Nuvi 775t will not charge

Nuvi 775t will not power up. I have followed all recommendations such as soft reset by sliding power button to the left while powered to a computer, leave it on house electricity overnight etc. with no success. Is there anything else I should do, or should I just send it to Garmin - it is still under warranty. Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

    There is an issue with 755T, 765T, 775T, and 785T models. This is acknowledged by Garmin and they recommend sending it in for servicing. See this link:

My garmin 265w doesn't start it just turns onto the garmin logo and that is a half screen

Hello,

Doing a soft reset on the nuvi will usually get the nuvi up and running.
If there is a reset button on the bottom, press and hold it until the nuvi powers back on. If it does not have the reset button on the bottom, slide and hold the power switch to the left for at least 10 seconds.
Also running the Garmin WebUpdater and reloading the latest update will resolve most issues.
Download and Install WebUpdater.

  3. Reset the device, if the problem persists, by sliding the power button to the left and holding it in that position for 10 seconds

Please ensure that the device is receiving a charge while it is connected to the vehicle power cable. If the battery is receiving power from the vehicle power cable then the battery icon (located next to the time) would disappear from the Main Menu.
If the unit does not power on while attached to the vehicle power cable please follow steps from below to perform a soft reset:
  1. Connect the device to an external power source1
  2. Slide and hold the power key to the on position for 15 seconds
The device should power on.
Notes:
  1. Preferably the vehicle power cable or a USB cable from a computer
  2. Some of the older Nuvi 200 series will have a reset button on the bottom of the device. It can be found on the bottom of the device on the same sticker that the serial number is printed on. It is a very tiny button and hard to see. So look carefully!!
