*i am noob, only second ebike*
I recently bought a 1800w brush less motor kit off of ebay on sale for only 180$. i received the motor plugged it into my new 48v battery and nothing. i checked the throttle wires to make sure the throttle was working, got 5v on the 5v line and signal from the throttle on signal line. i made sure the power lock was shorted out and working (with it not shorted power to throttle goes away). so now i disconnected the motor and checked the hall sense wires, all at around 5v. i checked the actual power carrying wires going to the motor twisted the throttle and got a 0v reading, no power is being outputted form the controller for some reason. im not sure if i need to short out another set of wires (like the power lock) to get the motor working. ive sent the seller a message but in the meantime i just want to know if theres some noobie mistake im making and if there is some way to make it work
