Hi,

Tomtom 720 not picking up any satellites and black and yellow wheel not spinning problem

[Login or Register to remove this advertisement]


I found my parents old tomtom 720 while sorting through some bits for them. There was no SD card in it and nothing on the internal drive but I have used tomtom home to put the latest navcore on it (9.451 I think) and then patch it and put a UK map on it but it doesnt pick up any satellites and the little wheel on the satellite screen (yellow and black to the top right) goes not spin which I think means it isnt searching?? Is this the Sirl problem?

Also, it will boot up to the map and be ok for maybe 2 mins and then restarts. Is this part of the same problem as above or a different issue?

Any suggestions would be appreciated. If it is relevant, it probably hasnt been used for 4 years or more.

Thanks
