One of my GT31 (old maybe year and half) just turned of, and there is no chance to turn it ON. Please if you have some tips or you can help me, I will be thankfull :)
I tried with USB cable (to get power from PC) and no chance to turn it on, any other suggestions ?
Regards
There's just been a news item here about what happens to lithium batteries if you store them too long at low charge.
www.news.com.au/technology/who-killed-the-electric-car-you-perhaps-if-you-didnt-charge-it/news-story/30eb09156a9b1794bd133174f6b5f41b
Looks like you may have to change the battery.
Loco systems have a history of being helpful
If it's under warranty, send it back.
If not, pull apart, disconnect battery, reconnect battery, try to turn on again.
Sorry, misunderstood, for some reason I thought your problem was it wouldn't charge.
With Nebs here, they can lock up, (but I haven't heard about one locking off), only removing power will reset it.
Like Decrepit said Locosys are really helpful, go to their website and register a problem, someone will email you within a couple of days.
got that device today
battery have 3V (don't have info what battery is inside GT, what voltage and mAh)
info will be good to have it here
so, gt is OFF
If I connect it to USB there is no red led turn on to charge, and via 220V same thing
inside there is no sighns of any corrosion, tried to charge without battery, and without sd card
same thing, no chance to turn it ON
warranty is passef over 3 months :(
any other tips to do?
so what did locosys say?
Even though it's out of warranty, they'll still be helpful.
I'm too busy now, but I'll check my battery voltage later.
if I send it to Taiwan and pay way shipment back,
I think that is twice cheaper to buy new one, right ???
