eddy Posted November 17, 2013 Share i stopped my Garmin510 after 94.7 and saved the ride. All normal. Riding back to my car it gave usual auto switch off message and switched itself off. Now i can't get it to switch back on, and when I plug it to my laptop, it does not turn on or get picked up. I have tried plugging it into the charger, but no luck. Has anybody seen this and is there a solution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sworks20 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Do a re-set on the unit by holding the 3 buttons simultaneously. This has happend on my 510 after about 2 weeks of having it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Sol Posted November 17, 2013 Share i had the same thing, i think it may have had something to do with an update via internet. I send it back on warranty and they replaced it without a question. edge 500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddy Posted November 17, 2013 Share Thx Guys, I know what would happen if I sent it in- I'd lose my 94.7 ride details. I googled a fix and it worked. It goes like this : Plug the unit into mains power;press and hold the top left corner of the touch screen;at the same time, press and release the Power button, whilst still holding the left corner of the screen;Wait for it to turn on and display my sub 3 ! It is a type of partial reboot that retains the exercises on the device. Quite useful. dracs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just check for a software update when you get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewbacca Posted November 17, 2013 Share Well done sir! On the sub 3 with a scratch, not the computer thingymajig fix....... those computers just complicate things a lot and take the focus away from what is important. But then maybe I am just a caveman bike rider..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawdust Posted November 18, 2013 Share My 705 refused to boot up a few times. I eventually removed the SD card and cleaned it before refitting it. Fixed the problem straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
