If your forerunner seems well charged and it does not come on, then there is a problem. Most likely a faulty battery. Try another battery to see if it will turn on, if it turns on, then replace your old battery with a new one. If it still does not power on, then it seems there is a hardware problem, the gps need to be disassembled and check if there is a component that has loosen connection in it, the connection should be secured tightly, then reassembled back together and the forerunner will be in good shape once again. Hope this helps.

How to Save my Laptop Battery?

Charge battery fully (with laptop off) then unplug AC power. Do not continuously have power plugged in. This will ruin your battery. Remove battery when not in use for long periods. To refresh battery charge fully then run laptop till it turns off. Turn on again and wait for it to turn off. When laptop wont turn on, charge battery fully again and repeat process about 3 times. This should extend an old battery's run time.

Does not run when I push the pedal, it is brand new and has run once for 2 hours on an 18 hour charge, called PP and they told me to move the red pedal wire to the blue location (bypass) nothing happened....

OMG! The exact same situation here! Bought through Amazon, no warranty. I am so bummed. It was rode 5 times by a five year old on flat ground. Now it is a brand new, non operational, made in China piece of $500- junk! I am furious!!!When you press on pedal, nothing happens, fully charged battery, etc. Volt meter even confirmed fully charged battery. What ever happened in your situation? I am so hesitant to buy other parts, or send it here, to put more money into an overpriced piece of ****. Way to ruin Christmas!

My tomtom one no longer recognises the car charger.I have purchased a new one from a dealer and it won''r make it charge.I can only bharge it with my bomputer hook up cable...what can I do now?

Seeing as it charges from the computer
I doubt that it is the tomtom.

I would suspect either the outlet in your car or a posible problem with the lead even if it is new.

It will not turn on after a full charge

Sounds like you have a bum unit.  Plantronics gives a 1 year warranty with every wireless product, I'd send it back.
Have you made sure that you're turning it on correctly?  You push the call answer button and hold it down for about 3 - 5 seconds before it turns on, until the blue light turns on.  Make sure that you don't hold it longer than that or it will go into pairing mode.
