Put the SatNav disc disc in and all should be OK. There appears to be a fair amount of the "Operating System" on the disc. Let us know how you get on

Well Done Nigel! - I've been out gardening since my first reply to you so missed your difficulty in retrieving the disc from the defunct unit. Unfortunately there is no equivalent to "using a straightened paperclip" ( PC drives ) that I have found for the B9004 so your solution was probably about the only one available to you..

I changed my B9004 to a Sony removable HDD based system with Tom-Tom maps about 4 years ago. The updates are much less expensive than the Toyota ones but I still like the Toyota display when driving on a motorway - where it tells you of the upcoming junctions and services miles ahead - VERY useful when driving on the continent. One word of warning about the updates for the B9004, don't be tempted by the spurious updates available on er, a certain on-line auction site - they just don't seem to work!

Just use Sygic on tablet, free tom tom map upgrades, 3d junctions cheap headup addon.
