All 2.0 BSs have round glass in front, while 1.0 has flat glass. Identify which revision of the Base Station 2.0 you have. That way, you can combine two broken base stations into one working one. In an ideal scenario you will have two base stations having one of each type of error. Immediately fast red blinking light and no sound of the motor - it means that either one of the circuits is dead or the motor. Slow red blinking light means the laser in the base station has failed. I have seen two different cases of failure:Īt first light is green, you can hear motors starting to spin, but a few seconds later - red light. Unplug power from the base station, wait five seconds and plug it back.

That is why I keep two spare base stations around.īut what if you are out of luck and the warranty has expired? Time to take matters in your own hands! First identify the issue. Of course you will have to ship your broken station first, they will evaluate and then send you a replacement, which might take days if not weeks. If you still have the base station under warranty, no need to panic, this can happen, you just contact Valve/HTC support (depending where you bought it from) and they will offer you a replacement. You peek at a base station and see a blinking red light. You check SteamVR and see that one of the base stations is not tracking. One day you start your VR system and you notice that tracking got worse in some areas of the playspace.
