A couple of days ago, my refurb mp3 player I intend on taking on the trail would not turn on under it's own power anymore. It would turn on when I plugged it into a computer and I could look at the files with a laptop, but after I would disconnect it from the usb port, it would turn off again.
One of billions of videos on youtube revealed a way to open this model of player so I could take a look at it, to see if it was an apparent break, it was. This picture shows the 3 wires coming from the battery where they are supposed to connect to the circuit board.
I was able to clean up the end of all the wires, and properly solder them at each point on the circuit board. When I snapped it back together, everything worked and I've used it at the "Y" for the last 2 days.
