Your Garmin Vivoactive 4 may not be charging due to several possible reasons:
1. Outlet or Charging Cable Issues – Check if the power outlet is working by testing it with another device. Also, inspect the charging cable and adapter for any damage. 2. Dirty Contacts – Clean the charging contacts on both the watch and the cable using rubbing alcohol to remove dirt or debris. 3. Software Glitch – Try holding the upper button while plugging the watch into a computer USB port. After 30 seconds, release the button and see if the watch turns on. 4. Hardware Failure – If none of the above solutions work, it may be a hardware issue, and the watch might need professional repair or replacement.
