Hello People,

What i done was i accidently selected the option that when headlights are turned on the night view automatically turns to night view mode.

Thing is i can't find the setting to change it back (undo it). When i press "Use Night Colours" it says "Link night view to headlights" so i cant get it back to normal to when i press "Use Night Colours" it will turn to night colours but it wont because of the setting i accidently pressed.

I want it so when i go to Menu - Change Preferences - and select "Use Night Colours" it will change to Night Colours like normal but it wont as when i press it it says "Link night view to headlights".

Can anyone help me get it back to normal again please?

I have a TomTom One V2 (New Edition) - Regional

Thank you,
Mat

Yes please!!!!

I'd love to know how to get round that one to prevent the searchlight effect in my car on display at night. Very Happy

Am i reading this right (probably not)? Some TomToms can tell if you have your headlights on?

No.

I updated mine to the latest version and now cannot activate the night time view as it displays as stated above -

"Link night view to headlights"

then goes back to normal and you can do nothing more.

I though it to be a bug and wait for a fix.

I haven't updated lately though.

There is / was an option to get the TomTom to switch the day/ night mode when the vehicle was fitted with a TomTom "Car Connect" although this accessory has not been available for the x10 and newer devices, it was muted on the TT web site for a while but has since disapeared.

For GeneralSkanky
If you have the menu option to "Restore Factory Defaults" try sellecting that and your manual day/ night control should return - Mike

Restoring defaults has worked.

Thanks for that.

When I did my backup on TomTom Home, in the 'Control One' menu, there was an option to link night view to headlights.

Anyway, all cleared and I'm on version 7.120 UK maps V2 TomTom One.
