Hadn't used my FL2 for a couple of weeks and as I was prepared for the Tom Tom to fall asleep, about a week ago I went out to turn on the ignition to prevent it from doing so.
Alas too late, it had already gone to sleep.
Now as it's retrofitted into the dash, it's a stripping job to get behind it to reset the on/off button.
I tried disconnecting/connecting it [where it's wired in nr the fuse box].
Also tried switching ignition on & off in quick succession.
I even hoped it would come on whilst out driving yesterday.
Unfortunately though Tom Tom is still asleep.

So before I get the tools out, does anyone have any tips on how to waken it without taking out the dash?



btw, only did 1 mile in the two weeks - to the car pressure wash & back!  FL2 now gone and have a couple of items left for sale:-

Brodit active iPhone holder + Brodit dash clip,
Bluetooth Music Streaming Module.

No, you have to press the wake-up button. But I managed to do this without taking it out - I was able to get a hand behind somehow and press. Can't remember how much dismantling I needed to do, but it was relatively simple. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone
300TDi Disco (bought new - terrible car) sent back after 18 months
Freelander 1 Estate - leased, given back at end of lease
200TDi Disco (bought from a mate with 100,000 on the clock) - Gone
Disco 2 TD5 - sold and exported to France
FR2 TD4 GS - Gone
FR2 SD4 HSE - Now changed for a DS
New model ex-demo Evoque S 180 in white
Unable to order a new DS, so gave up. Now have a Volvo S90 Recharge.

Thanks for that.

Yes no real big deal in stripping it down, had the thing out umpteen times, just preferred an easier way if there was one!
