My husband was ready to throw this game out the window instead of returning it because he was so upset...our poor 10 year-old son was so excited about the gift and then all of the effort it took to get the board to calibrate was ridiculous!! Researched online and lots of people said putting two older batteries into the board with two of the new ones helped. We did that and also had to move the couch into the hall and then it finally calibrated!! Oh, we also turned off the lights for some reason people said that helped as well. Don't give up! Keep trying everything but the two older batteries helped. Once it was calibrated we moved the couch back and it seems to work fine. So far it seems like a cool game.

I cant get shred board to calibrate with xbox 360 console

Two of batteries that came with the board where almost 1.6volts while the other two where1.52 volts I changed out the batteries that came with board and game with 4 used AA batteries. Then moved the board back about 5'9 inches and this worked. I believe it is due to a high DC battery Voltage that causes this problem. I retested this again useing the higher voltage and got the same errors. then changed back to correct voltage and the board calibrated right away. This solved my problem. I hope this helps you. Make sure you test your batteries with a multi meter to make sure they are around 1.2volts to 1.52volts any higher than this gave my kids board a calibration problem. good luck hope this helps.

How to set up tony hawk shred board. on the tv it says to connect the board, and the light on the board keeps blinking green

You need to connect the board to the XBOX before you can calibrate...press the Connect button on the main console (on my XBOX 360S it is directly to the left of port 1 for the game controller), then press and hold the tiny button far left on the board controller. That's as far as I got, it won't calibrate to save my life!

We got the board to sync to xbox, but we can't calibrate it. we turned the lights low, and we have nothing around it for 4 feet. what should we do?

Had the same problem. Do not use the batteries that come with the board. Use slightly older ones. After switching the batteries re- calibrate the board and it should work.
