Hello Neal H, Pardon my ignorance, the history regarding this being that I acquired the bike about a month ago from a friend of a friend, a widow, whose husband kept the bike for spares, so little is known about it but, from its condition, it is apparent that it has not been used for a very long time so I thought I would try to resurrect it.
I have examined the controller which is well rusted and needs replacing. In order to see if the hub motor was working I removed the wheel and connected it to my normal bike, which is also a Salisbury, to see if the motor on this wheel was working. once connected it didn't work. I thought that it was probably the hall sensors but it may not be. I didn't realize that I wouldn't be able to test them if I took the motor out of the hub. If I am to do the test as described by VFR, I will need to connect it to the working bike which I can do but I am concerned that there may be other motor issues that I haven't discovered hence my need to remove the motor from the hub. Can you help with this? I have opened the screwed cover to expose the nylon cogs but I can't see how to expose the motor unless I take off the gear cassette then knock the spindle through? Any help or advise is appreciated. Cheers, Bob
