A one pound hammer usually does it for me...........no answer tbh, if its new charge it for a long time first, my tom tom wont work off the car charger, bought a new one still doesnt charge, so I have to charge it in house.

Sensible time how old is it? If you plug it into your laptop and run the Tom Tom software that should sort it mate. Unless the battery is fried

[Rev John Ripsher]

If the battery is fried it should still run off the mains?

Yes ... but you need a fookin long cable for most journeys!

Well that's only if the battery doesn't run off the mains.
If it does then it won't work at all because the charge can't power a fried battery.

Its a common problem with the new tom tom... I hope u have a back up cos it needs a reset

1. Plug in the mains.
2. Get a pin (or something really thin) and press the reset button (should be located under your SD card slot)
3. Keep pressing the reset button and also press the power button until it comes on.
