Hi all, I'm new here & have just discovered this site after lots of searching for assistance with a problem with my Furosystem Furo XMax ebike.
I presume you are aware the company Furosystems seems to have disappeared. There are still some basic webpages available with manuals etc but nothing to contact.
The problem I have with the bike is I am not receiving any assistance from the motor when pedalling. The display was recording speed as 50kph & the display seemed to freeze at that & the motor would cut out & then not re-engage without switching off & on again, after which it do exactly the same again.
After some searching I was able to locate a replacement controller unit, the original was looking fairly secondhand & perhaps had water ingress. They are a very specific, smaller size required to fit in the frame, but this did not make any difference.
I have reset to factory settings on the KBY-DISP display unit which has stopped the high-speed reading, it appears to be showing speed correctly & alos recording distance travelled. The walk mode now works, this indicates the motor is functioning & all cables are connected correctly. But there is still no assistance kicking in on any of the five PAS levels.
I have cleaned the sensor which sits next to a small disk on the crank\inner chainring, this has an illuminated red light when the battery/display is switched on.
Any advice or suggestions would be gratefully received!
With kind regards
Jim
