Replacing the Battery in a Garmin Forerunner Watch

posted 1 month ago

The battery in my Forerunner 305 no longer holds a charge and I am looking at replacing the battery myself. Has anybody ever replaced the battery in a Garmin Forerunner themselves before?

I looked into sending it back but it would cost almost about as much as buying a new one which is not ideal.

I found a couple good “tutorials”:

And just wondering if anyone has done anything similar or have any tips on doing this.

I’d like to hear your experiences.
