[GCARC] Technician Question

[Vinnie Sallustio]

The repair costs would be more than the cost of a new one. 

First think I would do is a factory default master reset.

After that, check to see if it has an internal battery. It might be bad. I have seen dead batteries to weird things. 

After that, it gets cost prohibitive.
