Most (all?) Gen II error codes are four digits. If it's E205, it apparently translates to: "The CU A is reporting a sensory fault (BSA DRIFT FAULT", meaning one of the controller boards thinks the balance assembly is telling lies.

Or, it might be "The Rear CU Board reports: Power base fault"., meaning that it is broken and Segway won't say why.

Both meanings of E205 have been posted here. Segway won't release their list of error codes, and dealers (who visit this forum regularly) also refuse to do so. Either they are bound by non-disclosure (although they could SAY THAT), or they don't have the error codes themselves, or perhaps they think it's good business not to divulge error codes.


In any case, those who have had E205 have needed repairs from either their dealer (if they are skilled enough), or the mother ship. Get in touch with your dealer. The machine is still under warranty.
