Garmin 2300 Failure.

[catman]

Hi all. I was using my sat nav today and it was fine for the first couple of times that I used it.

Then it refused to turn on, even when it was connected to the in-car charger. Is it knackered? It's only three years old, but I guess that this could be the normal life span?

Thanks

Tim

3 years is probably life of a Li-ion battery, which if dead would stop device working even plugged in - you might want to search/ask in pocketgpsworld.com - it might be possible to fix fairly cheap.
