I just bought one of these second hand for 100 including battery, charger and keys and receipt (1 year and 3 weeks old)

It isn't working but the previous owner didn't know why. Her wife has an identical bike and the battery powers that bike fine. And it read 41.9v after charging.

No power to led handlebar unit but she said it did come on sometimes but very intermittent and usually not

Bike is in very good condition otherwise.

I thought a trouble shooting and repair thread might be useful

Starting point shall be ensuring there is power to controller and cleaning up/bending battery contacts.

My intention is to repair and sell to help fund my mid drive purchase / conversion when woosh get the gsm in

Well, fix was good for me but very dull thread. Just one obviously broken through corrosion red wire on handle bar panel !
