Replacement battery for Tomtom Go 500?

[adslimq2]

My wife's got a Tomtom Go 500 that's just over 2 years old, with a dead battery.

I'm not allowed to pull it apart until I have a replacement battery (and instructions) ready to go, so I'm not even sure what type of battery it has.

Can anyone help me with info - where/what to get, and how to replace it?

Thanks!

You can get replacement batteries and tools to open the case off feebay.

There are several 'how to replace tomtom battery' tutorials on youtube.

Yes, thanks. I've done that before, but this time I don't know what I'm looking for.

Google & ebay turn up two battery types, flat or cylindrical. Anyone know which specific one?

Thanks

To answer my own question (in case anyone else is searching) I took it apart and was told this was the required battery
