Wahoo Kickr 2017 stopped working with Zwift

A light bike doesn't replace good fitness.

Hey all,

Zwift is no longer communicating resistance with my Kickr since a software update last month.

The Kickr is working as expected with the wahoo app so it's not necessarily the trainer. :?

Has anyone else had this issue recently?

I've had problems with Zwift dropping my Tacx Vortex, in the past, when connecting through ANT+. I never experienced an issue connecting through Bluetooth, though. How are you connecting?

Connecting via Bluetooth. I had no issues at all during last winter with the same setup etc.

I had another go last night and still have issues. Spent an hour trying to get it working with Zwift.

Eventually, I found things started working if I turned Bluetooth off on my phone, closed all apps and put the phone on lock.

Hopefully, things will go a bit better next time.
