- I tried so many things but it wasn't responding. I updated all the drivers and I uninstalled the surface pen and installed again. Nothing happened. Lastly, I used Microsoft diagnostic tool and I fixed it.

I have spent so much time tried so many different ways and this is the only one finally fixed it, amazing! thank you
You’re welcome
I tried the link he put in the description and i cant see where to download it ?
aka.ms/surfacerepair
Didnt do anything. How was it supposed to fix the pen anyways since there was no testing for the pen?
YAY! You're the ONLY one to tell me about the Microsoft Surface Diagnostic Toolkit. That totally worked! Probably a driver.
I am very proud of myself thanks
Thank you for this video. Do you know if this method works for any Stylus pen and touchscreens? I'm asking because I bought Lenovo ThinkPad P15v, which initially does not support a stylus pen even though it has a touchscreen. But I select this touchscreen as an option in the configurator. I am now waiting for the delivery of my PC and would like to know whether it is possible to use a pen and, if so, which pen to select. Thank you for your answers and for the video!
Thank you so much man, I don't know why this isn't listed anywhere when I googled for advice but you saved my ass.
You are funny
써피스 펜 구입후1년 안에 이런 증상있어 한번은 교환하고 1년후 몇번 이런 증상 있어 한국 마이크로 소프트 서비스 센타에서는 글씨안써지구 그림 안그려진다하니 새것을 서비스기간 1년이 넘어서 다시사라구 했는데 이분 비디오 보구 해보니 버리려다가 다시되네요 대박!!!감사합니다 ❤
Thank you for this video. My wife used this method for her pen and now it works!
Awesome to hear that
Hi, thanks for the tip. It works, Nice to see the surface pen back to life. Thank you for saving $ 100.. Cheers
i cant express how grateful i am to you and your video. it really did fix my problems with the surface slim pen - buttons working but no cursor, no writing! thank you so much!
You’re welcome 🙏🏻
Thank you so muchhhh :(( it totally saved me 💖 Wish you all the best 🙇♀️
BRO THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I HAVE SPENT SO MUCH TIME FOR FIXING THIS.. YOUR SOLUTION REALLY WORKED!! NOW MY SURFACE CAN BE USE AGAIN WITH PEN. THANKS BRO! LOVE FROM MALAYSIA
Wonderful. Love from USA to Malaysia
this finally worked, thank you so much. tried the microsoft ones to no avail :(
All, if the video doesn't work for you try manually adding the pen to your bluetooth devices, restarting your pc and pulling the battery. These extra steps helped solve my issue.
This actually worked!! I've been having issues with my pen for months and I just used it after running the diagnostic and it actually worked! Thank you so much for posting this, I've been trying to figure out what was wrong with it for months!
I am glad that helped. You are welcome
@@Techgeniusideas how long does it take to the software update on the surface pro 7
@@angelus1ish2hours
It worked! Thank you!
After freaking out for an hour (while it didn't work right out the box), this video saved me. Thanks man!
After trying many things, I solved my problem when I thought I might try to change the position of the battery. I'ts kind of counterintuitive. You are supposed to put the battery with the pin upwards. It worked! Maybe someone else did the same thing.
great video, this fixed it for me too, thanks!!!
Followed what is in the video and my surface pen was working - touch good... Thank you
Glad it helped
thank you man, more than money , I m sending you blessing to you and your family 🙏
Appreciate it
Thanks for the HELP, it worked for me as well!!!!!!
thank you, i couldnt run my surface pen almost for week and i finaly found solution here.
Glad I could help!
thanks for this, but I've done the test 2x and the pen still not working. Th button is working fine but it wont draw...I'm clueless
can i ask something can my lifebook pen use on any hp laptop
Thank you for sharing this!!! I had bought new tips & a new pen from a different brand & it still didn’t fix my problem. Because of your video my stylus now works 🙌🏽
Awesome
This is amazing, it works!
I had to unpair and re-pair my pen at least two dozen times before I got frustrated and started ramming the shortcut button on the table (I was throwing the pen away anyway) and voila'! it worked again! "Percussive maintenance" actually does work by banging it on the table.
👏
@@Techgeniusideas LOL. The Windows O/S is such a deliberate but pathetic embarrassment to the electronics world. If people only knew.
I heard that from so many people :)
I have tried this, but it didn't help. My pen's button works but the pen doesn't drawing. I checked it's battery on Surface app it shows 0%, although I just put completly new battery. I checked tha battery works fine on other devices and the pen is neither broken. How can I fix it?
thank You boss. work it .amazing !!!
THANK YOU CAPTAIN, YOU'VE EARNED MY RESPECT. YOU'RE THE BEST.❤❤❤
🙏🏻
Funcionou aqui tb mas antes reiniciei o surface pressionando o shift e habilitei o Bluetooth que não habilitava antes pelo painel de configuração. Valeu
Thaaanksss my friend, you are the best!!
No problem 😉
You are life saver. 🙂
bro which company pen is that and can it work for core i5 10th gen windows 11 if not pls suggest one pen under 2000
It works! Thanks alot..
Worked for me thanks - surface pro 4
Thanks bro. Wow wonderfu!!l it so nice it works as you said.! You are amazing guy
You're welcome!☺️ you are also amazing 😻
Zero effect for me, thank you for the guidance though. I replaced the tip, replaced the battery, uninstalled and reinstalled drivers, unpaired and re-paired the pen, ran the diagnostics, restarted the Surface, still not working. The top button works, but zero response from the screen when the pen tip is touching the screen, in any app.
I had another pen. The metal connection tore apart. The top button was working but the writing
There is nothing you can do. Replace the pen
Thanks!!!!!!! It works in my Surface Pro 5 gen.
You're welcome!
I just did the diagnostic test and it didn't work so I am not sure what else to do. My pen eraser is working. I just switched batteries as wells so I know it is a new battery. Although the pen tip is still not writing, painting, or working at all. The green light does show up on the stylus though. Could this be a tip issue? A hardware issue in the pen or surface pro7?
Thanks for sharing this tip.
There could be mechanical problem. Did you pair the pen correctly?
I have exactly the same problem. Did you ever find a solution??
@@ImARainbowLlama I have the same problem. I tried so many things, new driver, new updates, new battery, diagnostic toolkit. The button still works, the tip of the pen doesn't. Being an illustrator this means I cannot work!
I understand and my wife is an illustrator. You cannot do anything without that pen. It is probably hardware issue. If it is, there is nothing you could do.
@@ImARainbowLlama I called Microsoft and explained my issue and since it was still under the 1 year warranty of my purchase they sent a new one. That one came, I used it one time, and then never worked. I called them back with my case number for the previous pen issue and they sent a second one. I hope you find a fix!
The app doesn't work maybe in you guys time but not anymore tells me to get the new version and when I do it tell me I already have it like wtf.
Thank you thank you thank you. A million thank you and god bless you. Thank you is not just for saving $100 but also saving time that means so much for me and efforts which goes to waste as I was not able to find any clue why the pen was not working. Such an easy fix and Microsoft never talks about it anywhere. Thank you and god bless you.
Nedemek patron. Tesekkurler
I agree 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 , thanks so much. This diagnostic tool's result didn't reveal a pen problem but somehow after restarting performing the diagnostic test And after restarting, the pen finally started writing. (Prior to the diagnostic test I tried various other troubleshooting methods like replacing the battery, unpairing and re-pairing the pen Bluetooth connection to the surface pro, etc.... Magically the pen stopped working on my other surface) .... But thanks to the combination of this this free diagnostic tool and restarting, the pen works on both of my surface Pro laptops.
it works, thank you so much
You're welcome!
It really doesn't make sense why, but it worked. Thank you!!
Glad it helped!
Sadly my surface pen continues to not write
There could be mechanical problem
You saved me there, thanks alot~😊
You’re welcome
Thank you so much 🙏🏾
You are welcome
Still didn't work rip
it does not work for me it says that it is not compatible with my device (my device is a surface pro 7)
hey, this worked when nothing else did. ridiculous, but BIG THANKS @STEM Activities
does this apply to all pens ? my raphael 530 acting weird and not working,the eraser is acting as pen and the point side isnt drawing.
This method is only for surface products
This was really helpful, thank you so much for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
hi bro its really working thanks, thank you so much, we are very much happy
Bu özelliği bilmiyordum çok iyiymiş :):)
My pen fell and then it couldn’t write anymore but the button still works i thought maybe the lead from the pen was the problem so I took it out and put it in again it still doesn’t work. Is it bad that I took the lead of the pen out will it still work or do I need a new lead
If the problem is with the lid, that is ok but I don’t think the problem is lid. Try to do your best to fix it with the diagnostics and if it doesn’t work, it will be mechanical.
Omaigat it's really working, thank you very much
Glad to hear that
Thank you
im beyond this point already, have done all these steps before but pen still not writing. Shortcuts/buttons do but i need it to write
I am sorry 😞
@@Techgeniusideas nevermind. MS exchanged it already
It worked on my surface pro 6!
my problem is very strange, it was working perfectly till i touched an interactive tv at the university to signal something to my friends, i touched the interactive tv with the pen, and the pen was able to interact with the tv i mean, i did not expect that, anyways, when i sat down and tried to write, the pen part does not write, i dont know what to do. ive tried everything.
Did you try my method?
So I recently reinstalled windows and now after I came through your video I tried to install the surface diagnostic toolkit but it says cause I recently reinstalled windows I might need the latest version of the app. But I cannot find the latest version in Microsoft Store, what can I do? Please reply 🥺
Can u try this Surface Diagnostic Toolkit support.microsoft.com/en-us/surface/fix-common-surface-problems-using-the-surface-diagnostic-toolkit-f61d8d18-37a9-863d-f8d0-1982eb16f7b5
My pen doesn’t write or draw. I tried connecting it, with the Bluetooth. I guess.
What to do for mobile
Thank you man whats your paypal? I think everyone needs to send you some money even if its a little sum but just to thank you. It was a lot of help 👌❤
Thanks lili

Double Clicking the eraser has helped me out.
my pen always shuts down on me temporarily, there are times when it doesnt turn on at all, my batteries were full, to i used to hit the pen gently on my desk or press the button and keep tapping on the screen until it works, is that a bad thing?
:) my dad’s repair style. If something is broken, just hit it till it works
There will be wire connection issues
Thank a lot for saving me 100$ 👍
Hey, I don;t have a surface device I have the spectre 360 pro G2, and this app says it doesn't work on it. Same issue with the pen. Help please
I don’t think it will work on that
I was ready to take the stupid pen back but then I watched your video and it works again. The question is why?! They probably want me to upgrade to a more expensive model.
I never thought about that. That could be true. Why is it not working? The answer is unknown.
I'm gonna be honest, at first I didn't think it would work but I gave it a shot and it did fix my pen. Thanks so much
Thank you for your honest review. It was the first time I had discovered while recording this video. I was shocked when it worked :)
so I'm using the surface pen on a not surface device it worked great until it decided to not work but i don't know if I am able to download this app
What is the device?
Thx a lot😁
You're welcome 😊
It works!!!!!!! 👍👍👌👌👏👏
Just found out my battery was in backwards....that fixed it!
:)
Please I need your help. I'm using Intel core i5 7th Gen . Touch screen laptop. I tried to do this but I got an error message " Get a surface device . This app only works on specific surface devices. Please help. The Surface Diagnostic Toolkit is not opening. Please
This program is only for Microsoft Surface
Silved the issue thanks this was really helpful!!
Glad it helped!
thank you!!!
i saved $
Man, it's look like magic to me, im gonna do this right now
It worked, thanks a lot man 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks you! Finally got the pen working!
nope. still not working.
Tried this, didn't work, next step is to reset all the drivers related to the pen, still didn't work, then it's buy new tips for about $20, still didn't work. Warranty is expired so only option is to buy a new one. I'm not the only one on the customer service site asking about this so it's an extremely common problem with all the pens where right after the 1 year warranty expires the front burns itself out and you need to buy a new one for $100.
So sorry to hear that.
Yes! ThNk you! My pen wasn’t working right out of the box! Now it is 🙂
Great news
Tq, it fix my pen
You’re welcome
mine still not working!
Doesn't work
In my case the surface pro can detect my pen alright, all the clicks on the pen functioning but not writing neither eraser functions. Did try your method but no luck.
If there is a hardware issue, it is impossible.
@@Techgeniusideas new pen then? There goes my 100 bucks
Probably. I need to know the exact problem to tell you something but it is obviously a hardware issue.
my problem is that it works but is not connected via bluetooth. How is that even possible?
Did you do the diagnostics
THANK YOU!! I EVEN ALREADY BUY A NEW PEN BUT STIL DIDNT WORK. FINALLY FIND THIS AND WORK. THANKS
You are welcome
i tried, after run the test, my pen still not responsive.
1. Try to run it as an administrator.
2. Download the program from Microsoft Store
Or
3. Download it from a website

How long does it take to update the software
What do you mean update? You are installing the program and doing the diagnostics. That is it
@@Techgeniusideas the diagnostic had me update the original software.
make sure battery is installed correctly.
soo um this video did help but i just had the battery in wrong
can you do one for Android phone or tablet
What kind of android do you have?
Is there one for ASUS pen?
I don’t think so
think your 100% solution needs to be 99% as it didnt work for me
Why?
@@Techgeniusideas if i knew that i would have a problem, the solution just didn't work the pen still does not write on screen but
Didn't work on my Windows 10, what do I do?
It should work. www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/surface-diagnostic-toolkit/9nf1mr6c60zf?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
omg thank you i thought my pen was broken
You are welcome
That is an ink issue. What about when you cannot ink or use other features.
What do you mean ink issue?
why does the app have 2 stars though?
Because no one knows how to use it and where to use it
didnt work :(
