Fenix 7x sapphire solar flashlight just stopped working

No idea what's going on. However, try a hard reset by pressing and holding top until it shuts down then restart. Make sure you sync with Garmin Connect first so as not to lose any 24/7 data. If that doesn't sort it contact Garmin Support. They might suggest a reset to factory defaults before doing anything further.

I'd suggest trying a factory reset before contacting support. It'll save you and Garmin Support some time.

Same thing happened to me. Had an update yesterday (June 5) and now the flashlight doesn’t work. This is my second 7x Sapphire Solar in 10 months and I’m starting to get to my wits end. My last one just went “crazy”, stopped keeping correct time, buttons stopped responding and it kept randomly rebooting. Very frustrated. 

Subscribed. Have same issue since update

Same issue after most recent update. So frustrating. I hate doing hard resets as the first step for everything. 

soft reset worked for me :)

Soft reset didn’t work for me. It still works, if it’s in power saving mode or I manually go in and turn it on. 

I had the same issue, I did the soft reset that some people mentioned in this thread and it worked. Just hold the flashlight button and then power off, then use the same button to turn on after a moment. Now my flashlight works fine. 

Thanks mate, that worked for me after the update.
