If your Meade ETX-125 telescope won't power on after replacing the batteries, consider the following possible issues:
1. Battery Condition – Ensure you are using fresh, new AA-type Alkaline batteries (ANSI 15A, 15AC/IEC LR6) and that all batteries are replaced at once. Avoid mixing old and new batteries. 2. Battery Installation – Confirm that the batteries are installed correctly with proper polarity (+ and -). 3. Battery Contacts – Clean the battery contacts and the device's battery terminals to remove any dirt or corrosion. 4. Power Connection – Ensure the battery compartment is securely closed and making proper contact. 5. Factory Reset – If the telescope previously powered on but now doesn't respond, try resetting it to factory defaults by navigating to Setup/Reset if possible.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, there may be an internal power connection problem or a fault in the electronics.
