Hello folks,
Bought a pair of P1 pedals just after its release, on august 2015. Didn't use until 2016 for personal problems. Since then I have rode only something like 10k km on then, swapping between my road and my TT bike. Never had any issue until last thursday, my last final ride on them.
Yesterday I went for a ride and quickly realise something was wrong. Cadence was off what I perceive and power way too high. Then, cadence dropped to about half what I was doing and power drop to almost zero. Removed from my garmin edge 520, calibrated again, stopped and waited until the pedals went to sleep mode, nothing. Stoped my ride and came back home.
Moved to my TT bike on the trainer, changed batteries (that was still good) and updated the firmware.
Then, tried again. Still not working.
So for some reason I started to ride using the PowerTap app for iphone. A message saying that my left pedal was not connected to my right pedal was showed Odd. The message also said that this would be ok if I use with bluetooth, but not ok to use via ANT+. I clicked to connect both. All good.
Tried again and still not working.
I then opened each pedal individually within the app and I saw that my right pedal was showing cadence and power numbers correct. But when I went to check the left pedal, cadence was WRONG. About half or less of what actually was happening. I can make an educated guess that for that reason, power numbers wont be right, even thought the right pedal was ok. I also checked the crank arm lenght.
So I kept pedalling while watching the dashboard of PowerTap app. After some 45 seconds the cadence from the left side was spot on again, and the power numbers jumped for what I know is the right number. So I kept pedalling more 3 minutes and everything was fine. I did one leg drills and the balance was right, the cadence was right. Oh god, it was a relieve.
But unfortunately, yesterday I was preparing my stuff and went for a lap inside my building garage and, for my absolute sadness, same problem again. I Opened Rouvy on my android phone and the left pedal was showing wrong cadence numbers again.
Tried everything again, but this time with no sucess.
Here a few videos I recorded:
1)
2)
3)
The main problem is that the warranty has expired and I live overseas, so send it over to Saris is gonna be a PITA.
Please, any magical answer to that? Especially considering that after the initial problem it came to life for a moment.
Thank you in advance and sorry for the long post.
