I once had a problem like this with my tom tom--it needed to be "reset"
There is a small (pin size small) "button" on the underside. it needs to be pushed in with a pin or something of a similiar small size.

Its possibly broken, and don't call me a smart ***, I wasn't even going to offer my help!!
Try pressing the reset button for a couple of seconds. It would have helped if you had said which model it was and if it was new or used??

it will need to be reset. check with instructions about restting but its usually just a small hole in the side the you hold a pen too which should rest it for you.
good luck!
