    Help! Lcd setting issues for s830 screen

    P9 set to 0 doesn't do anything when you have P10 set to 2. You can have pedal assist only, independent throttle only or pedal assist plus throttle that only works when you pedal.

    Help! Lcd setting issues for s830 screen

    You have a display that communicates with the controller for pedal assist by analogue signal. P05 selects between 3 or 5 power levels. The controller is programmed to react to the voltage levels in the signal wire the same as if that were the throttle signal wire. You should be able to use...

    Not safe even in Tunbridge Wells

    I would have ridden and reacted exactly the same as OP. but you have to be aware that there is in fact another rule about roundabouts. You must give way to any vehicle that's already on the roundabout. That rule takes precedence over the giving way to the right. It's what protects you on a slow...

    Review Woosh Rio MTB Review/Initial Impressions

    Most bicycle hydraulic brakes are self-bleeding, so no need to use a bleed kit. Just turn the bike up the right way then keep working the brake lever until it goes firm. When you turn the bike upside down, any air in the reservoir will go up the hose if you touch the lever, but when you turn it...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Maybe you don't pay for the Daily Mirror, but you definitely read it, otherwise how would you be able to make quotes from it , as in your post number 32,202?

    Yosepower hub kits.

    It's an SS41, cost about 20p. Available on EBay.. They don't break unless you do something stupid with the electrics.

    Tickety tick tick

    Check again more thoroughly and check it's not the disk touching the camper if you have one. Caliper - bloody smartphone auto-correcting again.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    That's the speed sensor. You can see it's on the stator, so is stationary. The magnet that switches it is on the inside of the hub and goes round at wheel speed. The motor hall sensors are in the top where your photo is cut off.

    Help! Cortina ebike

    The grinding noise is when the motor controller doesn’t synchronise with the motor. It controls the motor by firing high frequency pulses of electricity into the motor. Those pulses have to be timed to match the position of the motor vis a vis the position of the magnets with respect to the...

    8 to 12 magnet PAS

    Single hall sensors switch according to how they cut lines of magnetic flux. They only switch if you have the right polarity and the right direction, but passing a South magnet from the left, it's the same as passing a North one from the right, which is why pedal sensors reverse direction when...

    Phase wires

    That's interesting because I had a similar but different experience. I've been repairing electric bikes for many years using the same methods, and I noticed that since I put my prices up, like you, I haven't had a single issue with of any of the repairs, so one could conclude that the price of...

    Phase wires

    No need for a connector. It's cheaper and more reliable to solder the wires. When does anyone ever need to disconnect one except to check whether they have a bad connection? When by some chance, there's a blue moon and flying pigs, and you find a reason to disconnect, the wire cutters can...

    8 to 12 magnet PAS

    Don't waste your time and money. I bet you won't notice any difference, except that it might not work at all because some controllers don't like them. Why do you want to change it? Is it because your controller gives a delay? That won't change by using a different magnet disc.

    When the LED control panel doesn't switch on, it's because it isn't getting anything from the battery. Use a voltmeter to measure the volts between the black and red wires on its connector. If your battery is 42v you should see 42v there, otherwise you have to find where the battery supply is...

    Help! ERROR E22 AND E21

    The sensors get dirty and need cleaning from time to time if you use them in dirty or wet conditions. They're easy to take apart. You have to clean out the little slots that yu can see when you get it apart. Did you clean your on the outside or inside? The other frequent problem is that the wire...

    Help! Help please?

    Are you talking about the socket for the charger? I think they use the coaxial type similar to RCA. They're not very easy to find, so think about replacing the one on the charger as well as one in the battery as a pair thenyou can use any connectors like GX16 or 6.3 mm jack. RCA is the right...

    Q100 loses power, makes whining noise at low speed

    You can confirm the current setting by watching the power shown on the LCD. Which speed version do you have? The slower one can work with a higher current controller because it doesn't allow high current at cruising speed.

    The tale of a £100 second hand electric bike.

    That bike dates back to around 2011 or 2012. Battery sag was normal due to cells in it which are not as good as what you can get today.
