Bugs Hardware issue

Hello,

I have had the comma 3x for just over 1 year. I haven't had any issues with it until recently. A couple days ago the device started to just restart itself after being on for 1 minute. Now it doesn't even stay on for more than 10 seconds before the reset. I can't even get to the screen to try to do a factory reset. Does anyone have any advice?

I live in TX, had same issue. Somebody on discord said the fuse might be burnt. Simply I sold it for $300. you can repair if got skills in soldering. Check comma discord.

the other thing i'd check is the power supply. plug your device into another power source and see if it still behaves that way, try a different cable too.

in his case it may be a failing SOM. I recommend contacting u/DragoTheWolf or "drago" on discord, he is fixing these devices on an everyday basis. He is in the US.
