The battery does not turn on, charge or discharge.Updated 13 days ago

Possible Causes

  • The battery may have been over-discharged from not being charged or placed into storage mode.
  • Physical damage from impacts or drops could also be the cause. 
  • Additionally, water damage may occur if the battery box was not properly locked.

Actions

  • Always remember that batteries must never be stored empty and should be placed into storage mode after use. 
  • If the batteries are over-discharged, they must be replaced.
  • Inspect the battery for any physical or impact damage, such as dents or scuffs. If it is damaged, the battery needs to be replaced.
  • Check for corrosion on both the battery connector and the battery box connector. If there's corrosion, you need to replace the battery and/or the battery box.
  • Verify that the charging dock is functioning by testing it with a spare battery.

If the issue persists, the ESC on the mast likely needs to be replaced. Before proceeding, you can test with a different e-mast to confirm whether the battery is functioning properly.


Important: Batteries must be fully charged and placed into storage mode every three months. The most recent charge cycle date is recorded on the carton near the barcode.
