Why Does My FlexiSpot E7 Stop or Reverse While Moving?

Exact model: FlexiSpot E7

Safety: Disconnect the relevant power source and isolate moving, hot or pressurized components before service.

A.

Start with the accessible checks

What this suggests: An E7 abruptly stopping and reversing may have anti-collision protection triggered by a shelf, cable or overly sensitive configuration, or a mechanically binding leg.

What to do

  1. Move the desk with all shelves, chair arms and cable bundles cleared from its full travel envelope.
  2. Check both columns for parallel alignment and mounts for looseness; remove items rubbing against the underside.

Still not fixed? Continue to the next check.

B.

If the problem remains after the first checks

What to do

  1. If the handset supports adjustable collision sensitivity, choose the documented setting rather than disabling protection completely.
  2. A persistent reversal on one side or unequal travel warrants the E07/E08 M1/M2 motor/column checks.

Confirm the repair

Desk moves through its normal range, stops when genuinely obstructed and does not reverse on clear travel.
