Charging error 3 fix on my $50 Roomba 560

This is a start to finish replacement of the motherboard in my Roomba that I picked up off Facebook Marketplace for $50. Charging error 3 showed up since I got it. I was able to temporarily fix it by cleaning the corrosion off of the battery contacts on the board. After replacing he front sensor assembly, my contact fix wouldn't work anymore. So, I ordered a used motherboard off of Ebay and hoped that it was good. It worked great! So far, I've replaced the battery, brush assembly, front sensors, and now the motherboard. #roomba #motherboard #560

Hi everyone, i have roomba 531 (charging error 3 also) BTW Thank you for your video, i was watching it today to help me get to the motherboard in order to clean its contacts. They wasn't so dirty but yes there is some buildup between C112 & C113 (around contact area) so i scrubbed it clean and guess what? still no results...so as i was sitting and watching my disassembled roomba still blinking her red error lights, suddenly the idea hits me. Without unplugging the roomba i put it on its back, removed the cover and took off battery, so she complained - charging error 1...please charge roomba. I replaced the battery and there she is - charging!

The battery contacts on the board are sometimes oxidized, they must be cleaned well, possibly tinned. This is how I repaired my Irobot and now it is perfectly functional

I posted this elsewhere and here's my fix for error 3....

It's videos like this that make life so much easier and affordable. I got a new original iRobot motherboard from Japan and thanks to this, Roomba was charging like new. Thanks!

This was very helpful. I watched and watched you take out all those screws...I said screw that and tossed the whole thing in the trash. Thanks

Solved adding more solder to the pads and bending a bit the battery contacts. To check if this will work, push the solder pads down and it should start charging.

I found 6 bad solder joints on the motherboard i fixed my problem by re soldering the bad solder joits most of the bad solder joints were on the electrolytic capacitors it seem's like they use really cheap solder you could scrape it off really easy

Merci pour cette vidéo excellente, est-ce que quelqu'un connaît la valeur des condensateurs C112 et C113 ? Merci de votre aide

[@jaraalbert]

of course it going to work you just changed the motherboard to a new motherboard you did not troubleshoot the old board

Lol... changing the mother board because of battery issue is a freaking joke.
