Are you sure you are putting it in the home potion at before you start? Make sure when you align you manually turn the scope counter clockwise until it stops and the turn it back (clockwise) until the arm of the fork is over the control panel (about ¼ turn). Your scope should be facing north while your control panel faces west.
