    Ihave a rand mcnally 740 tnd, had it for a couple months now. All of a sudden i wake up to an expire certificates message, and nothing works on my rand anymore. Nothing maps or settings related will work. When i tqp on them, o get a 'no responding' message. Ive connected it to wifi and check for updates with no luck. Im currently trying to let it die, butbwhen it cant be used, its battery lasts foreverrrr. Any tips so i dont have to buy a new one?

    Is she passed out or hung over real bad? She likes to go out on Wednesday nights with the girls and she has a problem with drinking a few too many cosmopolitans. She knows she has a problem but she’s a fun drinker if you catch her just before she goes too far.

    Look for a reset button ,sometimes you have to push it with a ink pen. Good luck

    I've had this problem. A temporary fix is to use the Repair GPS app under truck tools. It'll work again for a week or two before you have to do it again. To fix the problem permanently you need to call Rand and hook up the GPS to a computer.
