Favorite Segway thing . . .

Do not give up your Segway. Please, don't do it. You've spent too much time on it.

As to the spelling correction, ok. Everybody has that problem; the question is do they see it and correct it is the real question. Kudos to you Lilnyc.

On another note, I hope it is not a cliff like Jimi had to deal with. Be careful.

Hi Seginaway,

I'm not sure how high the cliff was that Jimi fell from, but this one didn't seem very high. However, it was over the Hudson River, so it was definitely dangerous.

Great news though. I tried two electric kick scooters and didn't like them.

I've decided to stick with my Segway. Thanks for your response and suggestion.

After 10,000 miles and many great glides, I got on Trigger and she shut down almost immediately with Error Code E047; continues to do so even after a reboot. According to SegChat that error code has to do with MOTOR VOLTAGE CONSISTENCY FAULT.

Has anyone had any experience with this error code? Also, is this an issue only corrected by Inc. or could a Segway Dealer, appropriately skilled, solve this issue.

TIA.

I had this happen, and it's a factory repair. Confirm this with your local dealer.

mine seems to read my mind and goes there its a great way to meet new friends for an older disabled man

Tried many things and nothing worked, so Trigger is off to Bedford (facilitated by my Dealer, Segway of LV) for internal repairs: Error Codes E047 (multiple & ongoing), E04F (once) and E014 (resulting from taking the platform apart to clean/reseat power connectors). I was able to correct E014 as the M to F plugs became unseated during my dis and re-assembly.

It's now been four (4) weeks trying to fix Trigger unsuccessfully and it now looks like another four (4) or more till delivery, repair and resend from INC; so I've been quite depressed. Also concerned that the Li-Ion's have no charging capability while the platform is at INC, but what can one do?

Wondering what other service INC. may feel is warranted after 10,000 miles. Maybe a whole new X2?

Trigger was sent to Bedford and delivery accepted two (2) weeks ago and I haven't heard a word. Pete, what was your timeframe for repair and transit? Did you have to send it to Bedford or was it somewhere on the West Coast?

As each day goes by, my Segway withdrawal pains increase. Roc Maverick is doing no better as his only exercise has been bike related in the asphalt jungles rather than our typical romps through the woods, creeks and corn fields.

A day without my Segway, is a day without so many Favorite Segway Things. . . .

7 WEEKS!!!!!!! Oh, the humanity!
BTW, what was your error/reason for repair?

7 weeks without Trigger and spring is coming. I'm getting even more depressed.
