Just picked up a Garmin GPS and the thing wont turn on. I have tried to turn it on plugged into 2 different cars. Do these things need to fully charge before they will even turn on or will they turn on right away as long as theyre plugged in?

I have a TOM TOM and I opened the box and turned it on instantly?

When I got my Garmin, I let it charge for a bit by just plugging it into a laptop since I had the same type of power cord/connection. Let it sit for maybe 15 minutes and I could turn it on and change some settings, but the battery would die shortly after. Then I let it charge over night and I was good to go.

Should turn on upon plugging it in.
That is what mine does and my power switch is on the top left.
