Rasberry pi not switching on with batteries #27

Closed suhasshastry closed 2 years ago

suhasshastry commented 2 years ago

I accidentally connected the raspberry pi to the power supply when it was mounted onto the car. Now the raspberry pi won't start with the batteries from the car. Did I damage the 4wd car circuit? Power seems to be not flowing into the pi.

PS: Rasberry pi is fine with a direct power connection.

You are using both power switches on the robot board, right?

suhasshastry commented 2 years ago

Yeah. both the switches. The green light of pi is never turned on. But the red light is on. (which I read online as power indicator)

Please fully charge your batteries to try again.

suhasshastry commented 2 years ago

One of the batteries is not withstanding the charge. I will try with new batteries.

One of the batteries was fried. Working fine with new batteries. Thanks @DenzelChen
