Garmin 910 Stopped Vibrating

Chris Ciannella

My Garmin 910 stopped vibrating last week.  I set it to vibrate after every 1 mile on the run and every time I hit the lap button on my run and my swim.  although, every once in awhile it will vibrate and when it does its for a very long time.  software is up to date.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Any fixes or suggestions?

Thanks,

Chris

It looks like you have done the obvious stuff. Fully charge the unit. Make sure the software is up to date. Do a hard reset.

It's a known issue with Garmin and I'm not sure they have a fix for it. If you look on their forms, they are offering a refurb replacement - you have to pay for it. I'd contact Garmin directly.

That, and a fading backlight when fully charged, was an initial sign of aging on my previous Garmin watch (a 405). I think it went at least a year after that before it gave up the ghost. If I can get 3 years out of a Garmin then it's done its job.

Thanks gents!

Paul - yep, I've had mine since 2014. All that money for a device that last 3 years - that's pretty piss poor on Garmin's part

Chris, this happened to me as well. I called garmin however and they had me try a few things...didn't work. They then asked me to return it and gave me a new (probably refurb) one to replace it. All free of charge. Not sure if mine was younger than yours however I found Garmin customer service to be great.
