| It wasn't 3:26am in the US. It was between 6:26pm and 9:26pm depending on your timezone in the US. If in California it would have been right in the middle of the evening rush hour. |

Being a European company they probably thought for their maintenance it would be better in the small hours in Europe.

It would help us if you added your location to your profile.

I've just had Error 1001 (SIM Card Fault) on a new TomTom750 LIVE straight out of its box.
Having spoken to TT Customer Support, it's a 'known problem'.
The way it was explained to me it's almost as if it's 'pot luck' if a new unit suffers from this fault or not.
However, Amazon have already sorted a replacement & will be with me in a day or so!

| The fix seems to be to switch the unit off (maybe after totally draining the battery) and then driving at least 2 or 3 miles with the unit off. Switch on and wait. |

Thanks Paul,

Ah ok, I wondered if you had meant it for another thread.

?? If you did a search for "1001" there are two threads in the top ten results that specifically mention the error message in the subject title!! Always would a quick search on keywords before posting. |
