Is there a complete list of Varia RLT510 error codes anywhere?

I have a Varia RLT510 and today I got Varia error code 0:FC displayed on my Edge 130 but I can't find any information about that error code or any error codes. It's not helpful to display an error code without any information about what is means and what needs to be done to correct it. My Varia has been working fine, I do get a few false alarms but usually in exactly the same places along my usual ride, some of them I can associate with particular road signs or large mailboxes. But on the last couple of rides it has been acting up, giving sudden bunches of false alarms, and today I got the 0:FC error code. I checked and the software is up to date.

0:FC - Warn the user that radar is temporarily blind

Thanks, where did you find that information? Is there a list of all the error codes somewhere?

FYI, I was all alone on an open stretch of road, my Varia had a clear unobstructed view, and was clean (mud splatter happens occasionally on my grave road rides). What would make it go temporarily blind?

Is there a Garmin moderator watching over this forum? Hey Garmin, should I return my Varia for a replacement?

Not sure if there is a full public list posted. I hit that error so got that info from Garmin. I only got it the once.

I would keep an eye on it. If you get that message again I would contact Garmin. It could be specific to that location caused by interference form other radio/electrical devices.

I have got this error 0:FC on the RTL515 since last week. How can i resolve thie problem?

I didn't do anything and the error never came back. A glitch? Never received any additional information from Garmin.

I have the same thing did you ever get an answer?

0 Gaynier 11 months ago in reply to atuck1

Nope, I never got an answer but fortunately it hasn't come back. It would still be nice to have a list of what the error codes means.

I get this code almost everyday. Garmin says they are working on a fix but it's still a few weeks away.

Also getting this and mine is only 2 weeks old. I could clear the error and the radar was still working. I didn’t stop but when I got home the rear light was off.

Mine is also brand new and I get this code frequently
