Hello everyone, long time follower first time poster.
So I decided it was time for a mid-life crisis and I picked up a junked 80s Kitana and decided to convert it to electric. I stripped it down, and got my QSMotor 8KW into it, all wired up with an AE96600. Hall motor tests and all look great. But as soon as I plug in the throttle, or boot it with the throttle plugged in I get throttle error messages. Also any attempt to program the controller with the throttle plugged in will give a check throttle, motion error.
I have tried adjusting the throttle settings in the app so 0-3 instead of 1-4, same problems. I did pick up a new throttle, but am waiting for deliver on it. Has anyone seen something similar? Any troubleshooting steps I should test out before I wire up the new throttle in case it can be returned?
I'll share pics on my absolutely ghetto build, as I am trying to build this without a majority of tooling that intelligent people would use.
