Need Help: Garmin edge 205 stops recording on its own

[gregD]

It seems lately that my edge 205 stops recording data on its own.

I think mostly it happens if I am stopped for more that a few minutes but not 100% sure. I read online that vibration can cause it to stop too. I guess that could be a result of me now hitting small stunts and drops with my new AM bike (I mount the unit to my stem).

There is one setting training>autopause/lap>auto timer pause that I found that might be relevant, but that is set to off.

I tried restarting to factory defaults and flashing the firmware.

Just started happening. It used to keep running no matter how long a stop.

Is it dying?

does the whole screen go off or just stops recording? If is just stops recording does it ever start again on its own? Maybe the start/stop button is bouncing contact.

It just stops recording. I think it happens mostly when I stop for a while though. it doesn't start again until i manually start it again.
