|
|
Hi Guys
My tomtom screen stopped working today, well it works when it wants to.
I have done all the resets etc but it still doenst work properly, so am guessing will have to send it back to TomTom.
Is this an easy process, do I have to have an account with TomTom etc.
Cheers
Nigel |

Have you tried the trick of running a thin card between the touch screen and its bezel? This apparantly often works, as a bit of crud can get between them and act as a constant input. |

Also, if you have a screen protector on the unit, this can cause issues over time as it dries out, shrinks a bit, and causes pressure on the glass as if a 'ghost' was pushing the icons. _________________ David |
