Clean it- then put it on one of these-

Makes it a lot easier to toss under your seat when you park at the
mall-- and it doesn't leave that ring on your windshield that says
'break in and look under the seat'.

I use one if these for my Garmin GPS. There are adaptors for a couple of
different TomTom models.

My mount allows the power to be connected to the mount so that my Garmin
powers up as soon as I clip it in.

I also have one of these for my cell phone, but I have to plug the power
into phone manually.

One of ours was doing the same thing. I searched for replacements and
bought a clone for around $20. It looks just like the tomtom version
except it has a little lever on the base that pulls the disc out
creating a much better seal.

I've had one of those. It works as long as I don't expect it to stay
when the car is moving. Maybe if it weighed a few hundred pounds...

I use a suction cup mount with a little metal base that's stuck to the
dashboard with some really strong tape (you leave the base there). The
suction cup stays on there for more than a day. It's not too much work
to reattach it daily when needed.

I threw mine in the garbage. TomTom GPS's are garbage. Or maybe they
all are. I've been driving for over 40 years using free maps from the
local DMV. I dont need some costly piece of electronic crap nagging me,
particularly when the directions are often wrong. After my TomTom ONE
caused me to waste at least $30 worth of gas, and hours of time, I
deposited it in a dumpster at some gas station, after taking a hammer to
it. I will never buy another GPS.

Nym-shifted again. Who would believe you?

You sure you didn't hurt its feelings with
that hammer treatment? GPS are very sensetive.

You too? I am in and out of mental hospitals all of the time and didn't
know I had to open the box and turn it on. I was only imagining that it
was giving me instructions. I'll bet thats what happened to you.

I have a Garmin. I give the suction cup a quick lick to make it stick, a trick I learned with my suction cup bow-and-arrows back in the 1950's.

Does your Garmin shoot peoples eye out?

It is a very good idea to never purchase electronic devices or tools that
are above your level of understanding.

Steve

You can pick up a device with suction cup and clamps (meant to hold various size devices) at hardware stores (Canadian Tire if you're in Canada), or check an auto stereo shop. They work quite well.
