TomTom VIA 1605TM Speaker Replacement

Introducción

The TomTom VIA 1605TM, along with all GPSs, needs a sound function for when the user can't take his/her eyes off the road to get directions. This guide will help replace that. When prying do not use metal tools as this can cause static damage. Avoid direct contact on the pad of the speaker as this could damage it. The device can be identified by its model number which is located under the small panel on the bottom of the device.

When reassembling push back into connector. Do not need to pinch anything. The "click" sound insures solid connection.
