    PAS Problems with Bafang Rear Hub-Drive Kit

    I would expect the pinouts on the yellow plug to be standard, You will have a 35 inch cable to deal with. These sensors put out their own distinctive pulse trains which may or may not be recognized by your controller. For example, I just replaced a 6 magnet sensor with a 12 magnet model. Both...

    PAS Problems with Bafang Rear Hub-Drive Kit

    Possible causes. 1. Loose connection. 2. You broke all the splines on wheel, so it is not spinning. 3. Broken sensor, The problem with testing them is getting access to the wires. If you're electrically skilled, you can slit the cable to expose three wires. Probably red, black,and white. I just...

    Light(est) small Ebike with throttle for disabled wife (5'2")

    Look at the Qualisports lineup. While they offer a fat tire model, if your wife enjoyed cycling she would probably feel more at home on the thinner tires. The Blix Vika+ also is a lighter folder. We're both riding 26" and 27" bikes now, with over 3000 miles on them, but before that we took 20"...

    Also, are there any aftermarket lights or accessories that run off USB attached to the bike? If the bike's USB ports are always on, some of them will run your battery dowm, given enough time,

    Serial 1 Cty/Rush speed Gen. 2 battery drains while off

    Sweet looking bike. Brand new? Contact seller and use the warranty, If the battery is removeable, you could charge it and see if it loses charge out of the bike after a few days. Then the service peoples would have some useful data.

    Here's another version of an M5 manual. Look at the P09 setting, Says if you set P09 to zero, you get a zero start. Maybe that means it starts in PAS0 Otherwise set to 1 for a non-zero start, https://akezebikes.com/m5-display-manual/

    Battery confusion

    Did you get this one for $239? It says seller pays for return shipping. You may not realize how difficult or expensive it is to legally ship lithium batteries. The same battery sells on amazon with a rack, and is definitely listed as non-returnable, but they will send you a second one if the...

    Help needed with M5 controller - No P0 or manual mode

    M5 owners manual. Maybe you can try the 5 level and 9 level PAS settings instead of 3 level. The manual says it doesn't have a PAS 0 in all three PAS options. Does it have a throttle? There is a reset mode P01 to go to default settings., Don't ever use it, as there are a couple of settings...

    Battery confusion

    "I just got this UnitPackPower rack mount battery off of Ebay,. I plugged it in overnight, but not with the power on. I realize now I think I was supposed to leave the power on while charging." You must mean that you didn't turn on the battery's on/off switch? I've owned plenty of batteries...

    Old pensioner rider need help

    Well, before you get into settings changes, were your two throttles the right type? They must be a female socket, and I'm not sure that a gender adapter gives the right pinout. Also buy an actual bb0s2b throttle, not just a bafang throttle, as they may differ between the hubmotor and the...

    Old pensioner rider need help

    I was just riding my BBS02B bike today in the wind. Throttle is pretty handy when it's gusting 18 mph in your face, This is the standard BBS02B/BBSHD harness used in the kits. I believe Bafang changes the gender on the throttle connector. It uses male pins at the harness, but most generic...
