Faulty Raspberry?

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

I recieved a Raspberry Pi as a gift in April. About two months later, it stopped working. The screen displays the color splash, then scrolsl some code, then the "Hold Shift" screen and then starts over. The green LED will blink once, and then only the red LED will remain on. I have researched this problem many times and after testing numerous cables and power supplies and re-writing NOOBS to the SD card, I have given up. I have also made sure that there aren't any peripherals drawing too much power from it. If anyone has any ideas on what might be the problem or what I should do, that would be greatly appreciated.

 

p.s. I do not have a multimeter, so I can't measure the voltage or anything. It probably wouldn't make much of a difference, anyways, unfortunately.

    The SD card may have failed.  If you have a spare SD card, that would be worth trying.

    Hi Elliott,

     

    You have a good chance of getting it replaced under warranty if you can determine

    who it was purchased from.  As a gift, that can sometimes be awkward, but worth a try.

    If it was purchased from newark/element14, then I would suggest posting a warranty request

    in the "feedback and support" area, at http://www.element14.com/community/community/support

    using the "Post Feedback or Comment" button.

    Thanks, guys! I do know it was from Element14, as it came in an Element14 box.
