My Zumo 400 is no longer charging from the bike but works off the internal battery only. I checked all the connections/fuses and everything seems fine.
Before I go ahead and order a replacement cradle does anyone around the Dublin area have a cradle (for the 400 500 of 550) that I could pop my GPS unit into to confirm if it is the cradle or the unit itself that is faulty.
 
Cradle

Just took it to bits again and noticed that some of the tracks on the ribbon cable supplying power to the connectors are flucked. I hear that there is a work around by reversing the cable but I would rather have a new one as the unit is important to me and I just picked a new one up on Ebay for £50 delivered to Ireland.
 
I am in Terenure if you want to try mine.

Hope you get it sorted.
 
Next time you have a defective part try ringing Garmin Customer Service. Happened twice to me now out of warrenty and I have contacted them. They are keen to get broken bits to see what went wrong and they will send you a new part FOC :D
