Fenix 5X Plus not charging correctly

Squidy666
over 4 years ago

Hi all,

I've been noticing in the last few months that my Fenix 5x Plus no longer charges correctly. Sometimes when I plug it in it wont charge, but if I flip the charger cable around it will start charging. I've cleaned the contacts and it works for a bit then goes back to not charging after a few days. Is this a known issue at all? I know cleaning the contacts seems to fix it, but doing this every week or so will eventually grow quite annoying, and I'm more worried about a failing watch.

I know not every device will last for years, but its about 2 years old so concerns me.

    Buy some of this WD40 44716 Fast Drying Contact Cleaner. Give the contacts on both the cable and the watch a good blast and then with light pressure use a needle to move the pins.
