I don't know which one you're talking about, but the scooter type are 48v.

On the battery its marked V36....i checked the battery with my meter and it reads 42V and yet the display is flashing low battery...i cant find much info on the internet about this model of bike...the bike works ok with a paddle throttle and the pedal assist seems to be working....if i connect the charger it immediately shows green led.

Look at the controller label to see the voltage. If you have the scooter type, you have to remove some panels to get to it. You still haven’t told or shown us which Eskuta it is.

i will take a look at the controller...by the size of the compartment i would thing its small....im not sure about the model of the bike as it just says eskute dimsix and i think its got to be around at lest five years old....will let you know about the controller later as the bike is at my brothers house some distance away....the bike looks like an early C200 to look at.

i found another bike on the internet which looks very much like my brothers bike with same lcd display...pls see the photos.

OK, that's a bike type, not a scooter. It's probably 36v then. In that case check setting P03 is set to 36v and not 48v.

many thanks

The lcd in your manual is different to the one on the bike and the menu is basic and different...the one on the bike is as shown in the photo....i was unable to get the battery level correct on the lcd display.

The photo doesn't shows just the screen, not the whole thing. What counts, though is what's written on the back.

nothing on the back

Google supplied this manual ?

There are about 5 different control panels that share the same case, so they all look the same, but they're different inside. Try the one that Thelarkbox linked.

I never need a manual. They nearly always work the same and are logical. You press the two buttons within a few seconds of turning on to enter the settings menu. You scroll through the settings with the M or power button and you adjust the setting with the up and down buttons. When you see something that says 36, 48, Vol, or anything like that, you can adjust it or check that it's right.

The KT LCD7 is also the same but different. They have automatic voltage detection that can get messed up because there's an overlap between a 36v battery and a 48v one, where an empty 48v one is 40v and a fully charged 36v one is 42v. If the above doesn't solve anything, you need to remove your battery, short the two pins on the connector on the controller side to discharge any capacitors, wait a few minutes just for luck, then reconnect your battery. Obviously, if it's fully charged at 42v, it might get it wrong again, so you need to discharge it a bit.
