try unhooking the battery for about 20 minutes and then hooking it back up. Believe it or not I have "fixed" several this way and it is one of the things the Garmin tech will ask you to do if you call in. Much like your computer, the collars can "lock up" and just need to be disconnected for bit to get lined back out. Best of luck, Casey
