Hi Folks. I own a Go910 and a GO950. The 910 works fine, but the 950 died on me after a recent trip to Europe. After seeking advice from TomTom and visting their head office in Amsterdam, I am no further ahead with a fix than I was on the day it died.
It seems that the fault may be the battery, as when I put it on charge, the light comes on, but I cannot get it to boot up, either when on the charger, or off it.
A repairer Down Under quoted a $100 to just let me know what the problem was, then plus what parts were required to fix it, so I declined.
Further advice from another source added that if the battery was dead, it would not boot up even when connected to a power source, so I removed the battery easily enough.
Problem is, locating a battery with the same Part Number.
The part number of the existing battery is AHL03711007. The only batteries I can find by searching online have the same number, apart from the last digit where the 7 is replaced by an 8.
Does anyone know if the one with the 8 will do the job, because I cannot find out, even from TomTom?
Any advice welcome. Thank you.
