I've a momentum Upstart with a 36V 9 Ah Battery. Been working fine and came to it the other day and nothing. No power at all, no power to the hard wired light.
Checked the battery. Fine
Checked the connections on the bike. Fine.
Seems like no power at all to the controller.
Then check the connector situated on the battery. When I did a volt test on the battery I had to put some wire into the connectors as they are recessed. When I attach the battery to the bike and check the other side of the connectors there is no voltage.
So I'm assuming it is the 'pinch' connector pictured. The 2 outer poles are the ones used to transfer the voltage. They do look pitted but if I place a bare wire in each and test it, the battery seems fine.
Once connected to the bike then nothing.
Is it something I could replace or clean up?
The connections are still tight and I'm concerned about dismantling it further in case it won't go back.
Any ideas ?
