Default Google maps plugin problem

We've got google maps installed and the actual map does not display. you can see it here:
DrivenWheels 2002 Honda Civic SiR Hatchback

I have a peek at the plugin faq's and the admin panel shown has many more items than what I am currently seeing.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Do you have a valid default location entered in the modules admin?

There are two versions of this plugin, the older plugin had a lot more options in admin so maybe thats what your looking at.

The address I've put in is 3 Irwin Drive, whitby, Ontario, L1N 9B8, Canada

Should that work?

I'm learning the back end of WP, but haven't attempted to tackle 68 myself yet. I'm a car guy & writer, not a techie!

I just read through the readme a but and tried Lat/Long and it has not changed it. I wonder if my partner got the google API key when he installed the module.

The current version of the mod doesn't need an API key. It does however need a valid latitude longitude entered. If that's not what you started with you may have to have the customer edit thier ad so they can click on an actual location
