Hi @vernoid,

It could be due to a few reasons:

1. The Hoverboard pressure sensor nipples might be too elongated to an extent that they seem that the slightest of pressure is asking the board to go full pelt. You can check yourself, and if so, snip less than a mm off it at the top.

2. The Blue, Yellow and Green connectors on the motor might not be properly connected or incorrectly connected. Check that again. This could be why it is responding strangely.

3. The board might simply need a reset/recalibration.

Hope this helps.

Hi @MystDiamond_TDCL

It sounds like either your battery needs replacing or your motherboard is fried.

My daugher's Jester hover board is not working correctly on the power side.  When she gets on it no lights flash or it doesn't shut down it just doesn't roll smoothly.  It's almost as if she is jerking forward a little at a time.  I tried to factory reset it, and the same thing is still happening.  I took it apart to make sure nothing was loose and causing a glitch everything seemed good... as far as i can tell.  Any suggestions?

Hi, great post! I have a gyroor board that my son got wet. I’ve replaced the boards, but made a pop sound on power up, and back to the same problem, won’t power on. Any thoughts?
