Poly Not turning on!

Poly Not turning on!

2015-06-02 by burton_neal@...

Hi


I recently did a the battery mod on my Poly 800 mk1 and everything seemed fine. However, I've come back to it after a month away and my poly won't turn on! Theres absolutely nothing happening. I've changed the battery and tried different power supplies but still nothing.


You guys have any advice?


Thanks in advance!


All the best

Well, might that indicate that the new internal battery has become disloged over the last month?

Maybe go back in and swap that one out.

I had the same problem a couple of years ago.
Turned out that the battery mod itself caused the problem.
