In that case, you need to replace it. You may also use a spare battery if any.<\/p>\n

    The Battery is not inserted properly<\/h3>\n

    Sometimes the camera does not turn on when the battery is not properly inserted in the GoPro. This can be an issue in all GoPro models with removable battery. Remove the battery and reinsert<\/strong> it properly. Then try turning on the camera. You may also consider replacing it with a spare battery.<\/p>\n

    SD card is not inserted properly<\/h3>\n

    SD card is an important accessory of the camera. If the card isn’t inserted properly, it may cause a problem. Make sure your SD card is compatible<\/strong> with the GoPro camera. If you have another microSD card handy, try that.<\/p>\n

    SD cards can sometimes be faulty, preventing the camera to turn on. In such cases, you should prefer replacing\/buying a new SD card. Formatting<\/strong> the SD card to remove the unwanted bug can also solve the problem. For this follow below steps :<\/p>\n

      Bad Charging Port or Blocked Slot<\/h3>\n

      You may notice that even after checking the battery and the SD card, inserted properly and in good condition, the cam still may not turn on. It could be due to a blocked slot<\/strong>.
