New battery not holding charge

History

My kid pitched my iPod video and the screen broke. I just dealt with the broken screen for the past year. I finally replaced it yesterday and decided to replace the battery as well since I would have the case open. My old battery wasn't holding a charge and so I guessed that it was just old. The new battery is now not holding a charge at all. Any guesses as to the problem? It plays fine except totally dies when unplugged.

Well, the battery may be not connected (it can't charga/it can't gove energy/it isn't recognised), my sister's iPod showed the same problem, the one thing you have to do is to give it back, it's most probably a logic board problem, impossible to fix.

It is definitely possible that the replacement battery is defective. Try returning the part and getting a replacement before writing the whole thing off.

If a replacement doesn't fix the problem, it's most like the logic board that must be replaced.
