Hi All.

I've just broke the power cable for my TomTom3 car kit, it has a blue lable with 4A00.003 on it. have had a look for this and no luck, thought I'd ask the experts

Hello Colin009,

Try e-mailing or ringing some of the companies that are around this forum screen, most of them sell replacement parts, i am sure that they can help you.

This is also the part no of the power lead for the ttgo what about trying TomTom repair!! Which part have you broken? is a repair or modification possible .When looking for a replacment you need to check how far the cigar plug protrudes out from the dash as on my car the gear stick hits on anything other than the latest lead but may not be an issue on yours.

Hi - I have exactly same cable for TTN Part No. 4A00.003
After only two months use - it failed - luckily I had arrived at my destination.
Don't buy another cable - I Have fixed mine.
Undo the philips screw in the cigar lighter connector and also unscrew the tip of this connector using a pair of pliers.
lever off the chrome ring around the tip and you will now be able to open the lighter connector assembly - CAREFUL!!! - a small hex nut will fall out.
Inside is a fuse - mine was intact - BUT the +12V (Red Wire) had become detached from the fuse spring.
A severe lack of solder here!!!! - I resoldered using plenty a re-assembled - a bit fiddly - but hey presto it all works fine.
Saved me £17.00 or so!!!
Regards
John Laughing
