7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your GD02 display, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

    • Ensure the wheel size setting (if configurable via the controller) is correct for your bicycle.
    • Check the speed sensor and its magnet for proper alignment and function.
  • Buttons Not Responding:
    • Ensure the display is powered on.
    • Gently clean around the buttons to remove any dirt or debris.
    • If the issue persists, a loose internal connection or component failure may be present.
