Gents, bad day at the office. Thought I would spend an hour pokin holes in the sky, but when I powered up my (factory reman) Garmin 300xl would not cycle into nav mode and stayed black. After calls to Garmin it was determined that it was broke! 30 hrs on the box and out of warranty. Although not set up with IFR approach switches, it never allowed me to access GPS approaches and I wonder if this too was a symptom of a bad unit. Garmin charges $450 flat rate and the authorized dealers cannot repair. Only upside is it comes back to me with an updated card.
