How to Fix a Faulty RAZ DC25000 Vape Screen?
Modern disposable vapes with display screens may look all fancy and “advanced” until they start becoming your worst nightmare – those LED screens you see on these vapes are quite fragile, one mistake and the whole screen starts malfunctioning. For most RAZ vape users, it’s either the screen turns white or the displayed icons get distorted (placed out of proportion or completely abnormal).
By design, a user is not expected to disassemble a disposable vape, instead, it is expected that you purchase a new one if your current device gets faulty or you’ve exhausted the content.
However, and as expected, some users do take their disposable vapes apart to troubleshoot and fix most issues they face while using the device(s) – Sometimes, this DIY approach helps to fix the issue, other times, they just end up wrecking the vape the more.
Got a RAZ DC25000 with a malfunctioning screen? It could be that it fell off your hand while vaping and that’s the reason the screen’s display is distorted or abnormal, or maybe, the device you got is faulty (if the problem occurred right after you took it out of the box). Either way, here are some handy tips that may help.
How to Fix a Malfunctioning RAZ DC2500 Vape Screen
Well, you will definitely have to rip that vape of yours apart to be able to fix most screen issues you may be facing at the moment. Now, does that sound like what you’re willing to do? Okay, good, then let’s get to it.
However, if that seems like a “big deal” or a “not worth it” task to you, the simplest thing you can do is get a new unit of your RAZ disposable vape, or maybe, this time, you could go for an alternative – let’s say the Geek Bar Pulse X or Lost Mary Quasar OS25000.
1. RAZ DC25000 Screen Turns Completely Black and Blank
If your DC25000 RAZ vape turns black completely and won’t show anything on the screen no matter how long you press the button, there’s no need to keep pressing the button as it won’t power on. Sometimes, this issue occurs because you let the battery die completely, and if this is the case, it literally takes “Ages” for the device to charge back and power on.
Solution
Connect the vape to a power source (not your laptop or power bank) – the power source should be a socket. Now, allow the device to charge for as long as it takes for it to come back on – it could be up to 5 hours or even more. However, if after 12 hours (or 24 hours max), the vape wouldn’t display anything or show signs of powering on, then it’s gone.
Another alternative solution is to pry the vape open and check the wire connections to the screen; if any seems pulled from where it’s supposed to be connected, then you’ve got to put it back, and there goes the solution to your problem – screw back the nuts.
2. RAZ DC25000 Showing Incoherent Icons on Black Screen
Funny as it may sound, but you may be “out of words” to describe how your DC25000 disposable’s screen is showing some unexplainable icons on a totally blacked-out screen. Well, again, this may occur if the vape fell off while you were vaping, maybe into the sink, beach sand, or just the regular floor. Sadly, there’s no straightforward fix for this issue – just a 50-50 try.
Solution
One workable fix for this issue is to reset the vape, which is only possible when you screw it open – take it apart. At the bottom of the vape (after you have opened it), find the two tabs connected to the top of the battery and cut the wire solder off the metal tab – this will force the device to shut off and hard reset. Of course, if you did cut off the solder correctly, open the metal tab it was soldered to and fold the cable back in – try powering the vape afterward.
Note: This may wreck the device totally, but if done well, you might have just saved your vape.
Conclusion
Fixing RAZ vape’s screen problems is one hell of a technical task to put yourself through. Most times, the result isn’t commensurate with the effort as these are “disposable vapes” not meant to be manually opened by the users. However, sometimes, these DIYs help to fix the screen problems.
But! If you got the vape new, it’s best advised to make a return and request a new one, or you could get some $$ off for another vape – from another brand (if you bought from a vape store).
FAQs
Why Did My RAZ Vape Screen Stop Working?
There could be many reasons, but the most common is a dead battery – maybe you’ve got a dead battery. RAZ disposable vapes have quite poorly-made batteries that go dead in the slightest instance, or even randomly. So, get the vape plugged into power and let it charge until it comes; in some cases, it may take up to 24 hours. But if this doesn’t work, then the vape is gone – the best option is to get a new one.
How To Reset A Disposable Vape?
Since disposable vapes are not openable and only a very few of them come with a “reset” button or pinhole, the best way to reset yours is to let the battery die completely, then charge it back up and power it. If this doesn’t work and the vape doesn’t have a reset option, your only alternative would be to pry it open and deal with some cables.
How To Fix A RAZ Vape That Won't Hit?
First of all, check if you still have e-liquid left, and if you can confirm that you still have some left, then check for clogs in the airflow areas such as the mouthpiece and airflow slider regions. Another thing, make sure the device’s battery is not dead – a dead battery can cause your vape not to hit.
