Schwinn Sting Ray Electric bike with hub motor

[stingray323]

The 36 volt conversion was easy and it works
A hot day and a steep ride overheated my control box
I am not to bright about opening it up but it got real hot
so even the nine pin plug in was melted
I see three major wires green blue yellow and five minor wires red and black blur green yellow too.
so these corrospond to the throttles blue green yellow red black as well
I had no luck on the warranty because no parts are forthcoming they had no sure date of them being available.
I need to get back on my bike I love it so much
Is there a controller from gurrie or from a scooter that could work or is there a cheap fix out there I know many have done 36 volts to the ananda hub with exellent and easy add on battery.
mine is fantastic I live at thetop a high hill and no bike can make It mine did till one hot day it just stopped at the top and has not been running since I bypassed the melted nine pin plug that got hot but alas it s dead HELP Please

I think you asked this same question in this thread: http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5088

I posted an answer there. Hope it helps you, especially since I'll need the same soon.

It is now Febuary, I had purchased a new Hub motor kit from" Campsolutions.com" that was useable for my 24 inch fron wheel. I comprised a wheel throttle controller with key switch.
I realized that the new kit had a three wire controller with no Hall effects.
So I decided to hook up the new controoler to my original rear wheel with a 24 volt 250 watt motor that had died.
I already knew the motor was simply stalled out due to bad wiring in the Halls
It runs great now
the controller is 48volt three phase with no sensor wires.
this allows current thru to start up the rear motor after the original controller failed.
so if you have this bike and it wont run just buy the controller from Campsolutions.com for 49.95 48 or 36 volt with throttle attached and you can run three batterys in the chromed case easily.
I run two inside case and two outside on a rear rack and get 48 volts of power to the rear or front hub motors.

I copied

Campsolutions.com

from your post, and pasted it to my browser and got sent to a site that shows the domain name for sale, and a list of links, but NOTHING about E-Bikes or controllers or hubmotors. A few minutes with Google and I discovered that what is needed to get to the site you referred to is this:

www.campsolution.com/

Having found the site, the only price on the page is for the Out Of Stock complete rear hubmotor kit with rack, bag, controller, and hubmotor in a rim. The site took was a little strange to navigate, but the product lineup seems pretty good.

I gather your dealings with the company were successful, so that's good. I bookmarked the site for future reference.

On another note, you're running the Stingray with both front and rear wheel drive - wow!!! How does it handle? Got any pictures??? I'm waiting for a side cover for my Crystalyte 5304 hubmotor for my Stiletto project bike, and the Stingray is gathering dust right now. I'm thinking that the Stiletto, with it's looong wheelbase and lots of front end rake may not handle city traffic as well as the shorter and not so extremely raked Stingray. I've also collected a couple of non-electric Stingrays, that I'd like to motorize, but they do not have provision for front brakes. After a couple of "too close for comfort" episodes at the railroad tracks in my neighborhood, I LIKE brakes!!!

So many projects, so little time and money.....
