So here are a few photos of the battery cell and the capacitor that I changed

The capacitor was a 1206 47pF in the c13 spot on the board.

The battery cell that was replaced i found one ali express, it's a 955465/955565 battery.

Well Well Well

We have good news, capacitor changed and new battery cell replace and we are all up and working.
Popped it on charge and after about half hour it pinged green. Very happy with the outcome.

Sitting at a steady 12.57v, just like my other battery when fully charged

So, update, the board has been repaired but still got issues. One of the battery cells are dead, I've ordered a replacement from aliexpress, when it arrives and is fitted I will let you know if it works again.

Yeh nothing printed on these and you are correct, c13 is the one that has gone. I fix drones in the background also so don't mind working on miniature pcb boards. I've ordered a selection of capacitors in the 1206 range, this size, I will test them and what ever tests like the one next to it will get popped on with the hot air solder gun. Thanks for your help tho guys.

I've cleaned the board and all seems fine on the multimeter apart from the blown capacitor, I'm going to try and fix because it would be a shame to waste a good battery just because of something that cost less than 10p to replace.

Hi,

I recently got myself a second hand ridgemoney baitboat for £200, beautiful condition but the battery just constantly flashing red when charging. One holds charge and the other doesn't.

No I'm the kinda guy that refuses to throw anything away so I did what I do best and I cracked the batterys open. Well the one not holding charge anyway.

Sure enough, upon inspection I noticed corrosion on the motherboard and a popped capacitor.

My question for you guys is, has anyone got the data sheet for the board ( tells me what capacitor is where) or has anyone else attempted this and found one that works.

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
