )

    when use the gps alone and go in settings - map vehicule -mymaps - I cant see the BRMB map and the CN NA from garmin but not the other map ( topo qc and quad qc ) and when start the gps after the warning agree it say map are corrupt or cannot be used

    when the gps is connect to basecamp i can see all those maps ( BRMB 2018 , topo qc , quad qc and CN NA)

    what would be my best option ?

    thanks all

    I'm guessing that the topo qc and quad qc.img maps are either in the wrong format or are in the wrong location on the Zumo, I would keep a copy of the topo qc and quad qc.img maps and remove them from the Zumo, It is better to load the maps into Basecamp with the Zumo not plugged into the computer, then plug the Zumo in and send these maps to the Zumo from Basecamp, using :- Maps >> Install Maps option, this way Basecamp will ensure the maps are loaded onto the Zumo's microSD card correctly
