Hi there
I have here a Paperwhite DP75sdi (6th gen Paperwhite 2013) which is impossible to turn on.
When connected to my debian-system it says:

The buzz-word seems to be
idProduct=dead, which indicates a broken battery. So I opened the device to get the battery.
The battery however haves 2.8V.
I am mechanical engineer, but no electronics specialist.
Does it mean the battery is ok and something else is broken? Or do I have to replace the battery?
Thank you
