Blinking LED and motor won't run...

[e-troll]

So I just finished installing a new motor (identical to last one I had on the same bike but had to be changed). Hooked up wires exactly as I had them before but motor will not run. Infineon controller (35 amp version) from ebikes.ca has a slowly blinking LED. Don't know if that means something. Also, when I give a bit of throttle I hear the faintest "tick" from the motor but then nothing. I would suspect the wiring was off but like I said, same motor as before, hooked up the same way. Ideas?

What motor is it?
How / what wire combo?

It is a 9C clone. Has hall sensors. I just checked the voltages and those are good. Does the blinking LED on the controller mean anything?

 

[DAND214]

I don't know since my Infinions don't have a led.

What combo on the wiring?

Try changing a pair of phase wires and see.

The wires colors my have changed at the factory on A-B-C. It has happen before.

if there is no pattern in the blinking you can assume it is not signalling some status failure. if it has a multiple number of pulses, it might indicate a problem with the controller.

I've found the same. I have lots of controllers that blink. When they blink with a consistent interval, everything is OK, but when there's a pattern of blinks, something is wrong.
