Help needed - South Wales

[Tredegar]

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, but anybody got any details of a shop or mobile person who can work fixing an issue on a conversation project in South Wales?

Hand issues is stopping me fixing it so need some expert help.

Thanks.

@Tredegar are you in Tredegar? Have you tried asking EC Cycles and VC Cycles? They both sell ebikes, might have willing ebike repair staff?

Could searching social media and ebay etc. for local listings featuring converted bikes, ebike battery repair, lead you to someone who'd be willing to do the work required for a fee? This chap on Gumtree for instance, is about 20 miles away:

What is the issue you are having ?

I'm not a million miles away in Ceredigion.
What's occuring?

 

[Tredegar]

It should have had torque bars on, as it's a 1000w hub for use up on the mountain. Only used it in garden and back wheel come out of dropouts. Got everything back in checked the wiring etc, but getting 'motor position sensor fault" after a few seconds of power to back wheel.

It'll be easier to buy a new motor wheel. Most people wouldn't want to touch a repair like that. if they do, it's about £10 to £20 for a new cable and about two hours work, whatever rate they charge.

Thanks all for your help

The motor comingout of the drop out will have twisted and shorted some of yhe wiring at the axle , as d8ve has said unless yo can do the rewiring buy a new motor.
