Yesterday Zwift stopped connecting to Bkool classic trainer. We have tried to connect with two different pc and two different ant+ dongle without succes. I have used bkool and Swift about half year. Today I installed bkool simulator and this sw found the trainer easely. So can there be a situation on the Zwift sw?
Did you use the ANT+ FE-C protocol from Bkool? It’s on the Bkool website. It worked in my case, I use a Bkool smart trainer.

Zwift worked fine half a year. Yesterday it didn’t connect to trainer any more and I don’t know why. I installed Zwift to another pc without success.

I had the same problem yesterday November 5th after having made an update of Zwift. Up to the update I haven’t had any problem to connect. I loaded on Appstore the App Bkool Toolkits, and it has updated directly my Bkool smart trainer. Now it works well and my home trainer can connect on Zwift.

Hi everyone,
I recently found a solution for those who own the Bkool Classic trainer (usb connector) and could not update to the latest firmware ( ANT+ FE-C) due to end of support. This way you can use Bkool Classic with Zwift.
It’s in Spanish, but you can use the translator.
Enjoy.

I’ve followed the instructions, getting the old installer to launch, but not getting the button to update. Anyone had this problem and got a solution?
Starting to think about purging my Bkool with fire.
Hi @Ollie_Wykeham, are you connecting to the Bkool sim via Ant+ or Bluetooth? (or is it a cable on the classic?) On the Bkool Pro trainer I think you need to connect to the Bkool Sim via Ant+ to get the button to enable FEC
