I have a Blaze and it just stopped working.  I just have a black screen.  I tried holding the right button and the bottom left to start but nothing.  I have other Fitbit's but wonder if there is a fix for this.  It is probably a couple years old.  Please advise. 

 

Thank you,

Terri Powell

It's great to have you here @runterri! Thanks for the troubleshoot that you've tried. I would like you to confirm that you restarted it by following this procedure. Also, double check that you're properly charging it. 

Let me know how it goes.

I tried all of the tips.  When I plug it in  to charge it gets very hot.  Even the charger gets hot.  Something is wrong with it.  Never had a problem before.
