Garmin GPS keeps shutting off
I have a garmin 172C. Moisture forms on the inside of the screen after being stored for a while. When the boat is uncovered the moisture will go away after a while.
Yesterday it kept shutting itself off after a few minutes. After being on the water for a few hours the problem stopped.
How can I keep this moisture from forming in the unit? I was thinking of putting some silicone around the case where the seam is.
