PS3 RB2 Drums won't power up

[marioevz]

Hi! recently i bought the RB2 Special Edition and i've been playing for no more than a week. Yesterday when i wanted to play, the drums won't power up, like there were no batteries, I changed the batteries for new ones several times but i had no results, the lights, the ps button, nothing works, it's completely dead and the kit still looks like new. Any help is really appreciated, thanks!

Your best bet would be to do a warranty exchange with EA. The instructions can be found on the back of the manual or at EA support site. You'll need your receipt.

May sound like a stupid question, but you did set the switch to "on" before hitting the PS button right?

Yea, i switched it on and off a couple of times, changed the batteries for new ones and nothing worked

Sometimes hardware malfunctions, that's the best explanation I can come up with.
Fortunately you're still in the warranty period. A little painful, wait wise, but no money out of pocket.

Good thought elfreako, sometimes I assume things and should be a little more specific. What did I say in an earlier thread, try the simple things first, lol.
