Lost readings

About 45 min. on a recent ride, all readings in the screen went zero. Seems like it lost all signals. Batteries are good. After riding for more than 2 miles trying all button combination, I end up shutting the unit down and turn it back up. Any idea what might have happened? Thanks

Check your wireless mount. If all signals were zero then your mount battery might be bad.

Just had new battery installed. After shutting it off, numbers came back on again. Is this a software/hardware hickup?

It sounds like your iBike lost communication with the mount. This can happen if the iBike is bumped hard. The simple fix is to remove/reattach the iBike.

Makes sense. We did ride over some bumpy road which might have knocked it out of connection. When I take it off /on the mount, do I need to power it off then on again?

Still having the same problem. I would loose readings after a few minutes into the ride. Another problem occurred. After powering it off then on, to somehow reset the unit, I get only speed reading. No power and HR readings. I just installed new battery. Very frustrating.....

It could be the battery in the unit temporarily losing contact. Try putting a small piece of electrical tape (maybe two) over the battery cover. That will apply more pressure when the unit is on the head.
