It's supposed to turn on when charging, correct?

I've done that but it still wont turn on :(.

Can anyone help with this?

Hello. I ordered a new PMS lite from 4layertech and got it wired up. Everything works fine now - no more power button issues. Cells are charging. However, the status led refuses to turn on. I've soldered on the address pin which is furthest from the flat side of the led, connected the anode and...

I went ham on the pms with some isopropyl alcohol. Power button still doesn't work. I never tried updating the firmware. I do remember I either carelessly probed something or set the pms on a metal surface and heard a faint squeal while powered on. My memory does not serve me well. After that...

here they are. I can take more up close photos with my solder microscope if necessary.

Yeah. I'll remove them and take better photos.

I superglued a thicker gauge wire onto the board during my first wiring attempt. I was struggling to make a good solder joint. I have since refined my soldering skills a bit, lol. The thin 34 AWG is what's going to the PMS.

Here are some photos of the wiring thus far. Wiring lengths aren't final - just trying to troubleshoot. I included a photo of the screen I see when it boots up. I've been able to play super mario galaxy. Just can't turn it off.

I haven't wired the SCW SDW to the wii yet. I can upload some photos in the morning

Welp. Just popped a battery charged to 4.2V. The power button still won't turn it off.

Yes. 3.2V. I forgot to charge them

So I redid the wiring much more carefully today. The power button is still not working. I'm measuring about 3.3V on BTN when not pressed and it drops to 0v when pressed. IS there anything I can troubleshoot? To be clear, my Wii is powering on and working fine, except for the power button. It...

That's what I feared. I'll redo the wiring neatly and update later this week.

Here are some photos. I know my wiring looks like trash. Now I'm noticing its booting up intermittently. For some reason, the power switch nor the button on the pms-pd are doing anything so I'm having to remove and reinsert the battery to restart the system. Maybe I should just redo the wiring...

I accidentally broke the thermistor pcb so no. It does display absolute zero. Ill take some photos and reply to this thread

Hey guys. Bit of a noob. Trying to finish my first portable. An Ashida. I have the PMS-pd and the pms lite. It detects the pms lite, however, it cannot detect the voltage of the batteries nor do they charge. My battery percentage just stays at 0. Can anyone help?

Hi. Building my first portable. Have everything wired up correctly (i think)
