Around 2 years ago my dad bought a used onewheel pint that had 1000 miles on it. Fast forward to 2023, I’ve added over 750 miles to the board. I recently changed the tire also. Along with the tire wear, the board would shutter and click when I would turn right. I went on a ride yesterday on some dirt paths and the thing was shuttering and rattling like crazy. With every rattle, the light bar on the front foot pad would turn on even close to full speed. Today, I go to ride, and the board will not safely level. The front of the board would touch the ground and the wheel would spin up, starting clicking and and violently shaking until I there was no pressure on the footpad. I turned it on and off, still did the same thing. Waited an hour to no avail. I tried tightening some of the screws but that didn’t help either. My guess is the controller is on its last legs, there’s something up with the front footpad, or there is a problem with the hall sensors. I have no idea what went wrong, so could I get some info from anyone who knows enough about onewheels to try and diagnose this issue?
