      • Begin to reassemble the Yoto, leaving the old circle charger off. Reconnect any items disconnected during SD servicing. Without adding any screws get the battery, speakers (unibody or with additional divider) and the LED back in place. Snake the USB wires and plug into POGO. Do not plug the old power into anything but replace it in the bottom.

Love it, but I don’t see a picture of the finished product.

I have done this and followed all the instructions, when I plug the usb in to a powered cable the yoto switches off. Is this what it is supposed to do? If not, any suggestions? Thanks!
