Meta Quest 3 is not turning on anymore

Hey, our Quest 3 does not turn on any more for several days. It does not do anything, no lights, not even going into boot menu when holding power and volume down. Can you help us here?

Did you try to hold the power button for very long (30 seconds)?

Also, when plugging the power adapter, is the charge light turning on (whatever the color)?

Yes, but device did nothing.

There is no charging light, nothing lights up.

Hey there, @likeaguest_dev! We want to do our best to get you back into VR, so let's work together to get to the bottom of this! To begin, we have some troubleshooting steps that we'd like you to try:

  • Ensure the headset is charged by allowing it to charge for at least 2 hours.
  • We recommend charging the device from an outlet, if possible.
    • If charging from a computer, they typically provide less power than outlets and may require more time to charge. Additionally, computers may also stop charging peripherals if the peripheral is completely powered off (causing the computer to not recognize the presence of the device) or if the computer itself goes into a sleep state.
  • Try charging from a different source (another PC or a different wall outlet).
  • Try a different cable or charger; if possible, test the cable and charger (adapter) separately to determine the faulty component.
  • Charge the headset without the facial interface. Some facial interfaces may block the proximity sensor, which can impact the power of the headset.
  • If you are using an Elite Strap with a battery or a third-party accessory, please remove it when charging.

Unfortunately nothing worked out for me. The device is still completely unusable. 

Still need help?
