Varia Radar stopped charging

My radar is no longer charging for some reason. I've tried multiple computers and cables as well as a wall wart to no avail.

The computers also do not see it as a USB device when I plug it in. But when I turn the Varia on, it will be seen by the computer but will fail to connect. And still won't draw current to charge.

Anyone experienced something similar? Or is my unit just bad?

I'm running 3.4 firmware on it.

    Varia battery not charging

    Battery not charging. Green flashing light does come on and still flashes for a whole day but not taking a charge. I also have 3.4 firmware running on it.
  • I called Garmin and tech support determined my Varia Radar is bad. Waiting on my replacement. In the meantime, I got a couple more rides from it but the battery is now fully depleted and my unit is now dead since I can't charge it.

    LED status light

    is the status light supposed to be solid green according to the manual when fully charged?

    had mine plugged in for a while now and its still blinking green.

    Though the edge says its full with "New" for battery status
  • Mine turns solid when charged.
