Anyone use this bike computer?, If so, is this a sign that the battery is running low? The other things that show on sensor are not blinking.
Never changed the battery to this computer so unsure what is involved.
Could be your wheel magnet isn’t picking up. Did it get moved? Is it aligned closely?
I will check that.
It starts out fine - no blinking, and then it will start blinking maybe 25 minutes into the session. I’ve only done 2 work outs with this happen.

Also, does the wheel magnet have some kind of battery in it? This could be going. My wired PowerTap does exactly this when the hub batteries get low. It blinked on me today 2 or 3 times which means it’s about to go. Good luck.
yeah, it means the battery is low. different things blink when either the head unit or sensor batteries are low…but i can never remember which indicator corresponds to which battery.
the batteries on those computers are a huge pain to get out…poor design, i think. in my experience, it was really really hard to pop the little cover off. you need a fat screwdriver or thin pedal wrench or something to get enough leverage to twist the cover to the “unlocked” position, and then you basically need a razor blade to pry it off.
Blinking speed is a low battery on the wheel sensor. Get the manual .PDF on-line, but basically you’ll need to twist off the cap on the sensor and replace it with a 2032 battery. THEN you’ll need to reset the sensor code (sensor to head unit). It is in the manual towards the bottom of page 2.
To get the sensor cap off, use as big a screwdriver as you have, it works best.
