I have a Garmin Instinct Solar Tactical Edition GPS Smartwatch 45mm Fiber Graphite and only one bar on charge and has been charging overnight. How do you fix this problem.

Did the watch show any charging when connected? Clean the contacts on the watch and on the cable, or get a new cable if it looks damaged. Try charging it from the USB port of a computer, instead of a charger…

Try charging it from the USB port of a computer, instead of a charger, if you did not do it already. You can also try starting the watch in the "Test Mode" (start the watch while holding the ABC button), and observe whether the voltage changes.
