And here we are again...
Yesterday I went for a +300km trip and while navigating the Edge 1040 SOLAR, spontaneously crashed/broke down.
New Garmin way of saying: time for a break???
There was really nothing going on...Again dissapointed with the device, which costed a small fortune.
Anyone here suffered the same lately and how to solve it?
Am curious about your response.
Kind regards,
Ronald
ronaldbr Can you please confirm the below information?
No, what I said (& do) is you find the subset of functions that gives you the balance between functionality and stability that you can live with, if you can live with a few crashes per ride than max out…
This behaviour is to be expected
I realise the comment is ironic or "tounge-in-cheek" but the described 1040 behaviour is NOT what I expect nor what I observe. BUT in order to achieve the stability…
This behaviour is to be expected. My 1040 crashes 2-3 times during a day trip.
I just bought a 1040.
I updated everything and downloaded the latest maps and software. I drove the first trip without navigation (1.5h). It turned off three times during the trip for no apparent reason.
No further data was recorded.
I can't slam on the brakes every time and wait two minutes for the device to restart. 
GARMIN, it's your turn!
