    I’m not sure of the make/model of my desk but it was stuck all the way up, I held the up and down buttons together and the desk finally started lowering, once it got all the way down I noticed that it adjusted itself, left side was a bit higher than the right side which caused the stuck position. Thanks for the help

    OMG. Thank you so much for this info. My desk had been uneven for 5+ years. Here I was accepting the fact that the left leg motor was broken and time to buy a new one. So, I tried to long hold the buttons to see if my desk has a reset and Voila! The desk started to go up a little and did it's thing to reset the leg heights. Crazy, right? I am forever grateful.

    !!!Hi5 DESK OWNERS, read my comment for your solution!!!
    I have a Hi5 adjustable height desk, and the solution to my problem was not in this video. However I could find the manual and it said:
    "Keep pressing "S" until the display shows "FAC" then press "S" again to confirm to store the control system to factory setting. "
    THIS WORKED FOR ME. I could not lower my desk until a certain point, but this is how factory reset works on Hi5 desks. I had to set my presets again, but it wasn't much of a deal. Hope my comment helps.

    For me this was all cable management! I have an uplift desk and Just the slight tugging of the cord into the control box was enough to make the control box think there was a collision.
    Symptoms: The desk would be on its way up and then would stop, reverse direction and come back down an inch or so...
    Fastened the cords snug to the desk with included velcro hooks and no more issues! GL

    It looks like mine cycled out and now is stuck on the error E10, and I can't figure out how to get it out. I would not get a standing desk from inbox zero. You can't find the parts and their is no website to contact to help dispute stuff.

    I've spent 2 hours troubleshooting my 3 leg, L-Shaped desk (one leg won't go down during reset, but other 2 have, and now it's way out of whack).
    Ive reset it, at least a dozen times. I've also tried to swap around the legs cords that connect to main box... and nothing.
    Any advice?

      What brand is it and did you try plugging the motor into control where a working motor was plugged? If it moves a little then stops it’s most likely the motor is not talking to the controller.

    Hi, Yesterday a cord got caught when my desk was lifting. Today it wouldn't turn on. I wiggled things around and eventually it turned on. The desk now turns on but when I press the arrows / numbers / M nothing happens. I already un/plugged back in but the number and height don't change. It is stuck in the high position. Suggestions?
    BRAND: SHW Electric Height Adjustable Mobile Rolling Standing Desk Workstation
    TRIED:
    1- Plugged / unplugged for 30 seconds
    2- Reset: up/ down arrow held for 30 seconds over and over
    3- Held M button for a long period of time to try different reset
    4- Tried different buttons
    5- Has the same items it always has, and it is at the highest position not going down so it can't be heavy items
    6- Rechecked cords but it is staying on (so it doesn't seem like it's loose) it just doesn't respond to button presses.
    Help?

It was hiding so well since I had a professional put the desk together that I had no clue where to plugin the male part.

      I got it sorted now. So just try this ..get the table upside down and then try to pull the shaft rod out by putting pressure on the motor side of the table. Now when the rod is out . Manually adjust the uneven lengths. You should be able to with no much energy as well. Then fix the rod back such that the the shaft on the non motor side is well inserted and fixed deep inside. In my case this was the issue and then you’re good to turn the table back . Let me know if this helps
