Hi all,
I have an ebikes.ca 9C kit that recently went through a round of troubleshooting/replacements. After getting the kit all sorted out, replacing the controller and motor (all under warranty, and with excellent support from ebikes.ca) I seem to be unable to charge the ping (48v/15ah).
The CA shows resting around 51v at the moment, and I have ridden about 40% of capacity (estimated) since the last charge during testing and the first commute in a while this morning. The red light on the charger however does not come on, and the BMS does not light up.
During one of the rounds of testing, the wiring on the motor was damaged where they come out of the axle during shipping. It was on the bottom and I did not notice until after I had plugged everything in for a test, and it likely shorted. My concern is that a voltage spike may have damaged/fried the BMS.
Other than the obvious, how can I determine if this is indeed the issue? And related - if the BMS is down, what is a safe pack voltage to ride it down to (I have to get home today at the least).
Thanks
