Paul_Burkett Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I have the 276c, the problem was that when the GPS was off and to be in charge mode, the screen said "Battery Missing", also, the unit would not turn on unless plugged in to a power supply. I called Garmin for advice concerning this problem and the person on the other end said that this has happened to other people they will send me a new battery. They are good people to do business with. Link to comment
Huzband Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I've only had my 276c for a couple of months, but it's nice to know what to expect if it goes caput. Thanks for the post. Link to comment
malibu Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Had the same thing happen to my 376C about five months after I got it. Garmin was good about sending me a replacement battery too. Even expedited the shipping for free because I was just getting ready to head to Vermont for the rally. Link to comment
Uggles Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I've noticed with my 6 week old unit that sometimes it won't turn on when not connected to any external power. To cure this I removed and replaced the battery and all was well. Must be something to do with slightly dodgy contacts? Cheers Link to comment
Paul_Burkett Posted September 24, 2006 Author Share Posted September 24, 2006 I got the new battery on tuesday the 19th, no charge. Link to comment
