 |
|
My daughter's TT One v3 is not very well!
Plugged into to either car or PC, it will not switch on and the green light next to power button is NOT lit up.
This doesn't seem very good to me and I am am fearing it's a goner. One thing I could try would be a new battery, but, I am concerned that that would be just wasting money. The lack of green light would, to me, seem to indicate no power is getting into unit.
Anyone got any suggestions?  |

No green light is not a good sign.
All I can suggest is that you try taking it apart, disconnect the battery and then try powering it from the USB or car charger again.

Yes, have tried one in the car that works fine for my other TT.
Have also tried USB lead to PC. Just tried 2 others.
Pretty sure that's not the problem.
My daughter says it keeps falling off windscreen, so, suspect the connections to USB socket have been damaged |
