Forerunner 45 not charging

Ho everyone,

*** Sorry me for posting in the bad section, but I can't find the Forerunner section ***

I have this FR 45 that has been off for months, now it doesn't want to turn on anymore and if I try to recharge it it gives me this screen (even after 1 hour of recharging), with a green line (instead of red) and I don't understand what it means...

I have already used a new charging cable, new charger, cleaned the watch PIN and held the light button down for 30 seconds...

What it means I do not know but Garmins charge with very low wattage for several hours.
I would just leave the device on the charger for a few hours, maybe even a whole day.
If then still nothing has happened, the battery is probably deeply discharged and defective.
By the way, the Forerunner section for your device is here > https://forums.garmin.com/sports-fitness/running-multisport/f/forerunner-45-series

I have replaced the charging cable twice when watch won't charge. First replaced cable lasted less than 1 year. Charges fine with a new cable.
