Our local maplins are good... but dont know if this is a national thing or not. They are very resonable too :y

Before you do anything drastic -- try the reset button. Mine "died" a while back, and a quick poke with a paper clip did wonders !
Check the instructions before prodding blind tho !! :y

Have you tried a reset?

Its common with TT's not to turn on.....give it a reset :y
Look for tiny button by cradle connector.....give it a poke with a paperclip while pressing the on/off button :y :y

dun that and no good.... :( :(

Never used these folks ... but they have had good reports from some folks on the sat-nav forums ...

Are you sure its charged up?
Both my TT's have done this several times......refused to turn on.
Pressing the on/off button and keeping pressed whilst poking a wooden kebab stick on the reset button has always done the job.......it doesnt turn on when you do this.......but pressing the on/off button afterwards turns it on

This is going to sound stupid -- but ... are you sure it was the reset hole you stuck the paper clip ( or whatever) in ?? There are other unrelated pin holes in the casing -- check instructions as to which one you should be poking :o ( been there ... done that :-[ )

Well, Tunnie was there and his reputation after a few drinks well, says it all!
Maplins are bloody pricey!
TT's have a known weakness relating to an internal regulator that fails resulting in only a green light.
