How to fix Motorola Cell Phone that will not turn on?
- E
  erik19Aug 21, 2025
  If your Motorola Cell Phone won't turn on or stay on, the battery might be the issue. First, measure the battery voltage across a 50 ohm load. If it's less than 3.25 Vdc, recharge it. If it won't recharge, replace the battery. Also, check the battery terminals for misalignment or damage, and realign or replace the battery if needed. If the battery isn't the problem, the keypad may be defective and needs replacement. You can test this by temporarily connecting a +3.6 Vdc supply to the battery terminals and pressing the power button.

  If your Motorola Cell Phone doesn't turn on or stay on, there are a few potential causes. First, the battery might be discharged or defective. Measure the battery voltage across a 50 ohm load. If it's less than 3.25 Vdc, recharge it. If it won't recharge, replace the battery. If the battery isn't the problem, check the battery terminals for misalignment or damage. Realign them, and if needed, replace the battery or get the battery connector replaced at a Level 3 Service Center. If the terminals are fine, the keypad might be defective. In this case, replace the keypad. You can temporarily connect a +3.6 Vdc supply to the battery terminals, press and hold the power button. If the unit turns on and stays on, disconnect the power source and reassemble it with the new keypad.

  If your Motorola Cell Phone doesn't recognize the SIM card, start by checking the SIM card contacts for dirt and clean them if necessary. If the contacts are clean, try inserting a known good SIM card to see if the phone accepts it. If it does, replace your original SIM card as it is likely defective.
