Title: Garmin Rino 600 series repair?
Post by: predatormode on November 18, 2020, 05:28:11 PM
I have 2 garmin rinos, 1 has just a white screen when I turn it on, it transmits, but no visible touch screen. My other one transmits and shows display, but the touch screen is not responsive. I called garmin about both of them, but since the 600 series of rinos is no longer manufactured, they dont offer any repair/replacement. I thought about throwing them out, but theres gotta be somebody that is tech savvy enough to fix at least one of them, I live in the vancouver area, but would be willing to ship if anyone on here knows of anyone, or a business that could possibly restore them for me? any help would be appreciated

Thanks

Don’t throw them out.  The new ones are super slow to charge - I use the old ones just to charge the batteries.   Have 2 new ones and neither can charge their battery worth a darn.

Call the collar clinic. I know they mainly do training collars but they might point you in the right direction. 800-430-2010

I had a similar issue with a Garmin Rino 650.  Garmin also said that they didn't have any repaired/refurbished units.  But they did offer me 20% off a new 700 series or I could trade the 650 in and get a refurbished 755T for $130.  If you want shoot me a PM with your email, and I will forward the e-mails I had with with them.

Could have swore that the op said they wouldn't repair it.  :bash:

Garmin told me same thing I sent them in and they still were repaired  I’d call again
