Gah! 9070 shifting issue
While cleaning my bike and fiddling with the rear derailleur adjustment, I somehow managed to switch the chain direction (i.e. the shifting paddles are now reversed). I did this without the computer interface (I don't own it), so it must have been a combination of holding both paddles or some other sequence that I did purely by accident.
Any ideas on how to switch them back? The online Shimano documents don't mention how to do it - only that you can do it using their etube software.

This is a mechanics forum. You need an electrician.
Sorry, couldn't resist. Hopefully someone familiar with programming these will come on with actual help.

Couldn't hurt to remove the battery for a few minutes to see if it will reset.

BTW- I hear that Shimano Di2 systems made since 2013 have GPS transponders built in allowing the Feds to track your movements.

Thanks all. I've figured it out: In the sober light of day, I think I may have had a minor stroke last night. Suffice it to say the "problem" was not some strange quirk of Japanese engineering, but my general fatigue and glass of wine (or three) with dinner.
