Have a kit that a local shop that hasn't done e-bikes before installed for me, but it's not working. I couldn't even get the LCD to turn on even if it and the battery were the only things connected to the controller. I presume that I am correct that if the LCD won't even turn on it's safe to say either the controller or the LCD are messed up, and I'm probably SOL anyway.

Starts with a picture of my old controller after removing to do this upgrade (which obviously was needed based on this picture), and then pics of the LCD panel (front and back with part/serial number), controller (couple pics with model info) and then some battery and battery cable pics.
Shop did not put the chain and pedals back on because the new hub is a bit wider and the old gears wouldn't fit. They are supposed to order some on Monday, but at the moment I have an e-bike that doesn't e or bike. I am back down to only the one car (which my wife has to drive since she is an amputee) and so can't take the bike anywhere. Only places I know of that actually work on such things are in Austin - while I live in SA.
Looking at the pictures, any idea of what I might be able to do? If not, anyone based in Austin or SA who would be willing to come pick it up, get it all sorted out, and return it for a couple hundred plus parts? If not, any where you think I can sell everything for even a fraction of what I paid for it all so that I might be able to get a bike again in a few months?
Regardless I guess I will be walking to work on Monday. While it's only 10.5 miles, the local bus routes make it a 2.5 hour journey, and Goggle claims I can walk it in about the same time.
Hope someone can help, and I guess this just proves some people shouldn't try to roll their own
