i have a version 1 tomtom and it wont power up so striped it down and here is the power board
i have a feeling that the arrowed item may be faulty (i cannot see a fuse) does anybody know what it is or can they see a fuse


i know there is a fault on the ear phone socket but that wont stop it so disregard
that please

thanks ppl
 
could be a link, does it measure short left to right ?
 
Having 4 connections makes me think it could be a choke/coil which would appear to be open circuit.
Seems to be marked L1 so could be the case.
Is pin 3 going to the anode of that top diode?, hard to tell from the photo.

I would check those diodes out as well mate, coils normally burn out for a reason.
