Stick at it, you'll get there in the end!

Sounds brilliant Jimo Yes it's shame about the weather but thats good old UK for you. Hats off to your lady wife, long may she keep at it, fantastic! :)

Well, it looks like I have indeed received the newer model and I must say I was thinking that it does appear to be quieter than others have commented and indeed posted videos of. If it is due better machining tolerances then that certainly is a positive improvement!

Yes, well said Nealh, it could well be bad battery connections. If so, signs of corrosion and arcing should be visible on the contacts, and may be fixed by cleaning and tightening the contacts and applying some weatherproof lubricant.

Sounds like it's the BMS possibly cutting out when there is a load on the battery due to low voltage being sensed from internal cell or cells. Looks like you need to have someone look at your battery for you :(

Nice job Awol Looks very neat!

:) Well done Laser Man, Looks good! :)

It could be the Battery Management System (BMS) inside the battery cutting out the battery supply due to a battery problem, probably low battery voltage. I think that there is sometimes a procedure that can be followed to re equalise cell voltage, but sometimes a specific charger is needed. Any...

Placed a rubber washer on the spoke magnet and managed to get it to 2.5mm from the sensor. Feels nice and firm on the spoke and is well lined up with the arrow on the sensor. Nipped out for a quick 6.6 miles and all went well... We will see what happens. Thanks for your replies. I'll ask for...

Another question. The seller was advertising the TSDZ2 as "New upgraded 2018 model" Anyone know if there really was/is a new upgraded 2018 model, or is it just sales talk (that worked on me.....) Additional question. How would I know I have received the new improved model?????

Thanks Zac. Everything appears tightly connected and lined up ok with magnet in center of the arrow on sensor and a 5mm gap. I suppose it could be the sensor that's faulty? As the magnet feels quite strong. Although the speed readout always appears constant and stable with no weird spurious...

Thanks for your help. If the weather permits, I'll try and put some miles on it to see what happens.

Thanks Tony To add more confusion I have just returned from a 13 mile ride with a few climbs but nothing massive, and all worked perfectly :) To me the fault didn't feel or sound mechanical like a transmission gear slipping, if felt intermittent electrical?? I have only done 50 miles. By...

I have just checked both LH and RH torque readings under fixed load by standing a weight on each pedal in turn with the crank turned forwards at 90 degrees. These were the results: LH Crank: Initial reading 78 2.2kg load 84 4.4kg load90 RH Crank: Initial reading 78 2.2kg load 85 4.4kg load 92 I...

Ok, I've found that ther's a hidden menu that appears to show torque sensor values. I'll add the VLCD-5 Manual PDF for info but you may well already have it. The Chinese to English may well have gotten a bit confused in translation... It refers to "te" as Torque signal value and "te1" as...
