issues with insta 360 X3 not powering up

Why insta 360 x3 wont power on

If your Insta360 X3 is not powering up, it could be due to a variety of issues. Here are some troubleshooting steps to help you identify and resolve the problem:

  1. Check the Battery
  • Ensure Proper Insertion: Confirm the battery is correctly installed and secured in the camera.
  • Inspect the Battery Contacts: Clean any dirt or corrosion on the battery contacts inside the camera or on the battery itself.
  • Test the Battery: Try using a fully charged battery. If the current battery doesnโ€™t work, it may need replacement.
  1. Charge the Battery
  • Use Official Accessories: Charge the battery with the official Insta360 charger or cable.
  • Check Charging Indicators: Ensure the charging light (on the camera or charger) is on. If not, try a different charging cable or adapter.
  • Allow Adequate Time: Let the battery charge for at least 1-2 hours before attempting to power on.
  1. Perform a Soft Reset
  • Some Insta360 cameras have a reset option. Check the user manual for instructions to perform a soft reset or use the reset pinhole if available.
  1. Update Firmware
  • Outdated firmware can sometimes cause startup issues:
    • Remove the microSD card and insert it into your computer.
    • Download the latest firmware from the Insta360 website and copy it onto the card.
    • Insert the card back into the camera and attempt to power it on.
  1. Test Without Accessories
  • Remove any accessories such as the microSD card, external microphones, or mounts, and try powering on the camera.
  1. Inspect for Physical Damage
  • Check for any visible damage to the camera, such as cracks, dents, or water ingress.
  • If the camera was recently dropped or exposed to water, it might require professional repair.
  1. Contact Insta360 Support
  • If the issue persists, reach out to Insta360 Support. They can provide advanced troubleshooting or arrange for repair or replacement if the camera is under warranty.
