No reply to emails to Powabyke so thought I'd try here.
Bought X bike with 36 V system in Oct 2008. No problems until recently and very happy with bike, mainly used for 8 mile commute.
Recently however the battery seemed to stop retaining charge, ie after overnight charge getting only 2 lights out of 4 on state of charge indicator.
Check with multimeter shows ok output from transformer at 42V. Battery is indicating 38V so appears also to be ok.
Problem appears to be control box, has anyone on forum had similar problems? - will I need to replace the control box - and how much this likely to cost.
Please don't tell me to go to dealer only one here in Ireland and he's a long way from here!
