Error Wheel blockage, check wheels

@yarbo-forum @marco Thanks for any help you can provide. I shared the video hoping helps you rule out wheel controller issue vs a mechanical issue. It’s part of the troubleshooting process. I appreciate the expedited case for your field service engineer for further investigation.

@Yarbo-Forum @ken.w.gregory @bryan.wheeler @marco Can anyone else please see if they can view My Google Drive file. 4 days later I get an email just now saying they couldn’t see it? It’s open to anyone with a link. I just checked it. :wink: Please and thanks.

I could not access it before. I’ll try again.

I just tried and I can see it now.

Sounds awful…

Thanks. This is what they’re thinking.”Meanwhile, as your issue appears to be related to a walking motor failure, we are unable to troubleshoot it remotely. Once we run a walking motor test, your Yarbo might move unexpectedly and could potentially collide with surrounding objects.” Yet I recorded both times, when I was running it. They saw nothing. Now That may have changed?:thinking:

I just watched it. That’s sure seems like a mechanical issue, and probably not field serviceable.

@Yarbo-Forum @ken.w.gregory @bryan.wheeler Bryan said I may need a new core. Still puzzled. “We’re unable to troubleshoot remotely. But Once we run a walking motor test, it may move unexpectedly?”:thinking:

I hope they do something. This will be my 3rd core. 4 days, still waiting. Grass keeps growing. We’ve had over 2” of rain in the last two days. If they do send a new one 7-10 days minimum at best. If we take this into the weekend, even longer. It took 4 days to get a reply back.:expressionless_face:

Funny thing is. They said they already did get it. Moved it up the ladder.:thinking:

Looks like it went from R&D to mechanical.

Maybe Scottie has it. Oh no wait, that was engineering.

Have you heard of other gearbox failures like this one? I haven’t read of others.

Hold my beer…

In the start of May 2025. That was my core nr 2. Replaced by Yarbo because of the gearbox failure
