Replace Tomtom V5 Digitizer

[MartinH]

So I dropped my Rider and cracked the glass digitizer.

I've looked on the web, I've found one place that sells them out of the UK.

Has anyone had to replace this before?

It looks like to do just the glass digitizer would need soldering. I can't do that sensitive a solder.

For a little more ($40 vs $12) I can get a new screen with the digitizer and just slip and replace. I'm thinking of going that route.

Any other ideas or places to get it fixed in the MD area?

Thanks

Martin

Not familiar with the TomTom digitizer replacement, but on the Zumo it is far less trouble to spend a few extra bucks and get the digitizer and screen assembly....... on the Zumo 550, the digitizer and screen have their own ribbon contacts which slip into a connector on the main board and clip to lock in. No soldering required. Don't know if that helps you..........
