I purchased a Tom Tom Navigator Bluetooth version with the silver bluetooth tomtom unit.

Set everything up ok, the unit was just finding its first fix which it did.

However, when I came back to the unit it has a continous red led where the bluetooth light was. I am also unable to turn the unit off by pressing the power button.

I do not know if it makes a difference but I did not charge the unit before I tried to do the first fix.

Is the battery dead or is it a bigger problem.

Thanks

Melvyn

You made my day... A dead battery on these units is pretty much the biggest problem you can have, since the battery is not replaceable.

Please do not try to use the unit until the battery is fully charged for the first time.

But since you have done that already, disconnect the unit from the power supply , let it run out of whatever jiuce is left, then reconnect power and pray that this time the battery will charge fully. Give it at least 6 hours charging time. Just try not to touch it ;-)
