I got my Ez Robot developers Kit for making my Wall E robot. I got all the servos up in place and tried to power on the controller. I am using the Li-Po battery that is available on the the store. I connected it to the plug that goes into the controller but I couldn't get the blue lights for the controller to come on nor did the controller make any sound. I haven't used it before and this is straight out of the box. I was wondering how I can diagnose if it is a faulty part or I am doing something wrong.

If so, measure the voltage from one of the digital power pins on the board to a ground pin on the board. Do you get anything?
Measure the voltage of the battery. What does it read? Is the battery buldging on the side?
Is the + going to the red side of the battery and the - going to the black side of the battery?
Does anything happen when you first plug the battery in? Was there a pop or anything?
The battery is not puffed on any side.
Nothing happens when I plug the battery in.
I'll update you in the evening with the multimeter readings.
is it not the best after replacing the fuse to test the ezbv4 on its own whithout servo
conneted.i bin told there's always a reason why the fuse blew up.
Going forward, this is how I am going to be answering questions. It will take longer but will help others more who read the posts.
Let's hope his was a fuse - best way to tell is with a multi meter. Anyone getting into electronics better have a multi meter
