The car charger that came with my Garmin doesn't fit. Amazon told me I'd have to send back the entire thing. How can I replace just the charger?

the older style phone chargers work. there are millions roaming around. look for the type that match the one you got with the garmin. If you are missing the square piece that the charger plugs into. You'll have to order one.

That's pretty wild! The vehicle charger that came with the unit had some type of special reciever module in the middle of the cord used to update traffic. So you don't want to use any ol regular charger. Your best bet is to send back the entire package for a proper replacement. You might be able to order one directly from Garmin, but they'll probably charge you for it because it's not a warranty issue.

Which end of the charger are you speaking? If you are speaking about the small end, try fitting it into the square black piece which connects to the round end of the suction cup.

Just wanted to post that the problem is solved - the garmin charger was missing the head contacts and the fuse and wasn't charging the unit properly - thus not being able to turn on. Thanks for the input guys

You might check at an electronic store. The charger looks like it might be a sort of common item.

Try calling garman first and see if they will replace the one you have now. I did. I had to send old one back first, they then sent me a new one. As far as this one working with your gps, im not sure

There are many inexpensive chargers for USB devices available. All you need is the charging cable which should have come with the GPS. My GPS came with the charger. Generally the chargers are 5 volts with different current ratings. I would suggest one with at least a 1 amp output capacity.

same for me; it does not work; I ended up buying a Garmin charger (which was ~$20)

Well, that's why this needs to go to GARMIN direct for any & all issues. Not enough information to give a proper answer. BUT here are a few; DID THE GARMIN JUST NOT WORK, BEFORE YOU REPLACED THE BATTERY? NOW; try this, If you hook it in a cars cigaret lighter it gives a power source while charging the GARMIN see if that works. Remember this, very important, you can't leave a GARMIN or even a cell phone type device out in a car if its to HOT or to COLD // WHY, because it will cook the battery or freeze it will damage it. If you have a voltage tester type, test the battery voltage & or circuit. Could be a bad switch to. GOOD LUCK. Take care.

according to the product description it is NOT compatible to the nuvi 755 i would suggest that you do what i did and get a genuine Garmin charger which Amazon does sell if you get the eforcity product it may charge the battery but will not allow you to use the GPS while it is charging

I lost mine for the first one of these I had and just use an old phone charger with the correct size connector.Works perfectly.If you do not have one go to Goodwill or someplace similar, I am sure they have bins full of them.

I just ordered an AC charger for a Garmin GPS without any other specifications. Since it woks well with my Garmin, I'm sure it will work with yours. If you want to make sure, go to the Garmin website and ask the company.

I'm not sure if it will work with your GPS. If your old charger is charging the GPS, then it's a GPS issue.

interesting - this clip does not look anything like the 4 prong 'cradle' charger that came with the Garmin S1 golf watch. Are you certain this clip works? Wish they had better pics to view the other side of this clip

this is what I had to do after I bought this one and it was the wrong one, call the manufacturer of your computer and the part number needed for you to buy a replacement charger. Of course they will try to sell you one, but it will be cheaper on Amazon.

i don't own a garmin, I use it with my iphone 4s. the kit comes with several sheets of hard foam/rubber that you can cut/remove/form to allow a charger to plug it in. Hope that helps.

I have a Garmin Nuvi 200 and it fits fine. When the holder closes to fit a device it closes "evenly" which makes it a little difficult if using the charger BUT ONLY BECAUSE you need to remove the Garmin from the holder and plug charger up & then place it back in the holder. It was easier for me to remove the holder from the CD slot and reinsert it after the charger/Garmin were in place. All done in less than 1 minute. I would recommend this definitely....
