I have an incite 8i wireless computer that stopped registering in the middle of a ride. The battery is 1 week old so it's not that. If I remove the computer from the cradle (mounted on handle bar next to stem) it will register input from the sensor. I tried moving the cradle to another location that received input from the sensor when out of the cradle, but same problem. Any ideas?

I had issues with my 9i, I had to move the cradle and computer down much closer to the sensor. It worked for a hot minute on the handlebars and then quit. This is quite disappointing for a 70 dollar computer.

Just try to move it closer, or put the sensor on the front wheel.

I tried locating it almost next to the sensor, already on the front wheel. It registers fine until i put it in the cradle. This has been working fine for 2 years, just recently went crazy.
