“REMOTE CONTROL”
Why does the remote control no longer command the taillight?
There are few reasons:
1. Remote Control cannot command Taillight when it is being charged. Unplug the charging cable from Taillight.
2. Taillight may be running out of battery, recharge Taillight for at least 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Remote Control battery needs replacement. Press any button on Remote Control, and see if the blue LED command and battery indicator is on or off. If it is off, Remote Control battery needs to be replaced. Use a small flat screw driver to pop open the plastic casing. Install a new 12V/27A alkaline battery. Press the top and bottom shells together until they snap together.
4. If it is none of the above. You will need to go through a “recode” process to pair Taillight and remote control. Make sure Taillight is sufficiently charged and the Remote Control’s battery is good. Press the button on Taillight for 2 seconds, and Taillight will sound an alert. Press any key on Remote Control, and Taillight will sound an alert 2 times confirming the completion of pairing. If the issue persists, it is likely Remote Controller’s battery is low and needs to be replaced.
