Hi, my Garmin Astro 220 was working fine Friday night, I use rechargeable batteries and they needed to be charged so I charged them throughout the day on Saturday, now it won't power on at all. I have tried several different batteries that I know are good. I have also tried the reset with the Enter, Map, Power buttons at the same time. Still no luck. Any ideas? Thanks

Check the negative battery spring. Mine came loose, I sorta fixed it, and it worked for a bit, finally it broke and now I have to be careful when opening it, I lost the original but went to the dollar store and bought a cheap electronic toy broke the spring out and replaced it. Still have to be careful not to lose it, but anyhow.

Problem could be the spring is loose and is about to come out. Sorry for the long winded answer.
