Adafruit Order 2988750 - Nonfunctioning Power boost Shield 500

Post by czalin »

Hi there! After working for a couple of weeks, my power boost shield no longer seems to charge the battery or send power through to other boards. Is it replaceable?

It's powering an Uno R3, PN532 NFC shield, a wave shield, and a NOOD (see photos).

Similar to this post (viewtopic.php?f=31&t=147979), plugging the USB in still turns on the charge LED, but the blue "on" indicator LED never turns on (switch is fully in the on position and functionally tested with a multimeter).

My first thought is that the battery connector might have disconnected from the board. can you do a visual and/or electrical check?
