Had for bout yr loved it used it eveery where i went, took a left turn, as per tom tom and then looked up and she was gone!!! just like that looked for a model num and none also no reset buton. held power button and still nothin lost the cord that goes to com hmmmmm
Test your Power Cable for Voltage Out. If it is working properly, then your TOM TOM bit the dust but I am thinking that you are out of Power and will not turn back on unless you get her charged up.
If it is charged up, then PUSH and HOLD the POWER BUTTON for 30 Seconds and this is how you RESET the GPS.
If resetting does not work, and you have Power. Time to get a new GPS. Sorry

Possible some wiring is burning or melting from under the dashboard have it checked again, the smell does it seem like burnt rubber or plastic?
Have it checked since you mentioned that the lights has gone. see the fuses as well just to be sure.
Better get an expert check it to be sure that nothing will be missed on the issue. If it is a wiring issue then the best thing is have the electrical rewired for best results.
look for a small hole on the outside case near the sd card reader. might need a paperclip or pin to poke the microswitch inside the hole. simply clicking the switch doesn't work, try holding it for 5 seconds then try to power up. Common problem with GPS devices, (my mio included) is after being plugged in for a long time, the battery life becomes nil and it relies upon the charger. Check tom to xl for further problem solving. google search TOM TOM XL won't power up.
i did a download then a update and then a restore and still it will not start have used reset button get tom tom screen thats all will not turn off have to press reset key to turn off. please help thanks stuart.
turn device over and look for tiny reset button near to power connect strip. then use a blunt safety pin to reset,this should allow you to then turn it on,this works on 500 ,700 ,900 , 510 , 710 , 910 , hope this helps .
My daughter has a Nokia 5300 that she loves. She also loves to play Tetris on it constantly. The left soft key on hers went as well. It became spongy and unresponsive. I took off the cover to have a look, but the problem went deeper than the button. I took it back for repair. Luckily it was still under warranty. Sounds like you may need to do the same. Sorry.
stevi at the back of your tom tom where your windscreen dock goes there is a small rubber bumper if you look to the right and down you will see the reset button it is a small hole above the dock socket. sandy
As i mensioned before, i encountered the same problem. However, after i finished installing all the available updatings, the problem just gone. No such 'no map' error message anymore and it just works properly as before.
