    Well finally had half an hour spare to fix the bike. Hooray it works. Just been for a 10 minute ride. Feels like everywhere is down hill :)

    Charging and fuse now sorted. Connected up outside the case and all is well. Chare cuts out with batteries at 39v. Is this correct? Green light comes on charger. Next work out why bike not working. Gut reaction is controller. Any simple checks?

    Another problem! !!! Charged batteries and all went fine. Checked switch, plugs etc. but all looked fine. Reconnected the charder and now blowing the battery fuse. Any ideas? I have not got a wiring diagram to follow. Thanks

    Well put batteries inn and now showing 41v. Connected to the bike and ....... nothing. No lights showing up. Put a meter to the key switch and showing 41v on the red wire. Turn the key and both brown are showing voltag. (Nothing on the brown when off). Any idea on next steps? Thanks Rob

    Just bought a set of leoch 15ah batteries. Should arrive tomorrow. Fingers crossed it is just a battery problem.

    Just stripped the battery pack and each side of the batterys are like the alps. Guess they are shot. Battery terminals as soldered rather than spade. Does this indicate an older version?

    Well finally dug out my meter. Batteries are showing 30v. Checked charger and shows 42v at lead. Had a quick look around the controller and no loose wires, etc. No lights are showing on the panel. Would you expect to see any with 30v? All advice greatly appreciated. Rob

    The bike is only to be used for 10 mile commute and small cycle trips with kids (trailer bike attached). Do you think sla batteries will do the job?

    Are you saying lithium is the way to go? I thought maintained sla batteries although heavy do the job. Was hovering over ebay buy it now until the last post.

    Also any guidance on swapping the batteries would be good. Is it as straightforward as removing screws disconnect spades remembering which one went where then reassemble?
