Calibration

]I have already emailed support but thought I'd post here as well
I am having problem with calibrating my Powerpod.
The Powerpod worked fine on the 28/10/18 whilst competing in a local MTB race. The following day I swapped my PP to my Road Bike to go and race a local crit. I followed my usual prcess of swapping betwen bikes, however my garmin did not find the powermetre. I was able to get the sensors to pair after pressing the button for 4 secs and initating a O and B calibration ride however the calibration failed and I was unable to complete it before the crit started. After the race I was able to calibrate the PP with an O and B ride. I didn't ride my road bike untill Friday when I rode my local coffee loop. Everythihing paired however the subsequent data was off and the ride produced a TSS of 123 (using Training Peaks) where I would usually expect a TSS of 75-80.
On Monday I completed another sensor scan in an attempted to iniate another O&B calibration Ride. However at the end of each calibration ride once I hit 100 W the light on the PP woiuld start flashing red and green and wanted to iniate another calibration ride.
As a result I held the button for 12 seconds to initiate a hard reset and the whent through the set up process on the device using Issac. I attempted today to complete another O and B ride however the PP will not go into calibration mode. I completed another sensor scan and everything synced. However the PP will never move from solid yellow. It will allow me to ride to 100 W but the lights never go to flashing red or green and remains solid yellow the whole time. After 100 W the light goes green and I get Power but it is inaccurate. I would have like to attach todays ride file but for some reason it hasn't saved.
I have checked if the Powerpod is level and have attached a photo. I have been through the forums to search for any other solutions however I am not having much luck.
I have attached a photo of my powerpod
The ride file from my last successfull ride ( labled MTB)
The ride file from the coffee ride (labled coffee ride)
and my last susccessfull road ride with power (labeled flatlands)
