WLS Fail

Post by mccork »

Just got a new GenIII unit (warranty replacement) and now on my first 3 rides since, I got the WLS Fail message; once on the trainer, twice for outdoor rides. One after about 50 min, after stopping (on the trainer), once after 1hr 10 min and once after 2 hours (didn't stop either time). When I get WLS fail message I am unable to get the unit working again during that ride. I noticed that the unit itself is still working (tilt looks correct) but no speed, cadence or HR.

I did a hard reset of the mount and unit before my ride today but same issue.

If the problem is with the mount, why would it start when I get the new Gen III unit? I don't understand that.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Did you try new batteries in the head unit and/or cadence & speed sensors. I got this issue last weekend.
But then changed out the battery in the head unit and was back in business.

Best of luck

I'll try new batteries all around to see if that solves the issue.

Thanks.

All brand new batteries and issue is still occurring. I have to assume the connection from the mount to my new unit is not working correctly. I also noticed that my new battery in the ibike is down to 275 after only 40 min riding. I don't know if that is the same issue or not.

Other than a new mount any ideas?
