I've been getting a message on my GTN-650 that states:
DATA LOST
Pilot stored data was lost. Recheck settings.
I stopped in the Garmin booth at OSH and nobody could tell me what was causing this message. (I had already checked and saved all my settings)
I called and talked with a support engineer. He believes its a battery issue, which requires sending the unit into Garmin for service. It also requires a $975 service fee.
I'm having heartache having to spend an AMU on a battery replacement. Has anyone had this issue?
I know that opening the case will void any warranty, which technically I don't have any longer. But I image that replacing a battery can't be a big deal. Has anyone attempted a battery replacement on a GTN-650?
