    Good day,

    I have a Garmin Montana 600t, unfortunately I’ve left batteries in it and they leaked out. Is there anyway of saving this device? Or can you replace the board in these units or is it even feasible.

    Thanks for the assistance,

    Jordan

    I think it depends how well you can clean away the residue, if the 600t is working I would be inclined to try and clean it, I don't personally think it is viable to get the main board changed as Garmin would almost certainly want to also replace the case and the cost would be more than a new unit anyway
