Dead redpitaya...?

Hi

I have got a red pitaya from a friend, but it seems to be dead... The green LED has a full constant light and the yellow has a very dimmed constant light. Nothing changes when I install the image into the SD card, as mentioned in this link:
redpitaya.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickStart/SDcard/SDcard.html

Can the bootloader be missed on the red pitaya or is the red pitaya dead? If the bootloader is missing - where can I then get this and information about reinstall it into the red pitaya without to much work (I don't like to compile anything unknown from github or something like that please)...?


Kind regards
Ferrari

Hi,

what is the status of the other LEDs (blue and red)

Yellow LED indicates access to SD card. It is likely that there is a problem with the SD card. Take a different SD card and write the whole image on the new card as you did before on the old SD card.
