Thank you, Bryan and B-Mod, I will do both and report back later today.
Ok…. I have unexpected findings, at least they were unexpected to me.
I inspected the charge cord wire, the connection, flipped it over and inspected the underside. All look to be in good shape.
Then when I plugged it back in instead of staying dark now the light is flashing blue to green to half blue and green and red. I will attach pictures below.
Does this mean anything to anyone?
Sounds like it is failing to me.
Yeah… me too. While I would be glad to have the problem resolved, I’m hearing in this forum that replacements are taking a very long time.
In any event, I’ve updated the ticket with the latest photos. Thanks again for your insights.
I was just reading through your thread. After my gps issues, I am having similar problems that yiu are having on one of my Yarbos.
Fortunately my other Yarbo is working OK; have issues with spinning and phantom obstructions. This Yarbo I am using to blow manually after the other mows. Hopefully, a new core will be the solution as I have been waiting 23 days for the troubleshooting.
Hi there, sorry for the delayed response. I’ve checked your ticket and it has been escalated to our field service engineer for further investigation. We kindly ask for your patience while we get back to you.
Thank you. I sincerely appreciate your and their assistance.
Update. Just heard from Support. They have requested, and I have sent them videos showing the multicolor light sequence on the dock.
Update. Two days since last contact. No response to the videos requested by support.
One thing that having to manually manage the charging of my Yarbo has caused me to notice is the rate of discharge that occurs when it is sitting idle.
I unplugged it at 80% at 10pm last night. It is at 60% this morning. I didn’t have it do anything during the night in the hopes that would be best for any diagnosis support might want to do. Is a 20% drop overnight to be expected?
Notice: this post is intended to be lighthearted and dare I say, maybe even a little humorous. I feel compelled to post this notice because although I think I am hilarious, my family has frequently informed me that I am gravely mistaken. I’ve noticed this tends to be the fate of us “dad’s” of certain age.
That being said…
I’ve always believed that when stress and frustration are building, laughter often really is the best medicine.
So…
I’ve decided to turn to superstition to help me with my current quandary. I remember as a child my dad used to joke that whenever we really needed rain, he would wash his car. So, in that spirit, I’ve decided to install the BBM and trimmer on my Yarbo. Whenever I’ve taken the step in the past, my core got replaced shortly thereafter. I don’t know if a core replacement is what’s needed in this case, but I don’t really have a superstitious ritual to apply around getting the dock replaced.
Perhaps if this fails, I will dance around the fire by a full moon, swinging a rubber chicken around my head.
For those of you familiar with campfire rituals of children in previous generations, I will also chant “OH WA TA GU SIAM” over and over, increasing my tempo as I go until realizing that it is really myself that I am making fun of.
I think it’s about 1-2% per hour
You will still need a tin-foil hat (aluminum foil), a few flying monkeys from Kansas and a bloody hook from the local pirate lore ..
I am not above doing any and all of those things.
Despite what your family says, I enjoyed the read and think you quite funny 
A younger drunken version of myself was called up on stage at a theme park and was guided through this ritual in front ~200 people. Apparently I was the only one not in on the joke.
I am going to screenshot your comment cobradunn and show my family with pride that I am NOT alone!
Yikes! Mine was a far more gentle indoctrination I was a nine-year-old at summer camp that was duped along side all my cabin mates.
Permission granted.
Lest anyone doubt the mystical powers of the BBM and Trimmer installation, within just a few hours of that installation, after 5 “beached whale” line feed error rituals, I have been summoned by the high priests of Yarbonia to place the sacrificial core on the dock alter and await additional visions and insights….
All hail the magic trimmer.
Works every time!
