|
|
Hi,
I have TT Navigator 3 BlueTooth and TT holder for xda2. I used this last weekend for a trip to Wales. Plugged the lead that came with the Nav kit into the car charger from the holder kit. Assumed all was well - green light on cigarette socket plug - but the GPS receiver died on the second day the batteries having gone dead.
Am I right in thinking that the lead that came with the Nav kit is to charge the receiver in this way?
Cheers! |

When you unplug and reconnect the BT receiver to the charger, does the charging light come on? _________________ Lutz

Yes it does!!
I guess the receiver consuming more power than it is getting from the car charger? But surely the receiver should work on external power from the charger even with a discharged battery?
Cheers,

You may need to send your receiver in for a replacement. unfortunately there are plenty of stories like yours in our forum for the TT BT GPS... _________________ Lutz
