Garmin DriveSmart 66 LCD Display Touch Screen Replacement
1. Product Overview This is a new OEM LCD touch screen display for the Garmin DriveSmart 66 GPS navigator. It is available in two variants — with the outer frame/bezel included, or as a screen-only assembly — and does not include adhesive in either version. It is intended for users replacing a cracked, unresponsive, or otherwise damaged display on their DriveSmart 66 unit. 2. Compatibility Compatible: Garmin DriveSmart 66 Not confirmed: Garmin DriveSmart 55 (5.5" display, lower resolution, different hardware) Garmin DriveSmart 76 / DriveSmart 86 (7" and 8" displays) Garmin DriveSmart 65 / DriveSmart 61 (use a 6.95" display, different from the DriveSmart 66's 6" display — despite similar naming) Other Drive or DriveSmart series models Garmin's DriveSmart lineup includes several models with overlapping names but different screen sizes. The DriveSmart 66 uses a 6" diagonal display, while the DriveSmart 65/61 use a larger 6.95" display — these are not the same part. Confirm the exact model printed on the back of your device before ordering. 3. Common Replacement Scenarios This part is typically needed when the original display shows: Cracked or shattered glass Unresponsive or partially unresponsive touchscreen Dead pixels or display artifacts No image / black screen despite the unit powering on Discoloration, flickering, or abnormal display output 4. Key Features New OEM part — not a used/pulled unit Combined LCD panel and capacitive touch digitizer layer Available in two configurations: with frame/bezel, or screen-only Does not include adhesive in either configuration; adhesive should be sourced separately for reassembly Matches original display specification: 6" diagonal (5.7"W x 3.2"H active area), 1280 x 720 resolution, multi-touch glass with backlight 5. Specifications Specification Detail Compatible Model Garmin DriveSmart 66 Part Type LCD Touch Screen Assembly Condition New OEM Display Size 6" diagonal — 5.7"W x 3.2"H (14.5 x 8.1 cm) active area Display Resolution 1280 x 720 pixels Display Type Multi-touch, glass, HD color TFT with backlight Frame/Bezel Available with or without — select variant at checkout Wight 80g Adhesive Included No (either variant) 6. Installation Notes Replacing this component involves opening the device housing and disconnecting the internal flex cable that links the screen to the mainboard. Since adhesive is not included in either variant, reassembly requires separately sourced adhesive strips to properly seat the screen (and frame, if that variant is selected) against the housing. This repair involves flex connectors and precise alignment, so professional installation or prior repair experience is recommended to avoid damaging the connector or surrounding components. 7. What Is Included 1x Garmin DriveSmart 66 LCD touch screen display (New OEM) Frame/bezel: choose "With Frame" or "Screen Only" variant Adhesive: not included in either variant 8. Buying Checklist Confirm your device is the Garmin DriveSmart 66 (not DriveSmart 55, 65, 76, or 86) Decide whether you need the "With Frame" or "Screen Only" variant based on the condition of your original frame Note that adhesive is not included — source separately for reassembly Compare the connector position and flex cable orientation with your original screen before ordering Confirm whether professional installation is required for your comfort level 9. FAQ Q: Is this a new part or a used/pulled part? A: This is a new OEM display assembly, not a used or pulled part. Q: What's the difference between the two variants? A: One variant includes the outer frame/bezel; the other is the screen assembly only. Neither variant includes adhesive. Q: Is this compatible with Garmin DriveSmart 65? A: Compatibility with DriveSmart 65 is not confirmed. The DriveSmart 65 uses a 6.95" display, different from the DriveSmart 66's 6" display, despite the similar model number. Please verify your exact model before ordering. Q: Will this fix a black screen issue? A: A black screen can be caused by the display itself or by other internal components. Confirm the display is the actual cause before ordering.
