6. Troubleshooting
This section provides an approach to establishing the cause of common malfunctions. If the problem cannot be
resolved, please contact YSI Technical Support.
The rQPOD isn't turning on.
Solution: Check batteries, magnetic arm switch, and fuses. Fuses are located inside the battery chamber and can
be removed using a long screwdriver. Replace with 20 A fuse if the fuse is blown. If it blows again, contact YSI. Fuse
locations are indicated in orange on the diagram below.
The rQPOD does not steer straight.
Solution: First check that there is no debris in thrusters, especially in the rear cone of the thruster. This will require the
removal of the assembly. If that is all clear, check that the trim switches are all set to zero on the transmitter. If it still
doesn't steer straight and no wind or currents are affecting the Torrent board, then the sub trim can be adjusted on the
transmitter.

NOTE: A copy of the Transmitter manual is included within the shipment.
NOTE: It is best to adjust the sub trim out of the water just after it has been submerged to ensure the
bearings are lubricated. Do not run the thrusters excessively in the air.
