Hello

I'm using an ebike contoller to control a hoverboard wheel brushless DC

this is my controller

48V-60V-64V500W30A

I'm using hoverboard battery 36V

I connected the following wires :
RED wire Electric Door Lock -> connected it to + of the battery
BLACK & RED POWER CABLEs -> to the battery
HALL SENSORS & MOTOR PHASE -> to the hoverboard wheel
learning wires -> connected them with each others

After doing that the motor starts to turn but when i plug out the learning wires, it stops
even i connected the throttle
I tried many ways to controll the wheel
I connected an ebike throttle to controller
I gave the throtthe signal a PWM signal from an Arduino
I gave it a PWM signal after passing from a RC circuit
I gave it the red wire directly
but nothing works and the motor doesnt turn when i plug out the learning wires. :cry:

I didnt connect the following wires :

THREE SPEED
Metre Wire
Anti theft & Anti shelf
Cruise Speed wire
Brake Signal High
Brake Signal Low

Thank you !
 
99% chance your controller just has a defect, so ask the vendor for a replacement. What you did should have it working.

If the battery is only 36v but the controller is meant for at least 48v, then most likely the controller is in LVC protect mode (low voltage cutoff), because it thinks the battery is empty.

If that's the case you'll need either a controller for 36v, or a 48v battery.

Thanks! I will take that in consideration, but I have a question, if the controller thinks the battery is empty, why it turns the wheel when i plug in the learning wires ?

I don't know--maybe that function bypasses the LVC?

Or maybe it's not the LVC, and the throttle wiring isn't correct (different colors than expected, etc).

Or the unit requires a PAS sensor to be hooked up and providing a signal from pedalling (even if it doesn't say this anywhere) before the throttle will work.

A number of possibilities.
