• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

FOBO Trike

Has anyone experienced problems with their Fobo Trike app for iPhone since upgrading to EITHER IOS 11.0.2 OR FoboTrike app version 2.16?
Specifically, not syncing.

TIA
AJ
 
I upgraded my 6s to 11.0.2 last night, Paladin. I started the app in the kitchen where it was “disconnected”, and just wandered out toward the garage about 60’ away, and it started synching with the F3 on the way there. By the time I reached the internal garage door, all tyres and my air bag were synced. :hun: I didn’t even know Bluetooth would sync that far away.

Thanks Pete
Something is up cause I tried with my wife's iPhone using 11.0.2 and Fobo app 12.6 and it didnt work either.
The chances of ALL probes dying the same time is like NILL :)
Well guess it's time to call Fobo :(

I’m running FOBO Bike vers. 2.16 (I assume that’s what you meant to type above;)) as well, AJ. Very odd ! :hun:

I had a few wheels not wanting to sync and just changed the battery out and they worked even after it showed the battery was still good. It also has a .2 pound error on all the tires. when I remove them they show a .2 pounds of air in the fobo app. There is something wrong and I suspect it has to do with the temp reading affecting it. On my app I also have my wifes Harley.
 
Thanks to all!

Well, I'm at a complete loss, because today I went out to give the setup one last try before going completely bonkers

AND

When I loaded the app everything was there like it never was a problem!!!!:yikes:
Not even going to try to figure this one out, but the only thing I can think of is that I was receiving some BT interference from source somewhere.
So for the moment everything back to NORMAL? :yes:
 
Good news, AJ.......I have noticed a couple of times that synching takes significantly longer, for reasons I have never discovered.

Changed batteries the other day on one of my spyder's FOBO's and it wouldn't sync back up to the tire. I did everything I could think of but still no sync. Finally out of frustration I put the FOBO on my truck tire stem just to see what would happen. I'm running 65 psi in my truck tires. As I screwed on the FOBO to the stem I heard a "pssss..pop" sound and the FOBO came on and sync'd up showing 65 psi. I took it off and placed back on my spyder and it worked just fine and is still working. Don't ask me why, I'm not that smart, but it worked.

I had the same experience when I updated to the X model.
Finally decided to test the batteries.
All THREE were DEAD!
Who would have thought all three would die the same time? But they did!
So if you have not yet and are able to, check the batteries.

FOBO Problem

My rear tire monitor was not showing up, so I replaced the battery. Wouldn't recognize, so I took it out of the system, now I have to reinstall. Not done yet, hope this does it. Before, when I would touch the phone to the sensor it would just sit there spinning. Saying Wait.
