How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect the charger and remove the battery before any PCB work.

  • Step 1 – Power cycle: Remove the battery for 5 minutes, then reinstall and try again.
  • Step 2 – Retry update (if supported): Follow Clatronic’s official instructions to re‑initiate the firmware update via the app or service tool, ensuring the battery is fully charged and the device remains powered.
  • Step 3 – Service mode (technician): Some models require a service jig or USB interface to reload firmware. This is typically a workshop procedure.
  • Step 4 – Replace PCB: If firmware cannot be restored, the main control PCB must be replaced.
