Tom tom 630 problem

Postby Tramshed64 » Sat Jan 02, 2016 10:37 am

Hi I have a tom tom 630 I recently updated navcore to 9.702 & updated truck maps to Europe truck 960_782. All seemed fine but now it sometimes suddenly shows nothing on the screen just a red background with lines running from top to bottom and I have to restart the unit after which it works fine again.
Anyone have an idea what could be wrong?

Europe truck 960.7082 is compatible with navcores 9.702 & 9.701. This is clearly stated in the yellow info box at the bottom of the 960 Compatibility Charts.
You didn't mention that you had 9.701 in your " Some help needed please" thread.

I have not seen this problem. Put 9.701 back in & let's see what it does.

Well my sat nav is still playing up. Have decided to get another one after speaking with someone who deals with them and they said they had a similar problem with the same symptoms they tried all sorts of software fixes and decided it was probably a main board problem.just seems odd I had no problems till I updated the maps but I guess nothing lasts forever! At learn I learnt a lot about them from the help on this forum thank you all for your input will be back next time I need a map update
