Re: Problem with 2004 Robot

If it was working with tether and now it is not, remove the backup battery and try again. If the backup has not been charged in a while, it might be shorted. If the robot functions with the battery removed, suspect a bad battery. NiCads sometimes go reverse voltage when left for some time uncharged/unused. Try a charge cycle and see if it takes a charge before recycling.
