Resolved by Nomad 6R!
My battery charger is not charging and the green light is always on? I have been able to charge a few times now without issue and this happened just yesterday. Cannot charge my robot now....
Is there anything I can check/do to get this working again?
Decided to open it up to see if anything was burnt. Everything looks normal?
Can you check what voltage your Lipo is at now?... A long shot, but if the voltage of your lipo drops below 3V per cell (6V where we're concerned) then it will no longer charge again...
Also have you tried unplugging the charger for an hour or so and then trying again?
@Richard, notice no battery is connected to the charger yet the green light is on...
The charger may still be charging the battery, have to checked the voltage before trying to charge it then after it being on charge for a bit?
Doh... @Rich See, now I know why they pay you the big bucks
... Rich is right, maybe your charger is still able to charge... Check your batt voltage....
maybe am wrong but this looks not wright to me.
It seems Nomad18.08 has spotted a couple of FETs that look smoked.
this is also strange,the screw looks old.
@nomad18.08 If I may: R16 appears to have at some point gotten really warm.
I doubt it has anything to do with what your seeing, but something to check.
