My nano sat in the car during sub zero temps (-10 to -20°F) for a few weeks and now isn't even recognized when I plug it in. Dead as a doornail.
Question is, will I need to replace both the battery and display or is the battery alone going to be enough? Anything else in there that might have been damaged by low temps?
Cette question est-elle utile ?

If you tried this while it was still basically frozen, wait a day or so with it at room temperature. Try again. Don't plug it in until it warms up naturally. If the battery starts getting warm too quickly, it could cause problems with the battery itself or even (potentially) crack the logic board. Since they are basically welded together, I guess that doesn't matter as much, but I don't see any reason why the display should need replacing unless it's cracked.

+ agreed Some people store batteries in the freezer - it really doesn't help but it doesn't hurt them unless they get totally frosted: http://ask.yahoo.com/20011219.html

Thanks Jerry, but this puppy was back to room temp for days and I attempted to charge it both from a Mac and from a wall charger... nothing happens, it just remains black. Was in perfect shape before this happened. So you guys think it isn't the battery?

That would be my biggest contender. Start of with the battery and trouble shoot from there if needed. Good Luck.

Just bear in mind that the battery is soldered to the logic board. It's cheaper, but if you don't do soldering, it might be better just to replace both anyway. The boards sold here come with a battery pre-soldered to them as part of the price. (Click on the "Parts" link below the device image on the right.)
