hello, my garmin forerunner isn't powering on anymore, the battery had one bar left so i charged it, the next day it wouldnt turn on, so i charged it again, and yes the charging screen will appear. Although my garmin will not turn on, any idea how i can power it back on?

My Forerunnner 201 will not charge. I cleaned the terminals but still no charge. It was working great then stopped recharging. Help

I have the same problem. I get the charging screen; I can download past data to the computer; but I cannot power it on using the buttons. I tried a reset, but the buttons have stopped working completely. This was overnight, so I think something electrical happend to damage the buttons. Any thoughts?

Try a reset. Hold the reset and power button for 30 seconds.
