Defective Trinket -- RMA?

Post by Crady »

Order #496176

Hi, I just now tried to program my new Trinket for the first time and pressing the reset button does nothing.
No matter what I do I just get a steady green light.
My older Trinket, Gemma, Micro and UNO boards all work flawlessly.
I'm guessing this one is defective.

Can I get an RMA? Thanks!

Since you have an Uno, try re-flashing the Trinket's bootloader. That's a lot faster than making you wait for another shipping delay.

Doesn't work. I get the following screen saying it was a success but the Trinket LED never flashes, never changes, just stays a solid green.

Tried loading sketches afterward and the IDE says it can't find the Trinket even though it shows up correctly in the Device Manager.
