    Help! Freego Hawk no power

    Sorry - Yes we do have 5v between the red and black wires on the 5 way connector. The next bit - The voltage on each of the blue, yellow and green wires, while rotating the wheel slowly backwards does not pulse at 5v. There is voltage there - 0.2 - 0.3 but not pulsing.

    Help! Freego Hawk no power

    The £185 was for a DIY kit! Apparently easy - plug and play! Hubby is also convinced its the controller and although you cannot get a direct replacement for the Freego one, he is prepared to spend out for one (£10-£30) and work out where all the wires go. Thank you for your help.

    Thankyou Lancslass and vfr400. We have done everything you have said and still no drive. The LED display is working fine and we disconnected the brakes in the pod just beneath the handlebars and reconnected but no change. The motor connector has also been disconnected and reconnected to...
