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
Had trouble with mine - had to replace the shifter in the end and relieve my back account of £150.
Bank !

Id be interested in getting a few pins please. I’ve managed to get my AXS mech working again using a contact cleaner spray, but need a more long term solution.

Three things need to happen;
1. You need to work out how to PM me your address, good luck with that.
2. I need to work out how to read your PM...
3. I need to find the bag of pins.
Lol!
Ive tried to do no 1 (or I may have messaged myself - who knows!), and there may be a message sent to you.
I have received an email that shows the content of the message, so we're good to go.

Thanks - it looks like there are now two messaging method (not linked to each other) - one from letter icon by a persons userame to the LHS of a post, the other from your account dropdown menu. I used the letter icon by tour posts username - who knows why theres two!!!
i rode this evening. All's working fine for now. Thanks for the help.
Think Mark has posted on the new forum thread that there are 2 DM systems just now but soon there will be 1. They have 2 running as one is used in classifieds and rather than kill it now and kill potential slaves they have a grace period to allow sales to be done.
The intention is to only have 1 DM system soon (but not time.scale.that I'm aware of).
