Me, too. Golf Buddy charges on floor of car but something bent charging port while hooked up.
Replaced charge cord, then have to position GB so that charge cord pulls "down" on port in order to see flashing light charging in progress.
Has brand new battery Jan 2021 so not quite ready to replace it with new.
Now I know battery replacement is waste of time/money since this is a cheap product - and FYI lies about yardage of some holes LOOOOONG time reported to GB who cares nothing about a fix - so, if anything goes wrong, simply donate & buy new ... until the completion has us all gleefully putting GB in our rear view mirror

SOURCE: Batterey wont charge, charging port real loose. Is

If the charger port is already loose and the battery doesnt accept charge anymore then you have to replace the motherboard of the laptop. Port cannot be replaced individually,you have to replace the whole part for this issue.You can contact the manufacturer of your system and if it is in warranty then they will replace it for you.Try to check the charger/ac adapter make sure no part is damaged aswell...cheers!!!

SOURCE: My Golf Buddy GPS PT4 got wet. Removed battery; have in bag of rice. Still water under screen. Should I order replacement battery? How long should GPS stay in rice? Is there another solution? Help.

That is your bet. The rice trick. Id keep it in there for 36 hours. It will either work or not work after that period. If there is still water in there then might have to order a new unit. As for the battery I would have put that in rice too. Ya never can be too safe when it comes to water damage. If the battery did get damaged during the water incident then a new battery would likely need to be ordered.

But you are doing the right thing with the rice. Goodluck.

I have a golf buddy that lose it charge after about 11 holes can I replace the batteries?
I also had the same problem of the battery not lasting a whole round. I found out that if the unit was left for any length of time after it had been fully charged, it would start to discharge even though it was turned off. I now make sure that if I'm playing golf the next day I will put it back on charge overnight.
this has worked successfully for the last 5 months approx
i also looked to find a replacement battery but without success
hope this helps

My Garmin 465 won't stay turned on. Keeps starting over and over. Seems the port in the back is real loose
Unfortunately, the problem is with the charging port on the unit, which is from wear and tear. If the charging cable will not stay connected due to damage on the port, the best bet is to replace the entire GPS. You'll notice the port damage when the charging cable is fully seated and it still "wiggles" around. While Garmin's technical support may, and I mean may very loosely, offer a repair option at a fee it may be best to replace the unit with one of the newer models that include lifetime maps and the latest firmware. If the damage is to the cable, then it's a much cheaper option to purchase a replacement.
