Fuzzypixel Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 For some reason the side lights and the speaker on my V8 (a couple of years and a five hundred miles old) stopped working. Not making sound when starts and stops and the speed warnings are gone as well. The forward light works and it rides fine otherwise. It did took a few steps tumble a few weeks ago so it may be related but the lights and speaker stopped working a few days later I think. Any ideas on how to diagnose?

Sidewalk Enforcer Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Does the Inmotion app built-in diagnostic function report any issues? Otherwise all I can advise is shell disassembly and try to find the loose connection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post hyperair Posted April 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Try reuploading a sound and light effects pack from the Inmotion app. Sometimes the data gets corrupted in the board. If you get "transfer failed" while trying to do so, turn off light effects, then go to "Diagnostics > Erase all data" and try again. This worked on an Inmotion V8 with firmware 0.9.825.

ElectErich Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I had the exact same problem (after I was playing with the EUC World app - If you donate, you can get a speed sensitive Harley motorcycle sound, but since the V8 doesn't have Bluetooth speakers, it's more fun on my daughter's KS-14D). It worked for me too. I tried changing the light pack, but it was downloading the default sound pack that made the difference. I was about ready to take it apart to look for a loose connection. This is a great age for sharing information. Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
