Dear Lego,
HELP! I have a rcx2.0 sitting in front of me which I have had for nearly 2
years now and have never had any problems with, which has suddenly stopped
working! It won’t turn on, and I can’t do anything with it :( :( :( :(!!!
I have not got enough money to simply buy a new one, else I would, so please
can you tell me what is wrong with it??? Please? Pretty please with a cherry
on top? I have proof of purchase etc within australia. If this is a terminal
condition, is it possible to get a replacement?
Oh, before anyone asks, I have done the bleeding obvious and changed the
batteries, chacked for correct polarity, etc etc. I did IT helpdesk for a day
and got so sick of people ringing to ask what was wrong with their computer
and then having to tell them to turn it on that I check that myself before
anything else. So yes, I have done the obvious. Being a RCX 2 means that I
can’t plug it in and find out if it is simply a dodgy connector or what-not.
Please help me! I love robotics but I cannot do it without an rcx! HELP!!!
Thanks VERY much in advance,
Matt

Have you tried leaving the batteries out long enough to erase the firmware (3-4
minutes I think). Maybe the RCS some how manage to get corrupted firmware. I
once had one that had a bad firmware load that looked like is was dead.

| (...) No I hadn't - I just did and... Nothing. It's frustrating because the rcx won't even power on :( Thanks very much for trying though! matt (21 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.lego.direct, FTX)
