What part should I replace if iPod won't turn on at all?

My iPod won't turn on at all. It was working perfectly a few hours ago, turned it off, wouldn't turn on again after a few hours. When I try to, I just get a blank screen. I don't hear anything, so I don't think the hard drive is spinning. Nothing shows up when I plug it into the computer. I've already tried resetting it, many times - like 10+.

I'm thinking I need to replace the battery, but it seems like people usually get a low battery message in that situation. Any ideas?

First of all, I'm not experienced with iPod repairs. But from general knowledge I would say that if it was the battery, it should still show up in iTunes or power up when you connect it to external power.

Rousp is correct in his assumption, I would say its more of a HDD or logic board problem.

I would replace the battery, worked for me.

I have the same problem with my Ipod classic G6. But I take off the battery and checked it with a multimeter. The Battery gives 4,2 V. Is this correct? It should only give 3,7 V.

When I try to connect it to the computer (with the disconnected battery) nothing happens. No drive spin up, no recognition of the device, no screen, nothing. :-(

So I think it's the logic board. Or what do you think?

Is there any repair tutorial out there for the logic board? Perhaps it's only a smd fuse or something like that.. :-)

Oh... I'm sorry for my bad english, but I can't find a german site with this quality. I like your site!
