Common problems with the controller may come from wiring mistakes, loose connections, malfunctioning switches or faulty fuses.
To diagnose controller issues, follow these steps:
-
Ensure that the power switch is turned on.
-
Verify that the wiring connections are correctly positioned and secure. If there is a connection error, refer to the instruction manual to correct it.
-
Check if the controller has a fuse. If the fuse is burnt out, as indicated by a black wire, it needs to be replaced.
- If your e-bike is equipped with a circuit breaker, reset it. However, exercise caution as this step affects the current protection function of the entire system. If any issues arise, the entire controller may need to be replaced.
Typically, if there is an issue with the controller when purchasing a new e-bike, it can often be resolved by following the initial two steps above. It is more likely to encounter problems with damaged circuit breakers and fuses with e-bikes that have been in use for an extended period. In such cases, it is advisable to seek professional advice before attempting any repairs.
