Issue #1
Attaching Go to cradle and selecting "Update My GO" returns error "Not a String" and will not update. I tried the fix ( http://www.tomtom.com/support/product.php?ID=232&Language=4&FID=9096 ) as instructed by TT tech support but error persists. I have turned off AV, SPYWARE, Firewall to see if they were interfering and same results. Uninstalled/reinstalled Home v2.2 with same results. I can operate Go normally via Home v2.2 but simply can't update. BTW, screen indicates 28 WEEKS of new Mapshare updates available or similar message but can't update.
Is discrepancy between versions on Go and Home the culprit??
Issue #2:
Recently developed issues with Go turning itself off frequently while traveling...even on very smooth road surfaces...and turned itself back on just to shut down again. Battery was fully charged prior to start of trip and within 4 hours was showing low battery. Connections checked and secure. Have made same 12 hour trip before with no issues. I have replaced original windshield dock with new FM transmitter about 3 months ago with no issues until now. Battery simply draining MUCH faster than its historical average. Charged battery yesterday for 4 hours, to fully charged, and this morning while simply sitting in vehicle was down to moderate orange charge range. Fully charged to moderate charge with ONLY 15 minutes of use yesterday.
Bad battery or is ? software error draining the power? BTW, unit seems to work properly as stand alone without being attached to windshield dock.
Unit is about 18 months old and really don't want to spend $$$ to repair a unit that is nearing end of warranty period?
Suggestion anyone?
Thanks,
Larry
