Hi, I'm new here on Endless-sphere, but have posted on V is for Voltage forum before.
I am going to recycle my thread here, as it seems there is more response and action here, and I recognize a few of the posters.
My problem and pics to follow :
Was running WE BL-36 at 61 volts overvolted.
I think I have the 50Amp controller.
The Current draw on the Watt's UP meter, only showed 23 Amps.
Had been running fine.
I was stopped still, at red light.
Went to accelerate, and the front wheel fell off, I think the bolts had come loose.
It might have been that I didnt' pedal, and only used throttle,
or the wheel might have just come loose on it's own.
I put everyting back together, the wires seemed fine going to the motor.
Now the motor makes funny sounds, and doesnt draw as much currrent.
The Watt's Up meter, shows it only draws about 1 to 2 AMPS now,
before it was anything up to 20Amps, but usually just around 10Amps.
Speed is only about 8mph with the wheel off the ground.
It used to be more than 30mph.
Lots of vibration and noise coming from the motor.
Any ideas on what i broke ?
I need to probably take apart the motor ?
Anyone fixed a BL-36 ?
No brushes, but what is there that would need fixing ?
Thanks for any help or ideas.
