Test the lights and fans

- Fail: The fans come on but the lights don’t.
- Enter the pod and lock the door behind you.
- Pass: The lights and fans stay on while you’re in the pod.
- Fail: The lights turn off at any point while you’re in the pod.

If your pod passes these tests, that’s great news! If it doesn’t, we may need to replace the wire harness. Please reach out to our Service team to request this service. Here are instructions on how to change it out when the part arrives.
