I keep getting a severe twist in the cable wh/ connects to the stack. Results in fraying and has to be replaced. Any answers to this problem?

I get that twist as well if there is not enough tension on the cable. I keep it tense to the point I have to push down on the weight stack to place the pin. With time the cable stretches a little and I do not have to push down on the stack. The twist stays out from then on. I made the tension increase at several points. I narrowed the space between the double pulley and shortened the chain and tighten the bolt on the stack.

Went though the same and still do at times. Reason is when I hook and unhook / change the equipment one will without knowing twist the cable. You can fix it by taking the weight pin out, pull down the cable a little and just twist it in which ever direction it needs to go to unsnarl or you can go to back of the machine and unhook which will do the same. Now if you are going to the back get someone to help you as it could be a safety issue (Not a serious one) without some help. I now just pay a attention that I do not twist the cable. Use of either method that I mentioned will correct the problem. Good Luck. Went though the same and still do at times.

We have this gym for not that long but didn't have that issue as you explained. It shouldn't be twisted if installed properly from what we know. Our cable is not twisted like you mentioned. Sorry for not being very helpful to you.

I too have been having this problem and I don't know what is causing it. I think BFM should get involved with a fix.

You an try and flip the item the other way around using ryw cables. I did not fully work for me.

I have not had too much of a tangling problem. I have noticed the last couple of times that it tangled a little bit. I had to untwist it and lay it out straight before I could roll it back up and pit it away. The last time I used it I layed it out flat again and stayed with it for a few minutes to make sure it was feeding out ok and not twisting at its longest run. good luck with it. Hope this helps.

It looks like they used some corrosive flux when soldering the ends. There was only white powder where the solder should be. I supposes the cable could be cut back and new ends put on. It appeared to be good quality cable.

Be very careful if you do this, the ribbon cable is ultra cheap. When I did mine, and I am an electronics tech, about a dozen wires broke, had to replace with hand soldered connections of individual wires. Wasn't a big deal, but I know what I'm doing, most people don't.

I believe I have found the answer. I suspected it was the weirdo USB cable it shipped with. I bought a new one, and it charges just fine. It's annoying that it uses a non-standard USB connector. My headphones are just fine now. Currently, i've positioned my charging cable so that it never really twists and turns, which is what I think caused the original problem. I think the internals of the cable just aren't very good.

Make sure the connector is completely locked onto the board on the inside. This happened to me and I just pushed down harder on the connectors.

Hi, I had this same problem and it was suggested I talk to CrazyOnDigital about getting replacements. I contacted their customer support through their Amazon storefront with my Order Number, explained what I was experiencing and they've told me they're sending me replacements. I haven't received them, yet, but I'm hopeful the new cables will work.

You can't easily replace the USB Cable, and I'm sure doing so would void the warranty. Why don't you simply tie up the extra cable with a zip tie or simple twist tie?

I have the same problem, I just keep running my thumb nail down the cord anf that seems to keep it from twisting excesslively and the minute I get a knot around the stick, I stop and fix it. It is the basic principle of physics...you keep turning and twisting it to play with your cat and the cord is going to keep twisting and winding up... no real solution...just keep on doing what you are doing.

You don't want to, the connectors fail quickly. I cut them off and throw them away. Twist connectors are better.

Maybe handshacking, may need new updated hdmi cables. Also the hdmi ports get loose from being on the side, had Samsung repair out to look at my ports and to fix them its 600 bucks. I just moved to a new port which pissed me off because I shouldn't have to pay for a bad design

I did strip down to copper wire, twisted, then put on wire nut/connector. If the copper does not meet and contact with the inside of the connector, connectivity does not happen.

I've never had this type of problem with this speaker cable. The only way you should experience this problem is if the wires touch each other or if they are on incorrect terminals. Check the resistance [there shouldn't be any]

Sounds like you either picked up the wrong cable, or you may be trying to plug it in upside down.

This model is my second guitar connect. The first model gave me similar results to what your experiencing. I contacted the company and their tech trouble shot with me in vain, and then sent me a new cable, promptly.

Make sure you dont have the cable connected the wrong way. It can be connected backwards. Switch the cable ends.
