I got my Garmin c340 today. Was able to turn it on the first time after it was installed. Then I could not turn it on however I tried.

Just read the suggestion about the reset button underneath the silver front and it worked. Thank you Thank you Thank you. I have become very dependant on my Garmin and I didn't feel like buying a new one.

You need to press the reset button for three seconds then charge it...the reset button is under the grey mounting around the screen which you have to snap off to get to the reset button.

Garmin recommends charging the device for at least 15 min prior to turning it on as the battery may be completely discharged. Worked for me.

There is a red button on the side of the unit, hold that and the unit will come on.

SOURCE: garmin 340 streetpilot won't even turn on?

I had the same issue with mine during a trip. Probably needs to be reset. See page 31 of the users manual on Resetting your c340. Once I did this it worked fine.

HI, MY GARMON STREET PILOT C 340 IS NOT WORKING, IT JUST SAYS, SEARCHING FOR SATTELITE MY SON IS IN WILDWOOD NJ AND HAS THIS PROBLEM WITH IT

Give Garmin Technical Assistance a call. They will run you through a series of diagnostic and reset button sequences to try. The unit may just be faulty; in either case you will find out after the diagnostics are performed.

My garmin 340 suddenly stopped working

Ummmmm "Low battery"....... not too hard to figure out. You need to charge it for several hours. If the battery is low it WILL go out on you and during that time, the battery may recover enough to come on briefly then go off again. Please charge your battery!
