Yes I ended up buying a new controller & display. All working now including all the pas sensors I'd bought so the other controller must be faulty

Many thanks! I've tried this and got no drive at all doing either test

Ok so I swapped the red & blue cable over today, ONE of my pas sensors now works and in the correct direction only, but pedals still have to be turning very fast before any drive is provided. I've messed with parameters and not managed to make any difference. I think this controller is just...

Unless the controller is wired incorrectly internally, I've 100% connected the PAS to the correct connector. See pic below. This being said, the manual shows the PAS connector (the female connector, left in pic) being wired as; red= +5v, black= ground (0v), and blue= signal. I've tested at the...

It's definitely connected correctly, I've read the manual

Hi all, Having a nightmare getting PAS to work properly with a Brainpower controller. I've tried a 12 magnet type which works however drive is activated whether pedalling forwards or backwards, regardless of which way the disc or pickup is orientated. I've since tried an 8 magnet with the same...

Many thanks, really appreciate the info. I think the motor has a built in speed sensor? So as well as the three phase cables, there are 6 other cables coming from the motor... hall sensors- yellow, green & blue, and as you've mentioned, red, black and white. This tallies up with the Brainpower...

Ah I realise I've explained poorly! When set to 1, the speedometer does read when coasting but it shows far too fast. Setting P07 to 2, 3 or 4 doesn't seem to make any difference to that inaccuracy, but I do still get a readout when coasting. Setting to 5+ I get no reading when coasting

Ah thank you, that makes sense re the speed sensor magnets. Assuming this only has one, but I guess I can test that if can find a wiring diagram for the motor?

Interesting. I know a few people with e-bikes now and have never heard the term Pedelec. Usually it's ebike, eeb or digital bike

Hi all, currently renovating a Swifty foldable ebike which came to me with a dead controller amongst other issues. I've replaced the controller with a Brainpower unit and S866 display. I've just about got it working but having a nightmare with the speedometer readout. The speed is displayed...

Hi all! Jokey title aside, I own 4 e-bikes already, three off the shelf and one conversion. Currently getting more into the conversion/custom built side of things. Hoping to learn a thing or two here and hopefully help others out at some point. Cheers!
