If you have registered your device on the Garmin site, it will show up under your account.

Garmin support does do both warranty and non warranty work. You are probably better off buying a new unit,

Remove the power from unit while it is still on and then hold down the power button for about a minute. Reconnect to power source and see what happens. If still operating erratically then something is wrong with the electronics of the unit.

Check the map on the unit. Make sure that there is a check mark next to the map that you want to use. Make sure that the map is from the region that you are in. If the map says "2016 City Navigator US Lower 40 States NW" then the map will only cover Northwest (NW) and not the area in the East.

First you have to know the password or know where the password was set. once the Garmin is unlocked you can go into the settings sscreen and change it. if you "forget" the password take the Garmin back to where you locked it and it should allow you to use it normally.
