I had an old micro-USB port wire connected to my computer. I still use it for a music player. I couldn't remember if it was my usb-c for my newer devices (wasn't wearing my glasses), so I tried to plug it into my Amazon Kindle Fire 10 HD to see if it fit.
I might have pushed a little bit, but not with any force. But my Kindle will not turn on now. And I saw no light when I tried to charge it; not sure where the charging light is, for it has a case and I haven't looked for it. I used it last two days ago, and I didn't charge it afterward. I think it had above 50% battery life. After this Darwin Award mishap, I charged it for 4 hours, and no change.
The kicker is I didn't turn it on to see if it could turn on before I attempted to plug it into my computer. I wanted to copy some files over before a trip, and i just wanted to see if it would fit. But I think I caused a short.
Can old micro-USB cord cause a short if pressed into a USB-c device? What are my options? Thanks
