After Update a6300 won't turn on (red light)


Recommended Posts

So I decided so do my first update and It failed. I wanted to update from 1.1 to 2.1 and after the update was completed my camera doesn't turn on. 

The only thing I can see is that on the bottom lightning a red lamp.

I tried 3 batteries. I tried to power the camera by the micro usb cable (no green light). I leave the battery out for one day. I tried to connect the camera again with my macbook, won't connect so I can't remake the update.

any ideas?

the Sony support said I have to send the camera to them but my warranty is over since 4 months and I had to pay everything including shipping

The light means the card is being accessed.  Keep it in, put a new battery in, and just let it run overnight and see if things fix themselves.  If not, have you tried turning the camera on without the card inserted?  Again, if the light stays on, just let it run.  FW updates take time, and so does repairing/resetting the current FW.  Though you won't get a progress indicator on that.
