# Pudu BellaBot "Positioning failure on BellaBot Pro": what it means and the fix

Steps **5**

Tools **None**

Parts None

Works for Pudu BellaBot (BL100, BL101, BL110) and BellaBot Pro delivery robots.

Short answer
**What it means:** The BellaBot Pro cannot recognize its positioning features, so it does not know where it is.

**Quick fix:** Select the map that matches the current site.

## Fix it in 5 steps

- Select the map that matches the current site. Done?
- Push the robot directly under its boot point and turn it to face the right way. Done?
- Tap reposition. The screen asks you to make sure the robot is parked in the booting area and facing the right direction. Done?
- Clean the vision sensor if oil or dirt is blocking it. Done?
- Check that the vision sensor fill light is red. Did it work?

**Fixed when:** The robot finds its position.

Great, it is fixed. Bookmark this page in case it comes back.
