My Garmin Edge 1040 will not boot when the Varia RTC715 is on

ghine 11 months ago

For the last few times I have tried to use my Varia RTC715 and Garmin Edge 1040, the Garmin Edge 1040 will not boot and continues to recycle through the booting process. When I turn the Varia RTC715 off, the Garmin 1040 boots normally.

Same thing here. extremely frustrating. Tried to update the varia using direct usb conenction to garmin express from desktop, then thru garmin varia app on iphone. reformatted sd card, deleted all files in DCIM on the varia. tried everything. the varia is useless now.

What Edge software release are you on?

0 mr.jr 9 months ago in reply to aweatherall

Edge is ver 19.22 while the varia shows ver 5.1 when connected to garmin connect on a desktop but when i use the varia app on iphone, it shows ver 4.40 and that there is an update available. when i try to update, it fails.

See if you can update the RCT using Garmin Express

The V4.00 is the version of the phone app I think and not the RCT.

yup, tried that, goes thru all the steps and when it says to disconnect from computer and power off then power it on, leds blink as explained, but then it never takes the update.

nope, its not the app's version, it is the varia. you tap the varia icon at the top, then you can get the details on the firmware version and it says 5.10
