Has anyone experienced this before  ,
Just got into my 6 week old vehicle with premium sat-nav. Turned on the power and the 'Landrover logo' came up on the screen as usual, then I watched it fade and disappear leaving a totally blank (but still powered up) screen.
Pressing the buttons made no difference, nor did switching off and on the ignition a few times. But then I left the car for a few minutes, switched it back on and everything came back on as normal and it all appears to be working fine again.
I wondered if this was just a 'Landrover thing' or has anyone experienced this before.
I will take it back to the stealer as i'm off on holiday next week to the Netherlands and will need the sat-nav as I dont want to end up in Italy. Highbayrack, AKA; Betty Swollocks

Mine's done this twice in 18 months. Not a clue why, just ctrl-alt-delete and it's fine. Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.

Thanks stapidm,
Glad i'm not the only one.
What would we do without ctrl-alt-delete  I think i'll try it on my on-line banking in a minute, you never know, it might put money back into my account. Highbayrack, AKA; Betty Swollocks

Mine got me to Italy OK, a few roads it didn't know were there, but that's due to new roads & some smaller local roads. I also didn't need to set it to Netherlands in order for it to get here, so you should be alright.....   it! It's got a load of black bits on OK!!!
Campaign successful....
