    Hall sensor interchangeability SS41

    See that's the thing, I had the SS41F, not the SS41 on my motor. Note the difference in the F. So what I am asking is if that F makes any difference. Sure Mouser has SS41 in stock, but they don't have SS41F. So that's why I'm asking if the F matters. The only difference I could find when...

    Hall sensor interchangeability SS41

    So, my halls are dead. They are SS41F, and I figured for simplicity I would replace it with the same sensors. However, it apparently is rather hard to find SS41F. No one has them in stock (I checked Digi-Key, Mouser, and about two dozen other places). Digi-Key told me it would be an 8 week wait...

    Sogged motor, possibly dead halls

    Great link there about the hole drilling! That gives me a good idea of how to do it right. I have a bit of an update on my latest batch of testing. Now that everything is all cleaned up and dry I was able to do some more testing and such. The "blue wire" hall sensor was always reporting 4v, and...

    Sogged motor, possibly dead halls

    So, I tore it back open, and cleaned it up a bit. First I used an old toothbrush, and a mixture of water and baking soda. That took the majority of it off. I ran over it for a while with a dremel tool, but it was a pretty crappy bit (plastic bristles, not metal) so before long that bit was...

    Sogged motor, possibly dead halls

    I reassembled the motor, just because I couldn't find a strong enough magnet laying around the house. Gave it a few spins while plugged in, and found the source of the problem. One of the halls is constantly reporting 5v. In the picture I posted it would be the one on the right (the blue wire)...

    Sogged motor, possibly dead halls

    I tried testing the halls... but my testing setup is a bit shoddy, and I can't find magnets quite good enough (bucky balls don't appear to be strong enough). I think I'll reassemble it just to test the halls. And yup, the halls say on them "41F 030", so sounds like I need the Honeywell SS41F...

    Sogged motor, possibly dead halls

    Yeah I've seen the video before, great stuff! And good links all around here. The links on the rust ones are great. Makes my rust problems look tiny! How certain are you that the Honeywell SS41 will be an equal replacement to the halls on my motor? Any advice on where would be a good quick...

    Sogged motor, possibly dead halls

    So, my bike malfunctioned. It is an ampedbikes motor. It has this wonderful jerky sensation. If it were a gas motor you would say that one of the cylinders is missing. After a bit of research, I found other descriptions of what it is like when a hall sensor dies. I had hoped it was just a simple...
