Just received a GoPiGo2 and was able to put it together. Connected everything and got video. 11YO son was trying to figure out how to program it to move and after looking at a few different things the GoPiGo2 will no longer turn on. Red power light comes on but nothing else like it did before. Where should I start? Thanks! Looking at the micro sd card in Windows it says You need to format the disk before you can use it. Is this normal? Thank you! Alicia.
Hi @alicial,
I’ve got a couple of questions for you:
-
What OS are you using? Is it Raspbian For Robots, basic Raspbian or is it DexterOS? If so which version are talking about?
-
What are you powering this GoPiGo2 with?
-
What tool do you use for programming the robot?
-
Could you give us a step-by-step description of the things you did before it stopped working?
Thank you!
Greetings!
I will explain to the best of my abilities and hopefully it is enough. Unfortunately, I don’t know much about hardware, but I can follow directions.
