Ezee Sprint, Motor controller access.

[Bammy]

Hi folks,

I have to access the motor controller box to connect leads from a replacement Mk 1 battery condition meter. Does anyone happen to have done this? It looks as though one needs angled screwdrivers to get at the screw heads to release the control box. Is it necessary to remove the key assembly as well?
Advice gratefully received. Thanks

Either stubby or angled screwdriver. I could get the controller off without disturbing the lock box on my Torq or Quando models but the more sloping back seatpost on the Sprint might make extraction from below the lock box awkward. Try without moving the lock box though, it will probably drop in between the rear frame stays enough to be able to wriggle it out.

IIRC, I used a cross-head bit with a 1/4" drive ratchet arm from my socket set.
