It does sound like a connection problem, and with new batteries just fitted I'd check the connection chain through those first to ensure each interconnection stage is sound.

all lights are on,i think he may have traced it to the spade connection from the controller that is in a heat shrink near the handlebar brake cables. I will give him a ring tomorrow to find if he was successful,thanks for the advice.
