Unable to turn off my 550 Live...

[jonbaker12345]

This afternoon I've experienced a problem with my TT 550 Live. When I turn off the 550 it does turn off, but within a few seconds it turns itself back on.

I've looked through the menu and sub-menus to see if I've changed a setting, but I can't see anything obvious. I've tried to find previous threads about this type of problem, but I haven't found a solution.

Any ideas?

Hold down the power button until you hear the TomTom drums. It should happen after about 15-20secs.

That is in effect a soft reset, see if that cures it.

I hope I'm not posting this too early, but your suggestion appears to have cured my problem. Thanks for that!!

Did I do something wrong, or is this a usual problem that crops up from time to time?

I think you can pit it down to a "glitch". I've heard of it happening a few times, not often enough to say it's a common issue, but the soft-reset cures many such ills.
