I will tomorrow. I am at my girlfriend's place for the night now. Thank you.
Pedal assist stopped working on BBS02

I have a Macbook, and no PC. I'd have to borrow one.
As I understand it, the programming cable requires a PC.
But I could get an EggRider display and connect via BlueTooth to a Smartphone app and change any motor firmware settings I could have with the programming cable...right? Or wrong?
Good idea. I will try that tomorrow. Maybe that will reset things a bit.

Personally I'm not a big fan of the eggrider to use as a display.
But it's not a bad tool to change programming and to log statistics for troubleshooting
Just keep in mind that you can't use your current display and the eggrider at the same time

Yes, it seems you actually can turn off PAS with the display, unlike what others have said.
That's why I wanted to see the display, if you have it on 0 it turns off assist !
Oh it's definitely not in 0. I have tried it at various PAS numbers. But I will still send a picture tomorrow.

For god sakes.... I knew you were smarter than that.
And the throttle wouldn't work in 0
Jeez what some do to act helpful.

Yes I know that you can program it to do that. That's one reason why I like the programming cable. But that's not how it comes stock.
I originally did the same thing... But then reverted back as I found there was never an instance where I wanted only throttle.
And for further clarification... disabling the PAS system and putting the PAS system in Neutral 0 are two totally different things.

someone needs to take a chill pill
Well, I've accessed the controller, and the wires all appear to be fine. I have changed the number of pedal assist modes using the display to see if that would reset it and it has not.
I am contacting the Amazon seller I bought it from to see what they say. They are responsive so hopefully this won't be a big deal.
I chose to build this thing knowing it would be full of challenges, so I am keeping my spirits up.

You did say the red lights on the PAS sensor is blinking? Can't see it on the vid.Here is a link to a video of the problem:
The red light on the speed sensor is working. The pedal assist sensor is not visible on this model, to the best of my knowledge. It's inside the motor, I believe.

Try to get a look at the PAS sensor, make sure it didn't get knocked out of place or disconnected etc.
If there is a wire conector for the PAS, pull it off and reinsert it to make sure.
Thanks. I can't figure out exactly where the PAS is. Is it behind the 2 gear like pieces pictured below?

It wouldn't be behind those gears, it is a magnet, so it needs to be close to the PAS magnet wheel,you said there was a magnet knocked out of place on the PAS wheel. Look adjacent to where those magnets rotate.

Show a pic of the PAS magnet wheel.
I'm sorry, the magnet on the speed sensor is what got knocked out of place.
