Last week my two year old i3 made a sudden 'squawk' sound and has been silent ever since - no voice directions, beeps when I press the wheel, or speed camera alerts. This is the same if it is on battery or plugged into the car electrics or my PC.

How can I do a hard reset on these?

Does anyone offer a repair service and what sort of price would it be (being two years old the mapping is increasingly unreliable - it now often gets thrown by new stretches of road)? I am guessing that it won't be worth fixing.

Has anyone had a similar problem with these?

Same thing happened to my first i3, but fortunatly for me the unit was only a week old so it was replaced by halfords without hesitation. I can only suggest emailing the people at Garmin Europe and asking them; unless anyone else can help?

Might not be relevant, but I've noticed the spoken alerts stop when power is low using batteries.
