need help with topeak d torq wrench problem
Quote | Reply
I bought the wrench 15 months ago and has worked fine up to this point. Really don't use it that much.....pretty much only during my 7-8 events per year. Let it sit for about the past 5 months with no use. Now it doesn't turn on.....put in new battery but still won't turn on....no display. Anyone else ever have an issue with this wrench? It's still under warranty and I'll call Topeak Monday but just wondering if anyone has had the same problem....and how to fix.

Clean the terminals with the usual candidates. Alcohol etc.
Make sure you have the correct battery.
Make sure it is in the right way up.

Don't leave fingerprints on button cells, that discharges them.
If you are not using it for months at a time take the batteries out.
