Tacx Flow Smart Stays at 0MPH

I was using my Tacx with Zwift but stopped cos my front wheel slipped. Adjusted the block but then it wouldn’t accelerate again? Tried to re-calibrate with the Tacx Training app. It connects and light is flashing green, but when I pedal, MPH doesn’t move?

Thanks, I’ll give it a try. There is resistance but I did notice a slight gap in the casing?

It wasn’t that. Duff product.

I also have a problem where I lose resistance. It tends to occur 20-30 min after spinning. The advice following the link above does not apply to my problem either. Help!!!

how much "watt" do you produce during these 20-30mins? (if you are a heavy rider and easily ride with 250"flow-watts" or more, then it is not your trainer because overheating, it is a known problem with Flow, especially in ERG mode with low wheel speed, so with small ring front and an easy cog rear. the inner fan is working more effectively with higher wheel speed, but ofc the trainer is getting much more noiser in this case...)

Thanks for responding. I averaged 116 watt but steadily increased to 216 watt.
So is there any way to fix this, or will the drop in resistance and automatic pause continue to occur?
best, JS

try to cool the unit with a fan placed close , sometimes it helps to stay below the critical inner temperature.

Btw, did you train with tacx videos and was it a hill climb where your unit shutted down?
