Extreme Veteran  633   |  Subject: Taking apart a Forerunner 305Anybody know how to do this (take apart a garmin forerunner 305)? My enter button is becomming increasingly difficult to press. I have a feeling something just needs adjusted below the rubber part to re-engage the "button" on the circuit board. I can hardly press eneter anymore!  Edited by kevmk81 2009-07-10 8:41 AM |

I sent mine to Garmin and they sent me a refurbished one. |

I sent mine to Garmin and they sent me a refurbished one. That's what I was afraid of. Guess I'll be using a pen for now on to press the button. Hrmmm... bummer. |

Good luck! X2. Even though they knew mine fell of my bike, they covered it under warranty. Doesn't hurt to ask. |
