Garmin Edge 510 repairs?

    The USB port on my Garmin 510 has come loose and it will no longer charge or connect to my PC. Which is annoying...

    Anyone know if it's an easy fix and where I could get it done? I'm in Dublin/north Kildare.

    I'd rather not go to the hassle of posting it off to Garmin and not seeing it again for six weeks.

    Thanks

    I'm not 100% sure about the 510 but I looked at trying to repair my 500 and found very little on the net. If you can get a small enough torx bit to fit the screws, then you could open the case and have a look yourself, but if it is still under warranty I would just send it back to Garmin. This seems more hassle, but their service is good, and fast

    Chinese man in the Albert Walk, close to the Dart station in bray, does these type of repairs. Think he was about 1/3 of the price Garmin quoted a friend of mine.

    Thanks for the replies. I dropped it into a laptop repair guy in Celbridge who insists he can do it and for a third of what Garmin quoted. We'll see if he's right when I pick it up tomorrow!
