My watch powers itself off about 15 seconds after I power it on - I tried searching the forums, but couldn't find any similar posts.
I went for a swim yesterday afternoon, and thought I'd try logging it as an "Other" activity with my Forerunner 235. This is the first time I've tried logging an activity while swimming.
It was working while I was in the water - I had it displaying the normal watch face (i.e. time) during the activity - and was still working when I got out of the water and stopped it recording, and returned to the normal watch face.
I didn't look at it until I got home and went to remove it when I went to have a shower - it was then that I noticed that the screen was blank - it looked like it was powered off.
I rinsed it off under the tap, and then dried it with a towel like I do normally after a run.
After my shower I then tried to power it on - it displayed the Garmin logo followed by the normal watch face, and vibrated and told me to "MOVE" but the time was wrong.
When I looked at it a few minutes later I noticed it had powered off again.
I powered it on again, and noticed that after about 10 seconds it displayed the prompt asking whether I wanted to power off - I selected "No" and it returned to the watch face, but then powered off anyway.
I tried powering it on again, but it did the same thing. I also tried jiggling the buttons a bit to make sure they weren't getting stuck and causing it to think I was trying to force it to power off.
It now doesn't even appear to be displaying the watch face, it only displays the Garmin logo before powering off again :(
The time that it was displaying is approximately the time that I had stopped it recording the activity, so I'm hoping it's not because it somehow got some water in it...
I have had the watch since June 2017, and I had just charged it this afternoon - the battery was at 89% when I tried connecting it to the charger before looking for answers on this forum.
Thank you for reading - Much appreciated if anyone has any solutions! Hoping I don't need to send it off for repairs...
