Is it new? Have you used it before? Are you sure it is charged? How old is it? Have you tryed disconecting it from the battery?

So you took it apart and disconected the battery wires from the unit and let it set disconected for 20 minutes or so?

If takeing the battery loose from the collar for 15 minutes and then hooking it back up doesn't work I don't know. You might call Garmin before you send it in though.
