I have a model Ozeri #BP01K. When I put new batteries in it and try to start it nothing happens. Is there a reset button or is it fried?

First off, be sure that the batteries are in properly!! I had to replace the batteries in mine and it's very easy to put them in the wrong way so be sure to check polarity. And, when I replaced the batteries, I had the same issue - it wouldn't fire back up so I removed the batteries, reinserted them and it started fine. There's no reset button that I'm aware of....

First use NEW batteries. I thought my so-called NEW batteries were fresh and up to charge. They were not! Get a battery tester. Once I had batteries that had a full charge It started without having to do it manually. I do not manually do it any different than the other six answers in any major aspect. I had to start it manually until I realized that I had new batteries that did not have a full charge. Now it works fine without having to resort to manual operation.

I bought mine in February, had the same problem and called. Customer service was great. I received a new one not long after I called. I would recommend hitting the reset button and if that doesn't work, call Customer service.

Don't reset it just turn it on manually by pushing the cover panel over the buttons. I am not sure which model you have but this works for me until the normal setting comes around and it changes it again automatically.

Have to agree with the other respondent... I did not have any problems with the units. As long as the batteries you are using are fresh, it should just start right up. Otherwise, it sounds like the unit is defective.

New batteries did not help? Mine have been working fine. You can take it to any recycle bin in your area or put it in your own recycling bins for pick up. If you haven't had it long and new batteries don't work, I would contact the company who makes them.

Thank you for your reply. I have used other than OEM batteries with other devices and in some cases the battery level indicator in those devices would not function properly. Glad to learn that this is not a problem with the Wasabi replacement for the EN-EL12. Best wishes for the New Year.

Hi, Make sure the battery door is full closed battery could be defective probably not the problem after installing the battery press the button for about 5 seconds to reset if unit was newly installed check the wiring to be sure it was hooked up correctly make sue if it is connected to other units their batteries are ok and lastly you could have a defective unit . Hope thiS has been of help JW

first try to reset the unit before going thru the trouble of waiting on a battery. that was the problem with our unit, not the battery. unplug both units. remove battery from parent unit. wait 10secs. hold the (-) volume button on the parent unit while you reinsert the battery. the unit will then beep. the unit has now been reset. plug both units back in. you may have to relink the parent unit. if this is the case the "link" light will be blinking on the parent unit. so if resetting the unit does not work then it may be the battery. if it is the battery, call Avent directly (800) 542-8368 ... they sent me a battery. first try to reset the unit before going thru the trouble of waiting on a battery. that was the problem with our unit, not the battery. unplug both units. remove battery from parent unit. wait 10secs. hold the (-) volume button on the parent unit while you reinsert the battery. the unit will then beep. the unit has now been reset. plug both units back in. you may have to relink the parent unit. if this is the case the "link" light will be blinking on the parent unit. so if resetting the unit does not work then it may be the battery. if it is the battery, call Avent directly (800)... » Read More first try to reset the unit before going thru the trouble of waiting on a battery. that was the problem with our unit, not the battery. unplug both units. remove battery from parent unit. wait 10secs. hold the (-) volume button on the parent unit while you reinsert the battery. the unit will then beep. the unit has now been reset. plug both units back in. you may have to relink the parent unit. if this is the case the "link" light will be blinking on the parent unit. so if resetting the unit does not work then it may be the battery. if it is the battery, call Avent directly (800) 542-8368 ... they sent me a battery. « Show Less

The same thing happened to me. I bought 2 of them and 1 don't turn on . I also replaced the batteries and it still doesn't work. I don't know how to replace it eather because the packaging has been taken out to the trash.

You could try cycling the power or shine a flashlight on the sensor to reset it.I took mine out as they were unreliable.

remove the batteries and put them back in again, it took a little bit of time to get it going but eventually it took. good luck

If it won't turn on as usual, I recommend taking the batteries out for a minute, reinstalling them, and going through the tare process again. (I believe this is just stepping on it to wake it up, then stepping off before it locks on your weight to allow it to balance to 0)

There's a small reset button in the back of the unit that you can press to restart the unit & if that doesn't work, it may have a blown fuse...

I'd suggest removing the batteries and then reinserting them and see if it resets. If not, then I think you might as well throw it away. I sent an Email to the manufacturer once about a problem I was having and they didn't respond.

I had the same problem and I called vtech and they instructed me to take out the batteries and hold the power button down for 10 seconds reinsert the batteries and attempt to power back on. It did not work the first time so she told me to remove the batteries and blow in the battery compartment to remove dust ( which was curious to me because it looked spotless) hold the power button down again for 10 seconds reinsert the batteries and attempt to power on again. It worked after the second try.

If I remember right, you had to open the battery door thingy and there was a piece of plastic that you needed to pull out. I could be wrong though. Otherwise maybe try pressing the reset button? Just an idea.
