Pleo Beeps ONE TIME and then Switches off!!
« on: August 20, 2014, 04:27:34 AM »

hi.
When I switch on my PleoRB, it Beeps ONCE and then switches off !!

The green light comes on for a few seconds, Pleo makes ONE "Roar sound" and then it "BEEPS" (one time), and then the green power light turns off and Pleo switches off.

I have replaced the Foot Battery.. and it is correct, (the battery hooked under the Two Small Pins).
I have tried to RESET Pleo (and got the red reset confirmation light)
and I have also Reset the NOON button (and heard the reset confirmation Beep).
  - I was able to do the resets while Pleo was doing the Roar (before he switches back off again).

PS: My Battery is fully Charged.

Nothing seems to work.
it just Beeps and switches off.

What can I do ?
Please help me  :)

Thank you
Apple

Hi Apple, try giving the terminals a good clean, preferably with a teeny bit of alcohol on a swab. That's the silver parts on the bottom of the battery, and the springs inside the Pleo, and for good measure while you are there may as well clean the silver parts on the charger too :)

sounds like an issue with the battery.  How long does it take for your battery to fully charge - turn green on the charger? Try IMR's suggestion and let us know if it makes any difference.  You may need to charge the battery again before trying to use it.  It sounds very much like the pleo thinks the battery is flat.

Double-check the battery in the foot.
The battery needs a minimum of 2V.
I think that is just empty.

If the foot battery is faulty then the pleo will turn on but will only open it's eyes and not really move any other part and it will beep continuously over and over until you turn it off.  So I don't think the foot battery is the issue here.  I think the problem is with your main battery that goes into pleos belly.  How long does it take to charge this battery from putting it on the charger until it turns green?  It should take about 3 to 4 hours for a normal fully functioning battery.  How old is your pleo rb? 
Pleo rb batteries are much better than the old Ugobe ones but they can still die so it may just be that your battery no longer holds a charge and needs to be replaced.
