Totally For Sure It’s Fixed This Time

Friday, September 12th, 2008

Sound Speed Scooters didn’t call me yesterday eve like they said they would.  I took that as a pretty bad sign.

I just got off the phone with the scooter-mechanic, who claims that they think they have the problem solved now, that it was a bad controller / lithium communication channel.  He says they replaced the controller, and drove the scooter thru a full charge yesterday, without any issues.  They are going to do another full run again today, and hopefully have my bike ready tonight.

Because they’re going out of town for the weekend, so if it’s not tonight, it’s next week (he said monday, but they aren’t usually open on mondays, so…?).  Yeah, go take off for a weekend, leave me stuck, again, while we finally get some sunny weather.

schmucks.

Another Day of Waiting

The scooter manufacturer’s rep is supposed to be back down at Sound Speed today, since they couldn’t repro the problem for him on tuesday.  I wish I could hold out a hope that I’d have a working scooter by the weekend, but I so doubt that the problem is going to be as easy to fix as they think.
