Anyone have any experience with a garmin that won't charge? Mine died yesterday while I was running, I put it on the cradle, and it won't tell me that the battery is already charging. I tried to reset it last night (mode + start button) and nothing happened. This morning I tried again and got a promising beep + the opening screen, but when I put it back on the charger, still nothing.

Any troubleshooting ideas?  I've been searching, but have not had luck yet.

No ideas here, I probably have a different kind. Hope you figure it out though, your runs don't count unless the Garmin records it.

Do the soft reset, its pressing 3 buttons at once, I think maybe start, mode, and one of the front buttons - but search for it on google. This happened to me before and the soft reset worked.

Thanks Nicole! I'll try it when I get home and let you know if it works.

Good luck with the Garmin. I think I had to reset mine once, but I can't remember how I did it. Did you check the support area on the Garmin website?

I figured it out. Thanks, guys.
