I just got mine today. I start it on the highest speed setting and within 2-3 minutes the swing has stopped moving. Do I have a defective swing?

Yes. Mine constantly swings til I turn it off. Try to put it on the other speeds first the turn it on a faster one. If you get in an in between spot on the speeds it could stop. I have had similar problems with a full size swing I bought somewhere else.

Ours performed similarly. We found that you had to squeeze the poles together for the motor to have enough power to run, so we returned it.

It sounds as though your ball is not seated properly or the connection is not tight enough. I have had this model for nearly a year with no stability issue at all. My husband has used the same type for nearly three years and his is still very stable. Mine did come loose one time and I had trouble getting back on securely. Once I got it to 'snap' in place it has remained tight and moves only when I move it myself. If this is a new purchase I would suggest contacting the seller for replacement.

Looks like you have a defective unit. I would return and upgrade to a nicer unicycle, because this one is not very well made.

I had same problem. I was using a 4000psi and it was like a flying saucer! Anyway it stopped spinning and I threw it on the bench and took apart bottom plastic bearing, cleaned it up a bit and tighten back up where it would spin freely by hand. it's kind of adjustable and it worked good again. Not that high of quality.

Make sure you have it on the track correctly. If that doesn't do it I wish I could help you....mine actually stopped working all together and could not be returned. Haven't replaced it yet....not sure I'm going to either.

I had a similar problem with a new mower. Try pushing the start button in and holding it in until, hopefully, the blade moves.

Same thing happened to me. If you wind it to much it will start making a clicking sound and you can break it. All I did to fix it was push the little leaver that holds the bb's from comming out until it unwinds completely because the crank isn't cycleing correctly. I did it a bout two or three times and it's working good now.

Hi Harold - there must be a defect then. I set mine for 345 and it stops at that - it will fluctuate a few degrees down when in use - but nothing major. I would contact them and have it replaced

Sounds defective. Ours worked get for a couple years, then had trouble moving, buy then my son had out grown it.

Do you hear the motor speed drop as well? And are you running the hot air rework at the same time. It did it to me the other night I had the iron, rework wand, and the smoke absorber on all at the same time. And when the heating element kicked in my air would drop. Then come back when the iron turned off, then start again when the iron needed to heat. Did you remove the red plug from the bottom? And if that fails crack it open and see if any lines are loose, or cracked. If all else fails write me back and I'll help ya more if I can.-patrick

No I have not had that problem. I had a issue on another starter not from Amazon it was from a local part store. Had a bur on it which didn't allow the gear to spin freely .Id bench test it and see if there is a rough spot on the shaft. It might be just stuck,a little oil might free it up. Sorry you have a issue with your new starter..Hope this info helps.

I have been shooting mine with a 1100 fps pellet gun. It makes a noise and swings some, but doesn't make it swing up all the way requiring a shot to reset.

I wish I could help you. I was happy at first bit since it hasn't worked properly.. It keeps going red like there is something bad in air but it won't stop. I have gone to several shops to help but no one knows how to fix it. I have since been looking for a new one.

Since my son has hit the 12 pound mark, it seems the swing does not function reliably. It worked fine up until about 10 lbs, then started to have problems keeping up with the highest speed setting. Now he is 12 lbs, the highest speed never works. We can only keep the swing on the lower 2 settings and it still wont swing sometimes. The motor clicks and clacks now that he is heavier. However, it was wonderful when he was smaller! Too bad he has outgrown it so fast!Also, when playing music with the mobile on, the mobile seems to slow down the music, as if its draining the battery.

I was told the swing would "fool" it and if you set it in the swing alone it will still blink as if it were on the baby. I have had it go off, however, while my daughter was in the swing. I think it had come loose, but the alarm definitely sounded and the swing was still in motion. I still used it everytime my daughter was in the swing.

Mine is the same way. My husband said that that was the way they have always been. I don't remember mine but it is an odd thing. I told him that it should land on an animal and say what that animal is and it's sound, not do it afterwards. So perhaps mine isn't broken, it's just Fisher Price's backwards thinking!
