Little TomTom problem

Hello all, this is probably a silly question with a simple answer but here goes. My tomtom 1XL, new at Xmas, will now only switch on when connect to a external power source. Have had it on charge but makes no difference. Any suggestions please. Thanks,Eddie.

Does it power off immediately external power is removed? How old is it? What charger(s) do you have 12v and 240v or just the car one?

Hi Darren, Thanks for your quick reply. I have now resolved the problem. I simply removed the card and replaced it and hey presto, it switched on. I do only have the car charger, and the PC at the moment but intend to get a mains one . Why I didn't think to try that a week ago I dont know,put it down to age. Cheers, eddie.

Hello again, Thanks for that link Richard, interesting. I have just tried switching it on again and blow me it's refused again. So, the problem is still there and thinking about it it did start after I downloaded updates from TT home. Looks like I need to do a reset as mentioned in your link.
