Hi All, apologies in advance for such a noob question.
I installed my first hub motor kit and everything worked fine for a couple weeks until the power from the 52V Shark battery kept cutting out. If I wiggled or pulled the wires, the power might temporarily return.
At first, I thought it was my poor soldering (this was the first time I ever soldered anything and it didn't look pretty), so I re-soldered the wires from both the controller and the battery to XT90 pigtails. Same result. It looked more and more like the connection of the wires to the battery board/mount was the culprit and pulling on the wires with the lights turned off confirm this as the connection sparks.
As a total noob, should I disconnect and try to solder the wires to the battery board/mount or take it to an electrician or handyman? Thanks.
