For determining the correct directory for the gmapsupp.img better take a look at the Garmin devices wiki page. Some of the newer models require a different directory instead of Garmin, for example Map.

@scai Didn't know that. Thanks! But at least for the GPSmap62 it should be the old /Garmin.

I think the 62STC is a newer model as it's in the list of models that are compatible with garmin custom maps. see http://www.garmin.com/us/products/onthetrail/custommaps

I think it is just the newer Nuvi and Zumo models which need maps in the "Map" directory. The outdoor and fitness models all use maps in the "Garmin" directory.

You can check if you have correctly installed the map and then select it. You may also select what level of detail is shown. see pages 12/13 of the user guide see this bit of it: answered 18 Aug '13, 00:48 andy mackey aseerel4c26 ♦ |
I think that you'll need to add a few more details before anyone will be able to help.
1) There are lots of OSM-based Garmin maps available, so which one did you choose - which website did you download it from, and which map on there did you download?
2) What did you do to install the map on your GPSMap 62?
3) When you say "no streets will be shown on the screen" do you mean "nothing different is shown on the screen when compared to before I installed the map", or something else?
