1304203833 97 Is there a way to fix my Garmin GPS that c340 I accidentally put into my washing machine?

Yes you read correctly (insert everyone laughing at me here).

I accidentally washed my Garmin c340 GPS in my washing machine (water, spin cycle and all). I tossed the GPS into my laundry basket to put it back into my car (my garage is right next to my laundry room so i thought I would save a trip up and down the stairs). But on the way down to my laundy room, I put my laundry basket down for a few minutes, grabbed the basket 10 min later and forgot about the GPS nestled in the basket corner and dumped everything into my washing machine to be washed.

Do note that I caught this little accident BEFORE I put anything into the dryer.

But needless to say my GPS will not turn on at all.

I tried opening up the unit and drying it in the sun for 2-3 hours. But I didn't have any luck getting the unit to turn back on.

I also simply plugged it into its cradle and tried charging it back up. No luck here either.

I called Garmin today and they told me that it would cost $150 to repair it. Heck, I could just purchase a brand new Nuvi 200 for $150 currently at Walmart.com.

So I thought I'd post here to see if anyone had any other ideas that I could pursue that I hadn't thought of.

Thanks for any help or ideas.

I would search eBay or Craigslist to see if you can buy a used replacement for $100 or less. the damaged is done and no use crying over spill milk, just take the lost and move on.
I would recommend you to consider buying the Nuvi 260 or Nuvi 260W if you are used to the C340 since the Nuvi 200 does not have Text to Speech feature like you had on your Garmin Nuvi C340.

Sorry for your lost, but it could have been worst.

Each of these prophecies start with Ot, the prophecy and the NT fulfillment scripture…….Micah 5:2—-Born in Bethlehem—Luke 2:4-7………Isaiah 7:14—-To be born of a virgin—Luke 1:26-31…….Jeremiah 31:15—-slaughter of the innocent–Matthew 2:16-18…….Hosea 11:1—-flight to Egypt—-Matthew 2:14-15…….Malachi 3:1—preceded by a forerunner–Luke 7:24-27………Psalm 2:7–declared the Son of God–Matthew 3:17……..Psalm 41:9—-betrayed by a friend—Luke 22:47-48…..Zechariah 11:12–sold for 30 pieces of silver–Matthew 26:15……Isaiah 53:12–crucified with malefactors– mark 15:27-28……Isaiah 50:6 spat upon and smitten–Matthew 26:67…….Zechariah 12:10—pierced through hands an feet–John 20:27……..Psalm 22:7-8–scorned an mocked– Luke 23:35……Psalm 69:21 given vinegar and gall–Matthew 27:34……..Psalm 22:17-18–soldiers gambled for his coat–Matthew 27:35-36……….Psalm 34:20—No bones broken–John 19:32-36……….Zechariah 12:10–His side pierced–John 19:34…….Isaiah 53:9—buried with the rich—Matthew 27:57-60……..Psalm 49:15—to be resurrected—Mark 16:6-7………Psalm 68:18—-His ascension to God's right hand mark 16:19…………Those are only a few prophecies that have been fulfilled……the next prophecy will be the Rapture of the church….with much studying you can learn !

Those Old Testament prophecies were not fulfilled by jesus. Isaiah 7:14 (origonial Hebrew) Asuradly, my Lord will give you a sign of his own accord! look, the young woman is with child and about to give birth to a son. let her name him Immanuel. psalm 2:7 is speaking of King David not jesus. you must be reading a king james version.

LOL. That's an interesting way to spell "deny."
The rest is just nonsense. Why do you fall for this stuff?
Edit: At least if I eat my words they'll be spelled correctly.

maybe because there is no historical evidence about it…
