    New Pace 500 Special Edition Won’t Turn On... Help!

    Update: Aventon finally got back to me and they have concluded as well that it’s probably a bad controller. A replacement is on its way. They described the location of the controller (in frame below bottom battery mount) and I’ve gotten the old one out, awaiting the new one. Fingers crossed.
