HALL SENSE WIRES

The white wire is the speed sensor. It's not needed for normal operation, but if your controller has a sleep mode set, it will go to sleep after the set time unless you can unset it.
You can use an external speed sensor if you have an LCD and want to get your display back. Just cut the sensor of a £2 cycle computer from Ebay or from a defunct one you have lying around. Connect one wire to the white and the other to any 5v, like the motor hall red. If that doesn't work, connect it to any ground (black).
