Evening everyone.

My poor little Revo Plus will no longer switch on Sad

Even the power/charge LEDs do nothing with mains plugged in.

It's not had any knocks, bumps or brusies so I'm at a loss.

There is a very worrying rattling coming from the battery compartment though.

I've been looking online but can't find any links to still working Revo pages with any help and can only get access to the motherboard/keyboard side and not under and into the battery area.

Anyone have any expert advice here?

This may help. Scroll to the bottom and download the pdf file.

Cheers Keith,

One hour and a few very small screwdrivers later, and although the back of my case won't stay quite as closed as it used to, it works.

Looks like the connecting ribbon from the batteries to the motherboard was partly out, may this be a warning to close your Revo carefully Embarassed

Cheers again!
