OMG THAT REALLY WORKS!!! Before I actually tried it I had a long pause and asked myself: "what if after lower the table to lowest and they still cannot move back up, then the table is gonna be not useable at all, should I take the risk?" And I decide to take a risk, thank you so much!

DUDE! Thank you for being there with this! I tried swapping out all of the cables on the broken desk with the cables from a second working BEKANT and it didn't help. I was so afraid we were going to have to go through a lengthy IKEA warranty claim to get the motors replaced. But this trick TOTALLY FIXED IT! It went down SOOO SLOWLY making bad and worrying noises, then when it got to the bottom, both sides didn't hit at the same time. So I think maybe the two legs somehow got out of alignment. Once it went all the way down, it now goes up and down with no difficulty, like it realigned itself. If you are a person who is currently looking through these comments to decide if you're willing to risk pushing your desk all the way to the bottom out of fear that it won't come back up, count this comment as another vote for THIS WORKED FOR ME! 😀

This was a miracle. I was so worried that my table will get stuck at the bottom. I read other comments, I noticed that everyone is thanking you... Your comments, your videos looked very legit and that's why I took a chance. Thank you it worked as you explained. I was not able to use this table for last Two years. Ikea even asked me to bring the table to the store. It is really ridiculous that ikea cannot provide good support on such expensive products. Anyways thank you for your short and to the point video.

We have a different problem - the desk goes down at a different speed on each side, so every time we move it, it slightly tilts to the left. Moving the desk all the way up and down only makes it worse, and this reset procedure helps - after the reset, we send it all the way down and the differences level off - then we can start using it again. Thank you!

I tried what you said, but it didn't work. But it worked for me at the end by first unplugging it from the power, then doing what you said. Thank you for sharing this info.

Thanks! Ours wasn’t moving up, and when we did the 10s reset it did move down all the way... Had to do the reset twice before it worked. Happy! Thanks for the help

VERY helpful. Thanks 🙏 I've had this issue with several of our Bekants in the office, and IKEA has only provided the first part of the procedure as a remedy - Hold both buttons for 10 second. It was the last part that finally got it working again!!!

I love you SO MUCH! I was panicking and going through all the cables thinking something must've disconnected, you really saved me a lot of trouble. I'm so glad your video came up. I was just about ready to cry haha. Lifesaver!!!

Awesome, it worked! Thank you so much! I was already wiring a special RJ45 cable with the serial pins connected to try to debug the "won't move up" problem, as it smelled like software issue (the Rodulf desk's ROL 68009090 unit has the pin names printed on the PCB and there seems to be RX, TX, RST, 5V too, in addition to UP, DN and GND that go to the button panel). But now I can actually move on and take the desk into use, thanks to you!

It worked for my Rodulf too! It would only go down, not up. It went all the way down when I pressed both buttons and it seems like the sides weren't aligned, because they didn't get to the bottom at the same time. I was so scared, thank you.

Worked for me thanks! I then realise that manual reset is actually documented in the instructions (it says to press for 8 sec)

Thank you so much for this!! I had the same problem (no more up movement, still down movement) and this fixed it! I wish I'd looked up your video before I just spent 20 minutes curled under my desk trying to remove and remount my PC to change a hard drive, but... next time!
