Good morning all, my bikes lights have stopped working and I suspect this little box as the problem, ideally I like to replace it with the same but not sure what is or where to get a replacement? As the light says 24-48v I presume it's just a relay thingy rather than a voltage dropper. Any help...

Hi...again, well it lasted for a while before problems started again. I now have an intermittent fault that the display says is hall sensor. I guess that the whole wiring will need to be gone through to possibly find a bad wire some where, although before I begin that horrible job I thought I...

Success... Well with help from forum members-Thank-you, It is back on the road. I got the replacement hall sensors (cheers Steve) although I didn't feel confident enough to do the micro surgery soldering. Whilst it took a couple if weeks to find someone who could and eventually did-it was...

Thank-you for the in depth reply, I'm building with confidence already. I was hoping to just cut and re solder the wires under the heat shrink rather than disturb the wires under the string or more importantly to me, desolder off the board. I don't have nor never used a desolder pump, my learn...

Thanks for that. I've just ordered some and now building up to take it apart again and have a go. I did try continuity testing from plug to sensors bit it gave me unexpected results so gave up on that idea. I hope it's a sensor and not a controller, it wouldn't be so bad if I could just buy of...

OK thank-you.

Well it didn't go too well. I managed to get down to the nitty gritty of the motor but when I got there I came to the conclusion that my fingers were to big and my eyes too old to try to replace the hall sensor. So I put it back together after giving it abit of a clean and grease. Well it's...

Sound like a right headache but unlike me it also sounds like ya know what your doing. I've taken planet gears off and key out, there is another keyed sprocket behind it Haven't quite built up the courage to pull the last bit that side to expose the hall sensors. Then I'm guessing the other...

With a tip of the hat-Thankyou. I hope you can continue to lead me down this dark alley.. Grease. Will do thank-you. I managed to find a puller, in the loft...last box as usual, I knew I'd got one somewhere. I guess to remove the planet gears... I've removed the circlip and 3 bronze washers...

Yes definitely damp in there, a couple of the bolts were probably only held in by the oxidisation, I shall put a sliver of grease or silicone when I put the outer cover back on. A bit of grease still remains around but not on the gears. When /if I fix/rebuild it-what grease should I use , I was...

I removed the sprocket and bearings although not sure if that was necessary at that stage. Undone 6 screws for hub and gave a few taps with hammer and wood, no movement so I left it overnight to soak in. Went and gave it a few taps this morning and hey presto Do I need to remove the sprocket...

Is yours anything like mine in the photo below and if so any tips you could offer a first time fixer would be gratefully received please ? Warm regards Mark

Sounds like your where I wish I was. I ain't even got it apart yet and problems....oh the fun if it all.

I managed to take the wheel out and the six screws undone, the plate is still tight but it looks like I need to remove the sprocket set to get at the spindle nut. The sprocket is a shimano mc but I don't have a tool to remove them. I did undo the ring on the sprocket but did it back up before I...

Just back in from the workshop, just crossed wires to confirm the controller is ok-more useful snippets from someone with a similar problem to me on this site. So it looks like the next 5 minutes I get I'll be taking the wheel out for a look. Having just been looking at the wheel there seems...
