Sat nav rebooting

Post by dirtymonkey29 » Sat Feb 04, 2012 10:23 am

Over the last two days, while driving my satnav has rebooted itself while driving. I usually have the screen on with mpg ave speed etc on split screen. Yesterday and today it's turned itself off and when it's come back on the gps on the right hand side of the screen is missing. Change mode to satnav and the screen just says please wait. Is this likely to be the nav unit not liking the cold or the maps disc which although is off the Internet has worked flawlessly for the last 12 months.
