Hoverboard Malfunctions

What can break down the hoverboard?

 

Based on the experience we have accumulated, we will understand the breakdown of the hoverboard in order of decreasing frequency of the owners' appeals:

The main, main or "motherboard" of the hoverboard

 

The most complex and most technological element of the hoverboard, which is responsible for everything. The heart of the hoverboard, where all the other components are connected. This board is the most common cause of malfunction of hoverboards.

Symptoms of a mainboard hoverboard:

 

1. The hoverboard indicator flashes red 2 times, when the pedal is pressed, the buzzer sounds and the engines do not work.

 

Quite a frequent malfunction, called service centers like "firmware rally" or "second error". The cause of this malfunction may be incorrect calibration, a strong impact or a gyro board flip.

 

In general, the service centers do not deal with the elimination of this fault and offer replacement of the main board in its entirety. In the event that there is no board compatible with the other components of your gyroscope, it is proposed to replace the entire set of cards, which is very expensive.

 

2. The Hoverboard does not turn on or off with the button on the case

board hoverboard A fairly frequent and unpleasant malfunction associated with the failure of the main board. In this case, the hoverboard is usually turned on and off from the remote control. But for a long time it is not recommended to use the device, because such operation causes an increased discharge of the battery and can lead to a reduction in its life.

 

As a rule, in this case, replacement of the boards is not required, you need a small repair of the main board, with which the service center will cope as soon as possible.

Malfunctions of the side, wheel or hoverboard boards:

 

The sideboard very rarely causes the hoverboard to malfunction and fails as a rule due to mechanical damage or moisture ingress.

 

Symptoms of a wheel circuit malfunction are as follows:

 

  • One wheel of a hoverboard does not go, at the same time very often, the illumination from the non-working side constantly lights up;
  • The sensitivity to pressing the hoverboard pedal is decreased or increased;
  • The speed of rotation of the wheels is significantly different, even after the calibration of the device.

Hoverboard Battery Malfunction:

 

Good hoverboards are equipped with reliable, durable and safe Samsung batteries, with which, as a rule, problems are very rare.

 

Causes of battery failure can be deep discharge, violation of operating rules, moisture penetration and mechanical damage, which can occur in the following:

 

  • Reducing the capacity of the battery, while, as a rule, the time for the full charging of the gyro;
  • Absence of signaling about discharge during operation;
  • Hoverboard does not turn on and does not charge;

A good battery is the most expensive part of a hoverboard, and the cost of replacing it with a new one is sometimes frightening. The specialists of the service center will make a qualitative diagnosis and repair of your battery with the replacement of the failed components. After repair, a full capacity and signaling test is performed.

Malfunction of the hoverboard wheel:

 

Malfunctions of motor-wheels are very rare. As a rule, they occur in case of mechanical damage or factory rejection.

If the wheels of your hoverboard have begun to vibrate excessively, creak or make other extraneous sounds, most likely they need repairs.

 

In case of a puncture of the hoverboard wheel, you can use the repair kit from the bicycle or contact the nearest tire fitting to seal the camera.

 

Fault bluetooth board hoverboard:

 

The presence of audio speakers in your hoverboard is a nice option. But unfortunately, the Bluetooth-card can cause the device to malfunction. Do not abuse the long listening to music at the maximum, "locking" the volume.

 

As a rule, if this board fails, it must be replaced with a new one.

Metal hoverboard frame:

 

The only, encountered failure of the metal frame is the breaking of the rotation limiter of the hoverboard parts. In this case, the two parts of the hoverboard begin to rotate freely relative to each other.

 

It is not recommended to use a hoverboard with a broken limiter, first, it is very unsafe for the rider, and secondly it can lead to significant damage to the internal parts and wires of the hoverboard.

 

The specialists of the service center perform the restoration of the limiter, and in case of impossibility, the replacement of the frame part will be offered.

 

Hoverboard, with its small size, is a rather complex device, maintenance and repair of which must be done by professionals in a specialized service center. We do not recommend self-repair. Contact the service center if it is found so that:

 

  • Hoverboard quickly discharged
  • Cracked hoverboard body
  • Hoverboard does not charge
  • Hoverboard does not turn on
  • Hoverboard turns on but does not go
  • The music on the hoverboard does not work
  • Hoverboard is shaking badly
  • The moisture in the hoverboard got wet
  • Do not spin the hoverboard wheel
