I had the same problem with a 750.
I cured it (accidentally I must add) by inserting a memory card.
I guess the last time I connected and disconnected the 750 it had a memory card in and without one inserted it would not recognise the device.
Strange reason but worked for me.
turn device over and look for tiny reset button near to power connect strip. then use a blunt safety pin to reset,this should allow you to then turn it on,this works on 500 ,700 ,900 , 510 , 710 , 910 , hope this helps .
Hi,
Press the power button for 15 seconds and your tomtom will turn on with the drum sounds yor tomtom will now reset but nothing will be deleted off it and it will now hope fully work.
Hi Juanin, just posted this for a near identical problem with a Tomtom 700;
When you get this kind of problem with a Tomtom device always start with the memory card, so:
1: remove the card, clean the contacts and if you have an air duster (available from any good hardware store/electronics store) clean the card slot, then reinsert it.
2: make sure the card is readable on your PC to ensure it doesn't have a problem. if this doesn't help then
3: format the card and reinstall the maps & software on to it.
4: make sure the card is reinserted correctly.
Next is the battery, leave the device switched on until the battery runs out, switch it on again and it should stay on for a moment then switch its self back off, repeat this until it will not switch on anymore and then charge it for at-least 16 hours before trying it again, this will re-calibrate the battery.
Diagnosing a problem is a process and this is just the start of it, don't be disheartened if this doesn't help, just message back with the results.
