    controller or wire loom faulty?

    Rather then work backwards with a LV reading , best to start with the battery and work forwards. Double check battery out put voltage first. If battery reads ok then controller out put voltage next , it may have a regulator component failure on the voltage side. I had this happen once on my...

    Di Blasi trike

    Power is down to the controller power supplied, typically 12- 15a is the max rating for most generic controllers but also the battery power output is another factor. We would need to know your T34 battery specs and the controller rating. For more power then more controller amps are generally...

    Does walk assist work ? Depress minus pad and hold , walk assist should kick in to 6kmh .

    controller or wire loom faulty?

    If the loom is a non KT specific one, then the wiring sequence may not be compatible. With looms they all usually split off at the bulbous end where they all splice off for other peripherals so may be the reason why it isn't working. E-bike Integration Cable Waterproof 1-5 For KT Controller...

    Battery not fully charging

    Problem is the new cells should have been charged seperately to the level of the old ones before fitting. As cells are out of balance best option is to manually raise the new cells /unbanaced cell groups to match the others. 0.6v is quite a way out and the BMS will take ages to try and sort...

    Controller

    If you fault find and find it it is ok then make sure the sensor is aligned with the magnets on the disc and the gap is 1mm or less. The disc should be securely fixed and not able to rotate manually around it's axis . If a new PAS is needed then one of these will work but needs a crank puller...

    Controller

    All PAS sensors work the same as all have three wires. Fault find the PAS first to see if in fact it is faulty. Connect /fit it back on , you have the sm block connector so is easy to test. Does the red led not spark to life at all on the sensor ? To fault find use a meter and probe the...

    I think Kudos have shut up shop now or were scaling the business down.

    Camera Comparison

    The first one is by far the best. Now we want one for the spy glasses to see how they compare.

    Impel 3 No pedal assist

    We need to know the PAS type is cadence or a torque sensor operation. Also would be handy to supply some clear pics of the bottom bracket and behind the chain wheel.

    Is the new wire loom a KT specific one or a generic one ?

    Battery Fires

    I can't believe how dense the guy is, no it's not on fire just overheated. What the hell does he think when it's billowing a cloud bank from the battery. Fire will happen once it gets to an unacceptable temperature. Looks like current draw was too high for the battery to over heat.

    Incident caught on camera.

    A poor bit of driving visually esp as that car at the T junction could have pulled out, they should have passed after the junction . Worth sending to Op snap as at least he deserves a good lecturing regarding his poor judgement.

    Battery Fires

    Yes it is a factor. And most likely dodgy practices. Too high current draw for cheap celled batteries on full throttle . See too many of them around here now, not an ounce of human power input.

    Battery Fires

    Yes media etc ,etc jump on the band wagon blaming batteries as unsafe , but we never know the cause of such instances. The unknown is always the procedure /practice leading up to and includung charging. I suspect as in my #71 that for the diy fires , one of the causes is one that is listed may...

    Battery Fires

    So many possibilities for battery issues I think stem from the user . Fast charging beyond the BMS and cell type specs. Reverse charging , seems at time to becoming a trend on here . Simply bad advice followed . Over current draw useage of batteries not suitable for some power diy builds...

    And todays idiots are

    In law the green light is legal if the way is clear , if a motorist hits someone they may be found at fault . We know of the Dalston case where the guy hit a women /she walked out in front of him . His light was green so he carried on despite having an illegal 1kw kit he was found not...

    PASS Wiring question

    One really needs the display manual to confirm wiring. Logically one would say ; Blk to Blk = Gnd. Red to Brown = Voltage supply. Blue to Orange = Return Sw voltage. Grn to Grn = Comms. Ylw to Wh = Comms. Don't blame the messenger if in correct.
