So before you install a map check if the codes are available.

Ok will do. doesn't the automatic map patcher do that for you when it downloads the meta.txt. Before it patches it?

Just checked the maps on here I see what you mean you need to make sure it has a meta.txt underneath the download link will try that tonight. Is that why I have problem with uk postcodes ?

You have problems because the map you selected can not be activated, your device must use some other map and into that folder you have to put the post codes.

The meta code must be available for the patcher to find it & use it.

2. Copied from post 11. Extract and copy the "Zip" folder to the root of your TomTom. The file will create it's own folder when it is unzipped. The zip folder should be where the navcore is, internal or on a card.

Look in Main Menu, TomTom Services.
