Tacx Flux - Broken - Need Help!

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Having trouble with a broken Tacx Flux. Bought secondhand on bikehub, and it broke 5 rides in. No use crying over spilt milk. Would like to get it fixed now.

 

The problem is:

 

- red/green light flickers (no power?? belt issue???)

- orange light flickers, do an update, returns to red/green issue

- connects to phone and shows, but no power, no calibration (no data transfer??)

- also no connectivity to macbook for zwifting purposes.

 

I already emailed garmin, who seems to be Tacx agents in SA, but to no avail.

 

Does anyone have any ideas or advice on the way forward, other than to just buy a Kickr  :whistling:

Have you tried searching on Youtube. The original Flux seems to have had a few issues and fixes are well documented.
