My Ez-Board Just Went Pop :(

Man,

I just though I'd have a play with my ez-b having not played with it for a while, but when I connected the battery, nothing happened. Removed the power and re attached it a few times when it decided to just go pop:(

Anyone any idea what happened? And whether its repairable? Really can't afford another one at the moment:(

They a common regulator circuit is made is a input cap mostly a large one 220 mfd or higher depending on the current of output and how much ripple,then on the output you have about 2.2 mfd to protect the regulator and .1 mfd to protect the IC

If the blue led is pulsing, than the Bluetooth is indeed getting power.

You will need to replace the Bluetooth module:)
