Versa 3 won't charge

ANSWERED
Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

For over a few months my versa 3 doesn't take charge anymore. It all started with the notification of the charger being too slow, after buying a new charger, the versa 3 still gave the same notification. For a month it took 3 days to charge the battery per cycle, but suddenly it stopped charging completely. The problem I now have is that the company where I bought it can't repair my versa 3 and my versa 3 is just two months passed the factory warranty, while my versa 3 stopped working for over 4 months ago.

 

How can this problem be solved?

Hi there, @Jermaine.rhl. Welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for trying to troubleshoot the issue with your Versa 3 before reaching out. 

As a first approach, I suggest restarting your Versa 3. For instruction, see How do I restart my Fitbit device?

If the restart doesn't work and you haven't felt a vibration on your watch during this process, confirm that you've tried the following steps:

  • Clean the charging contacts on the back of your Versa 3 using the instructions in How do I clean my Fitbit device?
  • If the error "insufficient power source" appears on your device's screen, remove other devices plugged in to your power source, or plug your device in to another source.
  • Try a different USB port or a UL-certified wall charger.
  • Check the alignment and try reconnecting your device to the charging cable. For more information, see How do I charge my Fitbit device?
  • Restart your Fitbit once again. For more information, see How do I restart my Fitbit device?

Dear MarreFitbit,

 

I have done all those steps already and my fitbit still gives no sign of life.

 

- no charging animation

- no haptic feedback when putting it on the charger

- no haptic feedback when trying to turn on

- nothing happening on the screen
