charge your battery full and go out some free area (no trees or building nearly ) it can takes 0.5 - 1 hour if you have firmware update maked...or long time from last signal....

Nuvi 660 use a flip up antenna to receive the satallite signal. If the antenna is down the GPS antenna is turned off.

The antenna is connected to the gps via a thin ribbon cable running inside the hinge of the antenna. It has been known to break.
