Hello, I bought a Pironman in January 2023 and run it with a Raspberry Pi 4 and an M.2 SSD card. All the time ran without errors but for 3 weeks it keeps crashing and rebooting. I’ve swapped the USB bridge to no avail. If I use the power supply from the Raspberry Pi 4, the Raspberry works, but the board no longer has any LEDs. Greetings Tino ---

It’s possible that the motherboard has malfunctioned. Please contact our customer service email ([service@sunfounder.com](mailto:service@sunfounder.com)) to replace it with a new one. ---

Already replied to your question on this thread, check it out. > [@Pironman v2 case ssd stop at random time](https://forum.sunfounder.com/t/pironman-v2-case-ssd-stop-at-random-time/647/3): > > You use a Type-C cable instead of a USB bridge to connect the SSD, after startup, check the working status whether the crash problem still occurs. If you have a multimeter, after you start the Pironman, measure the output voltage of 5V and GND of GPIO. I hope you can provide us with a video of the problem so that we can analyze and solve the problem. If the problem is caused by hardware, we will arrange to send you the corresponding hardware module.
