This is a 4040 model
The folowing advice pertains to the following magellan gps systems.
Magellan 800, 860, 2000, 2200t, 2500, 3000, 3050, 3100, 3140, 4000,
4040, 4050 and 6000t
i fix these and many other magellan
gps daily so when considering
my advice , please understand i do not google my solutions.
assuming your car charger is working (the little green light is on) and
your magellan still wont start up after holding the power button while
its
plugged in for up to ten seconds and still does not start..read below
this
is actually a very common problem with these magellan power
ports...they are poor quality from the factory and always and i mean
always fail..the new ports that you find on ebay are 100% better then
the factory port.
if your able to replace that power port
yourself, you can get one HERE, if not, ask the fellow that
sells them for help.
due to some dubious "experts" on fixya, im
not permitted to help you directly, but please follow the link above to
get further help.
let me know if
you need more help or info

EX
please let me know if you need more help...careful what advice you take from this site...i work on these magellan daily, so take that in to consideration when review answers from experts...most on here are just goggling or guessing at the solution
i would not trust any expert that has more 2thumbs up then 3 or 4 thumbs ups....always check there profile and consider or try the advice given, before letting feedback
bill
why do they do that you ask, well thats a good question..they do it to maintain expert status so they can answer the payed questions

Yes I have the same problem with my unit. It was working fine for about 3 weeks and now it won't power on it is dead. What is the problem with it.
I have had this unit for over a year. Today I used it to get to a meeting and when I came out the unit will not turn on. It is dead. Nothing on the screen. Any suggestions?
