Carrera Issues

Recommended Posts

I bought the Carrera Porsche/ McLaren set on Sunday. Also the pitstop, 2x extra cars and two controllers.

Having had the computer burn out on me, I got a replacement unit and last night tried to get it to go.

Both of the set cars don't want to be programmed to a controller, the extra cars eventually felt like working, but only on controller in position 1 and in position 3.

When I try to program the other two cars, one has no response at all, the other works now and again (seems a connector isn't working properly).

when I use one of the controllers in position one, it drives 1-3 cars at once.

I am pretty frustrated with the system at the moment..

Other than taking the set cars back, any ideas?

Hi Helrayzer

I goofed my self once and hooked up my power taps the wrong way round and smoked the black.

I would do that process of elimination thing, pull the black box from the track and then put power to It and see if the cars work and so on eventually you will find the fault dont give up its a great system

Hello Helrayzer, please check out these videos to make sure that you're attempting the program function correctly. You need to have a slow button click to program the cars.
