So I have AXS on both my bikes. It the GX version not type T.
whilst riding tonight the mech stopped shifting. I removed and refitted the battery and all good. The app showing good battery life. As soon as I ride anything rough it disconnects. Release give it a wiggle and alls good again( stop and repeat,)
I presume the connection are an issue so what can you clean them with ?
if it’s not that, do the mounts become worn ?
is it new battery time?
Are the pogo pins sticking out and pogoing?
Either pogo pins or battery. I had that issue, changed pins. But it was the battery
On mine, I had to brush out the pocket that the battery sits in. I think there was some dirt or debris at the front, which (I think) meant that the battery was pushed a little out of position and not reliably in contact with the two small contacts. After cleaning it out with a dry brush, it’s been fine since. Not easy to find a brush which fits in there though.
Thanks for the replies.
I did not know the pins on the mech move. I’ll take a look at that first and give the general area a clean. Isopropyl alcohol ok to use?
The pogo pins are a known weak point. SRAM's response is "Buy a new mech"... 🤬
The PCB they are mounted on should be a replaceable part but it's not.
If you can solder I have some pins you can have.

Thanks for your offer.
I intend to investigate after work tomorrow and will report back.
I’ve recently revived one with iso and a toothbrush
