Garmin GMA 340 buttons

[wburger1]

Anyone else have problems with their Garmin 340 buttons.  I have to push the com and nav buttons several times to get them to come on and off.   Any suggestions?  Tried re-seating it and that did not help.

Thanks.

Try electronic cleaner, spray and repeatedly press the buttons.

Do you disassemble the front cover of the 340 or just spray it in the panel as is?

[ArtVandelay]

Try it without disassembling, if it doesn’t work, then take off the front plate.

I will be back to my Mooney next week and try that.  Thank you.

Never had a problem with my 36 years old KMA24 audio panel.

Somewhere around here is a discussion on Garmin buttons...

not sure which device they were on... but cleaning and exercising them was key...

Best regards,

had the same issue.  I think my shop swapped it for another from Garmin or had mine overhauled.  Works like new now.

Well I cleaned it and I still have a few buttons that do not work.  Thinking of getting a PMA8000G.

Worked like a charm.
