Powering up question


 

I am a 6 month old x6100 owner. I have been experiencing failure on powering up. ?It first did the powerup and a few seconds after powering up ?it ?powers off suddenly. ?Now it just gies me the green light and then nothing happens. ?I am thinking bad battery, how can i prove this? ?Where do i get a battery? ? What steps are needed to replace the battery? ? Thanks in advance, i am a newby!!


 

Have you tried to power it up using an external battery or power supply? Don't use the charger that came with it for this test. Use the extra power cable that came with the radio. If it powers on with external power your internal battery could be bad. If it doesn't you have other issues to look in to. Also if you bought it from Radioddity, they offer a warranty on their products. Contact them as 6 months is well within their 1.5 year warranty for the x6100.


 

As suggested power the X6100 from a 12V external power source to check if the rig is really working and you dont have the power up problem.

The internal battery has given some an issue.? It might fail after a number of charge and discharge cycles.? Also charge it with rig off from an external 12V source.? After the panel LED stop then charge for additional 2 or so hours to give the internal battery a full charge.

I got a couple of X6100 batteries from AliExpress.? Have not used, but got just in case.? There are 2 batteries in the rig.? To replace them will require you to open the rig by removing the screws at the ends.
