I have a situation where I am giving phone help to try to get a bike going.
Unfortunately I cant go to see the bike (to far away) so need to try to work out whats not working.
So far, I have had them test the halls, all good there.
Its only a low power setup, so i am thinking in the end it will be a loose wire. But they have done a good inspection of all the plugs.
Q. How to test the controller. Can I get an indication that the controller is behaving normal by test. Its sending power down to the halls, fires up the CA, but no motor action at all, not even a shudder. How can I test that there is voltage going to the phase wires when the throttle is activated. If I can be assured the controller is ok or not, then I can move on.
This is my guess how to test. Put meter on AC across 2 phase wires. Plug in hall plug to motor, apply throttle and turn wheel (to feed hall signal). Should give me a voltage? What voltage?
Never had to do this before, I am totally guessing here.
Some help please.
We disconnected the e brake to eliminate that, could be the throttle but very unlikely.
We had some issued with the hall plug wires, which may have shorted.
