O-ld is 'overload'. There are some fixes here. The first thing I would do is remove the battery and leave it overnight. Replace the batteries with new ones. If you think it may be possible that you are overloading the scale, put a bag of sugar or flour on them to test.

I believe you put the wrong batteries in.
This pack of 2 high quality CR2032 batteries are ideal for Salter bathroom scales. Please check that this is the correct battery for your scales. Diamter 20mm, thickness 3.2mm. With long shelf life, these CR2032 batteries are the perfect replacement.

Apparently uses 1 CR 2 battery per ad on Amazon

new batteries? or one's that have been sitting around.

what they say to do...
1.
Open the battery compartment on the scale underside.
2.
Remove isolating tab from beneath the battery (if fitted) or insert batteries OBSERVING the polarity signs (+ and -) inside the battery compartment.
3.Close the battery compartment.
4. Select kg, st or lb weight mode by the switch on the
underside of the scale.
5.For use on carpet attach enclosed carpet feet.
6.Position scale on a firm flat surface. next......
INITIALISING YOUR SCALE
1. Press the platform centre and remove your foot.
2.'0.0' will be displayed.
3.The scale will switch off and is now ready for use.
This initialisation process MUST be repeated if the scale is moved. ie battery replacement.

I had the same problem with my Salter 987 scale. Pull the battery out for about 10 seconds and put it back in. Then push the scale once so it turns on. After the blinking stops, push it once more. The scale will now zero itself. After the scale has zero'd itself it may turn off after a brief moment. It's now ready to use normally. If you're standing on the scale when it's trying to calibrate to zero, it will assume your weight is zero. Don't stand on the scale after replacing the battery untill you first complete the steps listed above.
