Jetson nano B01 does not start

Hi.
My Jetson Nano, which I have been using for about 6 months, has stopped running.
The operation when the power is turned on is as follows.

1.The green LED lights up and turns off after one second.
2.I have it connected to the display, but there is no signal.

Before this happened, I updated Jetpack to 4.6.
However, I don’t know if this is a direct cause or a physical failure.
I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what is going on and how to investigate the cause.

Hi,
In this case, IMO, the best way you do is using debug console.
And post the logs here again.

G’luck

Dear MtHiker
Thanks for letting me know.
I don’t have a cable at hand right now, so I can’t get a log of the serial debugging console, but I will post the log when I get it.

Hello MtHiker
I was able to get the logs from the console.
The log is pasted below.

I think the topic is similar to the following error, so I will try writing the image to the SD card again and see what happens.

Thanks,

Unfortunately, I rebooted with a new SD image written to it, and the same thing happened.

Did you try the hint, end of the post

If something is wrong in such early boot log, keep replacing the image on the sdcard won’ t help.

The sdcard only loads the kernel and rootfs. What need to gets re-flashed is the bootloader part.
So only sdkmanager can fix this kind of issue. Hope this can explain why you must use sdkm.

I was able to solve the problem by following these steps. Thank you for your help.

1.Short-circuit the FC REC to GND to boot in recovery mode.

2.Turn on the power, make sure it doesn’t go off, and make a USB connection to the Ubuntu 18.04 terminal.

3.Run the lsusb command in Terminal and confirm that the following log is displayed.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0955:7019 NVidia Corp.

4.Writing from SDK manager to USB-connected JetsonNano on Ubuntu 18.04LTS environment.

As a result, we were able to confirm booting even after the recovery mode was released.

Regards,

Dear Wayne
I have solved this problem, but I have a question.
What is the probable cause of this boot loader failure?
I want to know so that we can avoid as many failures as possible.

Hi,

I am not sure what was your previous jetpack release version.

In some older release like jp4.5, we notice some issues that it would cause bootloader failure in some cases. And this should be fixed after jp4.6 release.

Thus, please upgrade the release version if possible.

The previous version of Jetpack was 4.2.3.
I was relieved to hear that Jetpack 4.6 would not cause the said incident.
Thank you very much for your support.
