The following advice pertains to the following magellan gps systems.
Magellan 800, 860, 2000, 2200t, 2500, 3000, 3050, 3100, 3140, 4000,
4040, 4050 and 6000t
i fix these and many other magellan
gps daily so when considering
my advice , please understand i do not google my solutions.
assuming your car charger is working (the little green light is on) and
your magellan still wont start up after holding the power button while
its
plugged in for up to ten seconds and still does not start..read below
this
is actually a very common problem with these magellan power
ports...they are poor quality from the factory and always and i mean
always fail..the new ports that you find on ebay are 100% better then
the factory port.
if your able to replace that power port
yourself, you can get one HERE, if not, ask the fellow that
sells them for help.
due to some dubious "experts" on fixya, im
not permitted to help you directly, but please follow the link above to
get further help.
let me know if
you need more help or info

sorry, i misread your question..to charge a 3140, you need either the car charger or home charger and plug it in the side (little round hole under the headphone jack) andlet it charge atleast 4 hours to be fully chargered
you can NOT use a USB type charger on a 3140 so disregard any advice to do so
