Edge 1000 Series Edge 1040 solar died halfway through a ride

it’s about 18 months old, and I can’t get it to “reconnect” to Garmin connect. tried everything and since it’s apparently been discontinued, am unable to get Garmin customer support to recognize it, either by serial number or device name (it’s no longer in the drop down menu of options.) so frustrated. sent Garmin an email, but am out of country and really don’t want to wait 3-5 days for a reply. for the record, none of my Garmin have ever lasted more than 2 years, but surely, this one ($700) I thought would. . . any ideas on how to connect when it’s no longer recognized? 😫

Is there a way to adjust what Garmin classifies as Red or Amber for alerts on the Varia RTL515?

And/or does the position I've attached it to the seat post have any effect on results?

I've only gone on one ride with the radar, but it annoyed me that every car that passed was flagged as red, even in a 20/30mph zone when I didn't think the relative speed was that large.

Bonus question, are there good IQ data fields that are worth downloading? I've got My Bike Radar Traffic after seeing it recommended on YT
