ive tried using the hair dryer but to no avail
I dropped my tom tom sat nav in a bucket of floor cleaner. does anyone know how i can get it working again?
If you don't have it on warranty you can try opening it up and washing it without the battery in distilled water or just plain bottled water if you can't get the distilled. Dry it out and let it sit for a few days, inspect the battery/power contacts and clean if needed.
Finally try powering it up, if it wasn't permanently damaged when dropped in the bucket, if it was on it's more likely it's dead, it might come back. The cleaner could have caused corrosion or build up to form on contacts, just drying it without cleaning out the cleaner might not be enough which is why I'd advise the distilled water to flush out the cleaner.
It's still a long shot but the only one I see you having, if it doesn't work the last thing I'd try is rinsing it again in distilled water and using a stiff plastic brush on the components to try removing any dried/caked on residue.
