Garmin Fenix not charging (Fixed)
Frozen Screen or Unresponsive to Button Presses
The device performs very slow, freezes up, and does not respond.
Too Many Operations
A frozen device could be caused by the watch performing several tasks at the same time. Before resetting the device, wait a few minutes and try again. If the device is still unresponsive try resetting it.
To perform a master reset: Ensure the watch is powered off. Press and hold the DOWN button. Power on the watch while continuing to hold the DOWN button.
The device will not charge.
Faulty USB Adapter
Check to make sure the USB adapter is plugged in. If it is, make sure the adapter is attached tightly to the back of the device. If the adapter is snug and plugged in, check for and clear any debris on the contact points on the back of the device. After doing all of this and the device still does not power on or charge, consider purchasing a replacement adapter.

Hi,
I connected a Fenix2 to the charger while was wet! It immediately turned off and doesn't turn on at all. What should I do now?

My Fenix 2 watch immediately shuts off as soon as I unplug it from the charger even when the battery is fully charged… Please help.

I had exactly this issue. It happened when I unplugged my Fenix 2 from a USB charger that supports 1A or 2A - it’s selectable. I tried charging the watch using my PC USB port and now it’s charged and working fine without the charging cable.

My Fenix2 screen goes blank and the watch restarts whenever I try to start recording an activity. Any suggestions?
Thanks

And it's fixed and never changes.

@GabrielL I have exactly the same symptom as you. I’m guessing the battery has failed but before I go for a replacement I’m going to try a factory reset.
My fenix 2 is about 4 years old.

This is actually a question, rather than a comment. I have had a Fenix 2 since Christmas 2015, and it has served me well. Recently, however, the top right button (Start/Stop) has stopped working. I push it and nothing happens. Thus, I can no longer use many of the most-used features of the watch any longer. Is there a way to problem solve this?

I am unable to accept updates with my Garmin Fenix 2 sports watch when I sync with Garmin connect? Is there something wrong with the transfer cable or the garmin software? Please advise?
