key input (and button) stopped working

Post by MangeLe »

I have used my Fona for a long time connected to an Arduino. To save battery i turn the Fona on to send some data and then turn it off again for an hour. It has worked without any problems for a year but yesterday it suddenly stopped working.

When testing whats wrong i found out that it's no longer possible to turn the Fona off with the key pin or the pushbutton. Also when i connect power to the unit it immediately turns on. I have disconnected it from the Arduino but it still shows the same behaviour.

Other than that the Fona is working fine.

Is there something i can do?
