Thanks, second step worked, just had to hold down for about 20 seconds.
My unit was over a year out and out of warranty. Just died overnight. Did the master reset but it just stayed on the splash screen. I would add step 6. Power off/on when the unit displays the splash screen for more than 60 seconds.
I was lucky all my settings were saved.
Thanks Mark. I wasn't too keen on buying a new unit
Thank you for this. Mine froze to the off position and this did bring it back from the dead.
Thank you Mark. The power on/down button worked..took about 30 seconds to get to main menu but it worked. Since it was mentioned in a previous comment, my issue occurred a few days after downloading the Strava app...not sure if it had anything to do with it as the Garmin has worked flawlessly for 4 years.
Hi, mine also did the same this morning after doing a few updates this weekend. So maybe there is either a problem with the last firmware or one of the apps . problem is that i managed to get it to start but it does no go part the start screen - tries both options
