Going to airport - but IU unit spoiled

[xevioso]

I'm going airport at midnight so technically parking would be free but my IU unit is faulty. Is there any way for me to park at airport without paying the parking charge for cars? (since from my understanding if my IU is faulty and I insert my cashcard into the barrier I will be deducted car charges)

 

Changing IU is not in my plans. The third IU I had broke down today, 3 IUs spoiled in half a year...Don't really want to bother changing it anymore...

 

Any suggestions? Or LL suck thumb?

At the airport no problem. If you ride a bike and insert cashcard, it will deduct bike charges.

Adding to what "epk" has said, stick to the right side of the barrier. The sensors beneath the road should detect that you are a motorcycle and then because it can't find your IU, it will then ask you to insert your cashcard into the machine.

 

Edit: The airport parking system also accepts EZ-Link cards as an alternative to cashcard.

 

P.S.: Don't lose your cashcard if you are doing this method of entering the carpark; it's your only way out.

Yup... Bike parking charges are per entry basis... Unlike car parking charges per hour basis...

yea lor. haiz. now just ride around as usual, siam all the gantries until i accidentally kena one (like with my previous IUs) then need to go IU inspection, change new IU, then let it spoil again...haha....

always check the glass fuse along the power inlet of the iu before going to get a brand new iu.

 

glass fuse will first give way, change out the glass fuse & you're good to go
