Garmin 810 power button is broken

[@29818fdc]

Thanks to you I have recovered my Garmin 810. I owe you some beers :)

[@roellepunsalan8389]

this saved me from buying a USD64 back cover replacement. thank you!

[@AndrewYPTang]

Yup. It's an incredibly idiotic design for the button. And for official replacement from Garmin, you HAVE to buy a whole new back cover.

This fix worked perfectly. Job completed today (September 21, 2017) so i can't report on life expectancy. Beats giving Garmin $100 for a replacement used GPS. BTW, my model was an Edge 800. I used contact cement, a discarded bicycle inner tube, and a ball point pen innard. Covered with friction tape to provide some water resistance. Thank you for this solution.

[@dgd8104]

I did simple way by inserting a piece of rubber cut from rubber eraser little bit larger than the hole to make it "water thight", and it works on my edge 1000

[@dgd8104]

Rubber tire is too thin, with rubber eraser you can cut thicker piece to suit the depth of the switch hole.

All three button covers on my 510 gave up. Fixed with some small bits of dowel for the hard bit, held in place and sealed with Sikaflex automotive sealant. Should get a few more years hopefully as just replaced battery after a water ingress.

Richard Wolf I'm from VietNam. I use motocylce inner tube. It is ok

[@cacesrio]

@@dgd8104 a remote control button works well too.

[@zelkoperik8951]

where did you get the replacement button from please?

[@cacesrio]

You better cut and use an old remote control button and seal it with a fluid silicone glue instead.

[@user-rc8eq9jq4f]

what an awesome video can i do the same with my garmin 1000 or would it be a different technique also where did you by the rubber from?

[@nguyenthaihoa8134]
