How to FIX a BRICKED Arduino Pro Micro

[@minjaekuo3931]

This was so helpful! I thought my pro micro was worthless, but now I can use it again! TH-cam needs more indepth, useful videos like this.

holy smokes you fixed my pro micro! so glad I didn't throw it away. I hit upload and just touched a piece of metal to gnd + reset 2x real quick and it said it was successful!!!! THANK YOU KIND SIR!!!

[@StuartPatterson]

Nice work!

[@CameronSouthall]

Thanks for this. This issue was making me go crazy

[@StuartPatterson]

You bet!

[@jheinrichk]

Thanks for this. How to select the right comm if it disapears?

[@StuartPatterson]

It will come back after the rest, but it only gives you about 8 seconds to select the com port if it is not already selected to the correct one.

so i’ve tried this, and i get nothing. is there a way to completely reset the board as it was from the factory

[@StuartPatterson]

Sorry, not that I am aware of

[@halfend8199]

hey. do you know by chance if there's any difference between this pro micro and the pro micro with usbc that is purple? the only difference i could find is something about voltage. i got it bc usbc but i can't get piezoelectrics to work on this thing and i was wondering if there isn't anything else i should be doing bc of model differences

[@StuartPatterson]

Interesting. No I have not seen a purple one with usb-c but I will check it out when I have time. Sorry I can’t be more help.

muchas gracias cabra🐐🐐

[@StuartPatterson]

Glad to help

[@aryah1513]

Why does your pro micro look like a pro macro??? That thing is huge compared to mine. Don't get cocky about it though.

[@StuartPatterson]

No idea. Small hands? lol
