New Charge 6 display is dark and no vibration after setup

[Sharon_M]

After the process of setting up the new fitbit and moving my account to Google, fitbit was ready to connect Charge 6 but fitbit no longer saw Charge 6. And Charge 6 had no display and no vibration. I have tried the charging cord button and the 30 sec hold for reset. Neither worked. What else should I try?

I connected Charge 6 to laptop via charger cable and Charge 6 woke up and I was able to finish the setup. The setup app was not aware the Charge 6 was paired so I had to verify through phone Bluetooth function app.

Your suggestion did not work. The Fitbit app could not find the Charge 6.

The Charge 6 was unresponsive.
