The battery in my Magellan Maestro 3140 does not keep a charge. Can the battery be replaced?
Yes, the batter can be re placed, but i would verify its charging before buying a battery.
make sure green light is on the car charger (or a known good charger0 and let it plugged in for awhile, then hold the power button (up to ten seconds) until it starts..
after its started, go to the system setting. the battery meter should be moving left to right. if its all green and turns off when unplugged, the battery needs replaced.
your part # for your battery should be
37-00030-001you can get a battery HERE but verify your unit with the seller.
if it only has a few bars and is not moving while plugged it, it is not charging.
this is a very common problem for the models listed below.
the
following magellan 2000, 2200t, 2500, 3000, 3100, 3140, 4000, 4040, 4050 and the
