I have recently bought a secondhand powabyke euro.
Second time out I rode down over a kerb and from then on it has stopped working!
Im fairly competent with Electrics having previously worked with electric wheelchairs and similar, even so I find the system a bit baffling.
The battery is fully charged and the LED panel lights up normally.
All connections seen intact and the motor powers up when I connect it from an independant battery.
The throttle assembly is a recent new part.
The bike has what I describe as a 'motion sensor' in the rear hub and one also under the crank assembly.(are these 'hall effect' sensors?)
Has anyone any experience of simplifying the set up,possibly eliminating the two sensors mentioned altogether, and is there a way of teporarily bypassing the throttle assy (for test purposes only).If it had two wires I could 'jump' them together but there are 3 wires.Not sure how to test this.
I have a digital multimeter if anyone can offer a test sequence.
Any tips or advice gratefully accepted!
Thanks.
Phil.
