    Used my GO 910 for six months in UK and France no problem (other than the useless power connector on the USB docking station). Last week it suddenly refused to turn on. I followed the TomTom reccommended reset procedure several times to no effect. Have emailed TomTom requesting return instuctions.

    My Tom Tom is getting power and the green light is lit, however the screen is dark. It has been getting power for hours but still is dark.



    Any suggestions?

I too have encountered this problem several times. Some steps to take would be... 1)Reset it with the paperclip in the small hole located just left of center on the front of the unit. 2)Consider your installation: I.e if it's installed on your cigarette lighter don't plug anything into it because you could short out TomTom. 3) I've had two units with failure for unknown reasons and they were promptly replaced.

after you found the back-up you can connect your TomTom Go to your computer using the USB provided from your TomTom Go, replace the doggie file with the new one, then this should change it back to the FIRST update given...

(WARNING >> PLEASE scan the file befor you put it in your TomTom Go it might contain a very very evil virus<< WARNING)

TomTom GO 910 won't turn on.
Two possibilities:
- if someone has used the wrong charger, and connected it to a 12V supply, the mainboard may be damaged. In that case, you need a replacement.
- the battery may be discharged. Even if the green light is on, it doesn't necessarily charge up. Try pushing it hard onto the mount for a few minutes, then see if it will turn on.

Tomtom GO 910 GPS stopped working
Mine is about three weeks old and just did the same thing. I ahd been using it while walking in a town in Germany. So I did not even have power/docking or PC problems.

I reset the unit with a paper clip. Look in the mounting opening at the lower rear of the 910, there is a small cut out. press this carefully, mine is now back to life and did not even lose my 'recent' list.

Unfortunately, when it comes to the PIN codes, if you do not remember the code, there is little that can be done. Usually you must enter the correct code, go to where it was set, or return the unit to the manufacturer.

hold the on button (top left skinny button) for 2 seconds. And if that doesn't work, use a TINY pin to reset the unit.
