urgent help, tomtom wired GPS

#1 (**permalink**) 17-06-2005, 01:08 PM

Hi,

I was hoping someone could assist me with an issue I have with my wired Tom Tom GPS receiver, when I plug the GPS into the cradle it takes my receiver at least 10 - 15 minutes to lock on, is there anyway I can fix this issue? Any help/advice would be appreciated.

cheers
Craig

hmmm, thats odd....are you still experiencing this problem? Is your reciever placed in an obscured place? sorry for that odd question, but that has happened to me in the past.

If it's the pda version, have you turned it off then back on while there is power still being fed in by the cig lighter??

Hi, yes this problem has been ongoing for about a month, in the past it worked fine, i have tried all sorts like, soft reset, power off and on again, put the wired GPS on the car roof but the problem still persists. I thought maybe i could download some firmware for the tomtom wired GPS unit. I am using ttn3 with a dell x30.
