Check your Hoverboard completely

Hoverboards are one of the hottest gifts this season, but if you’re having trouble with yours, it may be time to reset it.

This is a very simple process that will only take a few minutes and can make all the difference in the performance of your hoverboard. Follow these tips to get started and make sure the problem does not persist:

• Connect your hoverboard to its charger so that it is plugged in properly. You may have to unscrew the charging port cover before plugging it into an outlet.
• Wait until there is no movement on the screen (sometimes referred to as lights out). This could take anywhere from 10-30 minutes depending on how full your battery was when you started charging it.

If your board won’t turn on

If your board won’t turn on, there is a series of steps you can take to try and get it going again. First, make sure that the battery is charged and plugged in. If this doesn’t work, try the following:

• Take out the battery and wait five minutes before putting it back in
• Unplug the charger from the board and plug it back in
• Check that the charger is plugged into an outlet as well as your board
• Try restarting your device by pressing and holding down one of the buttons for 5 seconds

Charge it for 24 hours

Make sure your hoverboard is off and unplugged before you start charging it. You can plug your board in with the battery all the way down or all the way up, but make sure that you don’t overcharge it by letting it charge for more than 24 hours.

Be patient and don’t try to use your board while it’s charging because this will cause the battery to become overheated, which could lead to a fire. If this happens, turn off your hoverboard right away and let it cool down before you continue charging.

Take off the cover and unscrew the screws on the battery

First, remove the screws that hold on to the battery cover. If your battery is small enough, you may be able to pop it out with a screwdriver.

The first thing you’ll notice is that there are two cables connecting to each other and one of them will have a red label. This cable connects the battery and the charger. The other cable has no label and this is where electricity flows from the power outlet to charge up your hoverboard.

The next step in resetting your hoverboard battery is to unplug the charger from the wall outlet. Do this so that you don’t accidentally electrocute yourself while disconnecting or reconnecting things later on.

Press the reset button in with a needle or pen tip

The first step is to remove the battery from the board. Place it on a flat surface and use a needle or pen tip to press and hold the reset button for 3 seconds.

After pressing the reset button, you’ll want to plug in your charger and turn it on. Let it charge for about 5-6 hours before trying again to turn on your hoverboard.

Leave it unplugged overnight and use it again the next day

• Unplug your hoverboard from the power outlet it is connected to. If you have a cordless hoverboard, make sure your battery is fully charged. After that, take it off of the charger for a full night without the use
• Plug in your hoverboard or put on your battery and wait for the power lights to turn green before using it again
• Charge your battery or plug in the cordless board. Do this to ensure that the board has enough power to run smoothly for a long period of time without turning off on its own
