Hey, as of a couple days ago, after over a year of no issues, I am getting wild power fluctuations when in erg mode, and the interval is steady. I am using the mobile app, on iOS. This isn’t with short intervals, and I haven’t had issues with them in the past regardless. It’ll be a 3-5min interval, at say 225w, and it’ll hold at 225 for a second or two, then drop to 160, then ramp up, hold and drop again. Its not a couple watts, its 50 or so. This happens at higher power, and lower power, as well.
I experimented with power smoothing on/off, redownloaded the wahoo app (using a kickr V5) and updated firmware, power smoothing on/off on the kickr itself, all the things I could think of. Turn off the kickr and reconnect, disconnect reconnect….
I did download mywhoosh or whatever, and it held power steady, so I don’t think its my kickr.
Oh I think I responded to your email. What I can see looking at your last workout is is that it seems as though your trainer is not being controlled at all. I would make sure your kickr is not paired directly to your phone (android/ios phone settings, forget). Maybe phone restart, maybe app reinstall. No one else with V5 or similar has reported such an issue. Only V1 users with a problem but V1 and V5 are totally different. We did not change our app recently so something randomly occured.
So, if I am trying to track with my garmin, and also use trainerday on my phone (iOS), what should be connected and where?
I reached out to wahoo, and he had me forget the trainer from everything, then just connect to wahoo, then forget and try on trainerday again. It worked real quick, then I went for a walk, came back and it was back to not working. I tried a manual erg workout from the wahoo app, and that worked. Very odd that it just started happening.
