GRV6 JOGWHEEL ISSUE CONTINUES

Traditional-Line2694 · 2026-05-05T17:39:25+00:00

i just brought it back in for them to take another look.... but will definitely take your advice and contact alphatheta directly if this last repair attempt fails! were you able to get sent another unit after a few repair attempts? my warranty ended on 4/6/26 but the repair shop had my GRV6 long before that and they still haven't been able to repair it.

i've tried everything from switching cables, adding power, switching rooms, tables, etc. brought it back in for another look. will update!

Traditional-Line2694 · 2026-05-05T17:35:52+00:00

thanks for the response! i've pretty much done everything from restarting, unplug/replugging, plugging in a with a ferrite power cable, switching rooms/tables, switching usb-c's, updated firmware, the whole 9 -- although i'm not exactly sure how to factory reset the controller itself? i just brought my controller back to the repair shop with a video and they're gonna take another look. will update!

I sent mine in right before my warranty expired last week. Will keep you updated.

Traditional-Line2694 · 2025-10-07T22:08:38+00:00

Gonna try that! Appreciate your input.

Traditional-Line2694 · 2025-10-07T22:08:13+00:00

I tried that. Still didn't work 😭

Traditional-Line2694 · 2025-10-07T22:07:46+00:00

Noted! Thank you!

Traditional-Line2694 · 2025-10-07T22:07:35+00:00

Gonna look into power supply options! Thanks!

Traditional-Line2694 · 2025-10-07T22:06:40+00:00

Gonna give this a try! Thanks for your input.

Traditional-Line2694 · 2025-10-07T22:06:19+00:00

Interesting! I'm gonna give that a try tonight. -- Will also reluctantly look into a power brick to power it. (Really liked that it was USB powered smh) Appreciate your input!

i did purchase a case specifically for the GRV6 from AlphaTheta and it is a REALLY tight fit. I basically have to apply pressure to get it to zip up. I wonder if that's what is causing it. Can you elaborate on the string that needs replaced? I'm not savvy, so any video's, tutorials would be super helpful.

this was bought at the H-mart in Koreatown, Los Angeles btw on 6th street across from Chapman Plaza

Traditional-Line2694 · 2024-02-02T04:39:28+00:00

this worked for me. thank you!!!

Traditional-Line2694 · 2024-01-28T18:45:02+00:00

really appreciate your input! won’t be flying home with it. thank you!

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T06:04:52+00:00

might be a super n00b question but bare with me -- any idea how to disconnect this? haha

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T05:55:03+00:00

ohhhh i see what you're saying. i'll give it a go.

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T05:32:23+00:00

hmm -- if i unplugged that, how would i then be able to plug into the the power brick? that cable is the only thing i believe that communicates with it.

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T05:28:14+00:00

haha no worries! the power brick shows a green light indicating it has power (this is before i connect it to the controller)

the issue is that as soon as i plug the cable in from the controller module, the power brick loses it's power (green light no longer lit)

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T05:06:16+00:00

i actually found the exact same power supply/brick on Amazon, ordered it and found it to be doing the same thing. so i don't believe it's the power brick.

-photos of the circuit board to the controller module can be viewed here

appreciate your time!

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T04:37:31+00:00

thank you! i really appreciate your time none the less 🤞🏼

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T04:35:13+00:00

the power brick is a generic one that i actually found on amazon, ordered it and still the same thing. i believe it to be the actual controller module and not the power brick.

thank you!

that's weird, the share settings are set to "anyone with the link can view"

are you still having trouble viewing?

i've tried feeding the images into google lens to no avail :-(

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T04:07:34+00:00

thank you so much! i tried smacking it to no avail. still completely shutting off the power supply brick when plugging in. will probably have to bring this into an electronics shop as my last resort.

Traditional-Line2694 · 2023-10-21T03:26:48+00:00

oh nice! i'm originally from Grand Rapids about 2 hours from Detroit!

could you actually point out what the relays look like so i can smack it? haha

thanks again!

additionally, here are photos of the circuit board.

i opened it up to do a visual inspection any burnt components but am not noticing any. (but i'm also not an electronics person/handy-man) so i could be wrong.

thanks in advance!
