Wolfmann Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Hello, A couple of days ago I was creating new led themes using my Inmotion app and I was transfering them to my V8 wheel. After couple of trials it happend that most of the leds of one led stripe stopped shining. I looks like below: https://www.icloud.com/sharedalbum/pl-pl/#B02GdIsha9KoL I don't know what happened. Is it possible that the part of leds stripe broke down? Maybe I should reset the wheel. Does anybody know how to do it? Thank you for any help, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mono Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 How many themes did you upload? It has been reported that the memory of the wheel is limited and hitting the limit leads to rather unforeseen effects. So what you see might be the result of hitting the memory limit. Can't help for the reset question :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfmann Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 You are right. I uploaded it many times. So how can I free the memory? Can you help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mono Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I can't remember the solution to the problem, but you might try google using the "site:http://forum.electricunicycle.org" option (without the quotes) to search the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mono Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 OK, I found something in a French forum you might try: when you turn on the wheel keep pushing the on button until you hear a voice. No guaranties from my side on the effects where my hunch would be that it leads to some sort of factory reset. https://www.espritroue.fr/topic/1641-v8-configuration-des-leds/#comment-35584 and a related thread https://www.espritroue.fr/topic/1756-v8-problème-de-son-et-de-led Let us know how it goes.

Thanks, this is what I was asking for weeks ago when I mentioned easter eggs in our wheels. It did not reset AFAIK, but it is not an Inmotion either. Do you know how to reset a Ninebot? Not that I want too, just fun to know things like that. BTW, I had to google translate the French forums, it was not completely understandable, only that the person had some feeling of success. As far as what the problem was, I am not sure, something wasn't working right and now it does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can vaguely remember a trick of lying the wheel to/on the side while doing something (push some button?), but I don't even know whether this was with the Ninebot. In the above mentioned thread there was a problem with the LEDs and the sound of an V8 which was apparently solved by the above mentioned approach.

steve454 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I remember that too, but which wheel, no. But I tried it with my Ninebot, and the lights were blinking red and the beeps sounded like some kind of code, like beep beep beep bebeep beep beep beep bebeep. Then I turned it off and will ride it tomorrow to see if anything seems different. Thanks again for reminding me of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaouad OB Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 From the first week I have the problem with the lights. But now I also have it with the sound ... is there any way to restart the inmotion v8? I have disconnected the battery for a few hours, but the problem remains the same.

Wolfmann Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 I tried to keep pushing the button while turning on the wheel but nothing happened. The only thing is that the front light turn on. I also tried to keep pushing the button while turning off and the front lights turn off. Thank you for any suggestions.

Jason McNeil Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 The earliest batches of the V8 had the occasional failed LED strip. If you contact the seller of your Wheel, they should be able to arrange to send you a replacement. It's pretty easy to do, strips have adhesive applied, so it's just a matter of running them around groves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfmann Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 I bought the led stripe. I will tell you when I replace it. I hope it would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfmann Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Today I got the parcel with leds from WheelGo. I replaced them and now it works. It took about 20 min to do it. Thanks Jason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
