Alright, last update from me in this thread for a while probably.
I cut the ground wire when using the controller's power supply indeed.
Fany is still around! I made sure to let him know the Endless Sphere community is thankful for his support:)
So anyway.. I took apart the mechanical brake...
Actually I never measured voltage when using the controller as power supply. I just ASSUMED it was 5v, so I hooked up a different 5v supply to the throttle.. but it didn't cross my mind to first check the voltage of the controller to confirm it is actually giving 5v, that's a mistake from my...
Alright, so I had some time to test the theory that the throttle ground might have a poor connection. And that the system would go open throttle when the ground connection is lost.
First of all, I hooked up the throttle to a voltage meter. I graphed out the results which I got;
This all seems...
Looks really interesting, I will look into those add-ons for sure!
Good idea, I'm going to try to do that sometime next week when I have time. Will report back if I find something interesting!
Also a great idea, good to know where we're at before making changes :P
I like the confidence, I...
This is difficult though, so far I am unable to consistently reproduce the problem, since it only happened twice in over 300km of riding! I cant test ride it without a throttle :P
This sounds possible, but isn't that completely insane? I would guess it is a common problem that some wire would...
Concerning that, I decided to not use their mechanical brake levers with throttle cut-off switch, since I want to keep the hydraulic brakes that were already on the bike.
TLDR: Two times, my custom built bike suddenly unintentionally accelerated. Is this a common issue? What is the best way to move forward with this issue?
