Can't reset G3 controller, what am I doing wrong?

[larryk5]

I have my controller 2 acting up! Channels stop working, several of them, so I thought I would reset the controller!

 

It won't reset! I followed the manual; turn off unit, move jumper to pins 5/6, power unit up, fast flashing light, power down controller, move jumper back to 4/5, power up, get solid green! At least that's what I think is the correct way.

 

in the HU I would expect the controller to show up as unit one, that what the manual states. It finds the controller, but it's still unit id 2!

 

Question; when then the jumper is on pins 5/6 and flashing red fast, do I just unplug the controller or should something else happen. I left in flashing for about 20 seconds.

 

Thanks

Resetting no longer clears the unit ID.

 

If the light is flashing fast, the reset is complete.  Unplug the unit and return the jumper to the correct position.

I did that but the HU still is showing it as controller id 2.

 

Also; I don't know how fast it should do the fast flashing thing. It does it as soon as I plug it in.

Can the controller still be connected to the PC when I do the reset?

 

Sorry Mike didn't read your post correctly, it DOESN"T change the id! That's good!
