- a longer explanation on how to fix the red light of death on a boosted board extended ranger battery version 2.0 without the need of installing an amnesia chip. this means you can do it yourself and start riding ASAP.
chip to short is : ISSI is25lp128
pins to short: 1 and 2
short while pressing the power button.
leave it on for 10 seconds.
turn off then back on to verify RLOD is gone.
I have NEVER left a comment on any video until now. You are the MAN!!!!! My extra xr battery was sitting for 2 years and this worked. Honestly I was hesitant to try this until you gave the examples of causation as I was the guy that went uphill on a super hot day and threw it in my car with one dot and got the RLOD next time I charged it. You have no idea how much this means to me especially with boosted off the map. I thought about junking this thin so many times. I watched hours of videos and trying your procedure was my final hail mary. Thank you so much for posting this I will be forever grateful you took the time to do this service to the forgotten boosted riders.
Had the exact same experience
I wasn’t hesitant but I have to second this comment, hero of the day for me!
WOW, it worked even after a year of me just leaving the battery in RLOD. I used a plastic trim tool to remove the coating to expose the metal contacts. Then on the 2nd try, I used a small metal flathead #2.5 and the RLOD has been cleared! Overall it took an hour to take the battery apart. I'll leave it on the charger for a couple weeks. Thanks so much, you saved me extra money and a lot of time.
Hi, do u remember if when you plugged your charger did it start charging? Or did it show rlod.
@@freddybautista6412 Yeah, it started charging immediately with the yellow light since it was not attached to the board.
How did it go after plugging it in the charger for a while
@@KenTVtw Keep it plugged in for a month first so the cells all balance out. Otherwise, it still works with no issue, and I have not let the battery go beyond 25%, since RLOD happened when I took the board out after 3 months of sitting and decided to be stupid by flooring it up the hill at nearly 0% charge.
I had bought the Amnesia Chip almost a year ago but I never had the chance to do it. Today I was ready to do it, and I stumbled with your video. You saved me so much time. Ty!
I wanted to report back to say this worked! Thank you! I was super skeptical at first but I did the procedure and the RLOD is gone. The battery is now charging and I will leave it on for a couple weeks. I used a toothpick to remove the film. The two terminals are super small and hard to see. At first I thought my circuit board did not have the terminals...lol. I used a tiny flathead to keep scraping after the initial toothpick method to really get down to the terminals. Took a few tries but it did work.
same here.. when i opened it.. everything was way smaller than what you see in the video.
Wow. I really appreciate for this video. I just fixed my brothers mini board by your method. It took me an hour. And it was the best hour i spent with huge joy at the end. Thank you thank you x millions!!!! 🙏 🎉❤😊
I got to ride my ride for the first time in 18months thanks to this video. Absolutely worked! I tried the Amnesia mod on a different battery at it was a fail. This method is way simpler. It was RLOD for a year and a half. Not anymore ! hah.
Didn’t charge my board for 6 months and tried this after the RLOD. Worked great. Especially liked the special effects added in the end.
Does your battery show full battery or only shows it is half full
@@KenTVtw using the battery indicator on the board it shows full bars now, but it may have been different last time this happened, nevertheless, I left it charging for two weeks after that so the the bms could balance the cells.
@@marktowers4165
@@marktowers4165 hmmmm
i tried this on both my XR, it fixed the RLOD issue, but now it would only show 2.5 charged instead on 5 bars full when its fully charged.... is there a way to fix this?
@@KenTVtw Sorry, as this didn’t happen to me I cant help. I’d recommend charging and not using it continuously for 2 weeks like I did, at least that’s what I read a while back in some forums. Honestly if it’s giving you roughly the same estimated range on the “Ride” app I wouldn’t worry about it, otherwise sorry.
YOU ARE THE GREATEST. After searching the internet far and wide: THIS IS THE BEST AND EASIEST SOLUTION. Just be careful taking the battery out after you take the cover out. I don't think it's possible not to break the plastic sleeves that are glued in place with the white glue you see in the video. I don't think it was ever meant to be re-assembled. So it is permanently glued. You have to brute force it out to break the sleeves to release the battery
This is amazing, thank you so much. I recently bought a used board and i got the RLOD like 2 days in and I thought i was done until I saw this. Now I’m back to riding like it never happened
Daaaaamn thank you so much, it actually worked. Had my second Battery for over a year in RLOD. Just searched for fun to clear it and booom your Video is the one. How did you know this Information? You save many people a lot of money mate
Amazing video, fixed my board. For anyone still trying just know the cells are extremely hard to remove from the battery casing but it is possible with a lot of force! Had to balance my board for 2 weeks after but it seems good now!
Thanks dude! Imma try it tomorrow. My boosted mini x been sitting on rlod since 2 whole years. Let’s hope it works!
Im crossing my fingers for you my dood! Good luck!
Did it work
@@rellmoneyloveyall alot of people have had success with this method. As long as your cells aren't too damaged you should be able to just reset and charge.
Gotta be honest, was skeptical about doing this. Mainly because I’m not to familiar with doing stuff like this. Gave it a go last night, took my time to remove the battery cover/ battery itself. I just followed the instructions from @Nomadned and ITS WORKED. No not on the first try, I would say after the 6th/7th try. Mainly because I was scrapping away at the contacts very little each time. (Didn’t want to mess it up by scrapping to much).
FYI my XR Battery hadn’t been plugged in for over a year. Kinda gave up on it since I got the RLOD. Thanks you sir!!! 🙏🙌
Hell yes my dood. Time to shred the gnar. Don't forget to balance your cells. Spread the knowledge my guy. 🛹🛹🛹
Amazing find, just completed the repair. RLOD gone 🚨🚫 Thank you sir!
Amazing Video!! Thank you so much! I haven’t been able to use my booster mini X in over a year! Took 15 mins to fix. Again thanks a lot saved me lots of $$
FOR ANYONE WHO’S TRYING CLEAN THE METAL BARS GOOD ANDNITS GONNA WORK! Thank you so much!!
I love you man !!! I just did your mod and it worked!! Thank you sooo much !!
Thanks it worked. Found a board next to a bin with the charger on top. Now to find a remote..
Now that's one hell of a find bro. I'm glad everyone is finding success with this method!
Thank you so much. Your the second video I watched to correct the problem. Board charging now. Note you might have to scrape some of the green circuit board off to make two contact to short.
I am taking the battery apart soon.
I rode the board uphill, after that rode it for a few more km on flat but on cold weather and depleted the battery.
When i got home and plugged it in i got the ROLD.
Il keep you posted,
Thank you, brother. Thanks to you, I saved 2 RLOD batteries.
Thnaks man, it worked for me. Had to try multiple times but it started woorging. When openin the case be careful not to break tke clips holding the batterys.
Worked for me on a battery that had RLOD for at least 2 years. Remember to use something conductive to short the two contacts, like a razor blade like i did since screw drivers didnt do it.
Thank you, this was too bad and it fixed my board!
Dude if this works Imma be so happy, cya in 2 weeks
Damn this did solve my RLOD but
I couldn’t charge over 50% anymore, so I tried letting it charge for over a week and nothing changed. I recently tried to charge it by towing it with a car, it did charge my board up to 90%, but once I plug in the charger when it is 90%, it instantly turned back to 50%…. When I unplug the charger it is reset to 50% again…. So every time when I charge it it would show 50%…. Is there anyway to fix this?
Just so you know the "film" is called Solder Mask. It protects the circuitry from corrosion and from shorts.
Thanks my dood. The more you know !🌈
@@nomadned9349 no problem whatsoever!
It’s not solder mask. It’s a conformal coating that he scraped off.
@@robertmaks0 Solder mask, solder stop mask or solder resist is a thin lacquer-like layer of polymer that is usually applied to the copper traces of a printed circuit board for protection against oxidation and to prevent solder bridges from forming between closely spaced solder pads.
Straight from Google.
The first TINY layer is conformal coating, after that it's all solder mask. He dug straight down to the traces.
be aware that this fix will remove the waterproof glue of the battery. the glue can be applied but i tried and it still didnt work, lost battery to water damage.
Did it with mine, green lit up but then the RLOD came back on. Any ideas?
thanks man! i bought this xr battery from a guy for cheap he said he tried this and it worked for 2 weeks or so and now it only shows a light when charging. has anyone have a idea?
It works. Thanks a lot!!
I did this and now nothing lights up when I press the power button. Any idea what I can do to fix this?
Try leaving it plugged in for a couple of hours. Remember that this only resets the RLOD. It does not fix any bad cells in your pack. Use a multimeter to test every individual cell and replace the bad ones. There's plenty of youtube videos on how to test and replace cells.
If it doesn’t come on again after doing this that means you fried your spi flash and the battery is even more useless now it can’t be fixed after that doing this tactic will reset rlod but it’s dangerous for that very reason
Don’t know if you’re gonna see this, but please tell me you found a solution? I think I messed mine up
Can i do this fix while the battery is still connected to the board because i cannot get the metal connector off any tips?
@NomadNed I did it. I no longer have the rlod. When I plug it in to charge tho there is a red light like it is charging and after a minute it turns green and does not continue charging. I’m not sure if you know what I should do please let me know if you have a solution. 🙏
I’m having same problem
Can’t charge over 2.5
Any solution?
So I do the short on it right and then when I power it on it turns green for 5 seconds then back to the blinking light of death any idea?
Every figure it out have same problem
Same problem over here. It goes green for a few seconds and then back to blinking and RLOD
@@adriantorres132 @nickyabreu8123 i did figure out the problem one of the cells was too low on charge compared to the others to allow the reset to stay reset pretty much it would go green but then fail and go rlod again because of that one cell to low on charge so then i bought a charger to charge that one cell brought it back up to the others did the short again and it worked for good
@@nickyabreu8123 yes check my other reply
Any idea on what I can do with a Boosted Board V1 that has been giving me the blinking red LED for a year now? Should I part out and sell seperetly? Or sell as one unit as not working? Or is there some kit I can use to revive this magical adventure machine? Thanks brother!
Won’t work on standard range battery v1 or v2 only xr
For V1 ask a friend to tug around the block by a car few rounds, than use a charger.
@@hardmurakami I rode the board on a treadmill for over an hour, but since I still have it, I might as well try having someone drag me around on it. I don't know if it's legal but I'll either sell it or try this.
@nomadned think you could help getting a quickfix for my other battery ?
Its got a yellow "breathing" light when i plug the charger in and will not turn on if you press the button.
Been trying to figure this one out for a while.
is it attached to the board when you are charging it? From my understanding from researching breathing yellow light means it's not attached to the board while charging
Would you be able to charge it out of the board. For example after the rlod is cleared. At that point before connecting it back to the board and sefuring it down. Can we charge it off the board for 2 weeks? Or is plugging everything back together best way
Yes you can do it off the board.
For those who tried it. How long has it been since you tried this method. Did the RLOD came back?
This method works as many times as you need. If it keeps doing it then it means you have a bad cell and need to replace it. You can use a multimeter to find out what cell is bad. They cost about 6 USD per cell on ebay.
The cells are fine. XR has a bad design. To charge 🔋 every few months is necessary if you want to have RLOD free unit.
Does this work for boosted stealth???
It worked! Thanks alot! Is it normal that i have a solid red light while charging.
yes
Thanks for the free money! 💕
I really appreciate you seeing it the way I do. Knowledge is power and I love sharing what I know if it can save you a dollar.
It stays green for 3 secs then goes back to RLOD
i have one of mine doing the same thing bad cells most likely
@@JoshuaWacaster if yours will not reset. it means you have to do a different method which is also very easy to do. short the two pins like in the video and then plug in the charger. Then let go of the two pins and check the battery with a volt meter. The amazing thing is if you did it right the battery is charging even if the red light is blinking!!! give it a try and have your multimeter checking the battery voltage and you will see the battery charging!
Does this work on the v3 plus booster board?!?! Thanks so much currently screwed!! Haha
Yes as long as you have that specific ISSI chip on there, you can short it out and clear the RLOD
I have a V-1 board and want to convert to a V-2
Can anyone help me out?
I got the red lite of death n my doàrds just chilling
You sound super sus lol
Use a not hot blade but a warm one to break tha seal with tha glue used by tha manufacture."Carefully" pry 1st then use tha heated blade to free Ure batt!!! and anything else U need to free. I'm out'z. Shreadin without U.
There is a high chance the cells will blow up with a short.
FALSE. We are shorting a chip on the board controlling the cells. It has nothing to do with shorting the actual cells. 🙄 stop spreading wrong info
You are an absolute gem. this WHITCHCRAFT worked. Did I mention I love you?
there are 4 small contacts on tat side of the chip... which ones don you sort out ???
Thanks worked for mine! I wish there was a way to update my XR 2.1.7 firmware 🥹
There are some people who knows but it cost a lot and they dont teach, i think is simples but at same time HARD to know, the easiest way i think is possible, is by coping a Stealth ESC firmware and write/ copy to V2 ESC for example, cuz all the boosted has the same partes, only diferent designs and Software Locks
