Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me.
Should have probably asked for help before I purchased a new controller.
I have a 3 wheel mobility type scooter with a 750 watt 48 volt direct drive brushless motor (front wheel). It had a generic controller with reverse and no display. Link to old controller https://www.amazon.ca/Motor-Brushle...sor+controller+for+e-bike,sporting,174&sr=1-3
I wanted to upgrade to a better controller with a display so I bought a new KT36/48SVPRK-SLS02G controller with a KT-LCD8H display. Link to new controller https://www.amazon.ca/Brushless-Con...ontroller+regenerative+braking,aps,142&sr=8-1
I hope I put the links in correctly.
Anyway, I have not been able to get this new controller to work. I have hooked up only the basic connections needed. Power, throttle, motor wires, 6-wire phase connector (no signal wire, white wire), electric lock - jumpered, with and without the display (display plug bypassed without the display) and get nothing. Motor doesn't spin or even try to start, when using the display the display does turn on, won't work in walk-mode from the display (should this bypass the throttle).
Everything will work with the old controller, so motor and throttle are fine. I have gone over all connections multiple times, verifying proper wiring, polarity, etc. I have the wiring diagrams for both controllers and have communicated with the seller of the new controller without results.
I thought I did my homework, checking what would work with my scooter but am now having doubts. Can any one tell me if this new controller will replace the old one. I knew I would have some work to do changing connectors and setup stuff but thought it would at least show me it would work. I have either a faulty controller or I have an incompatible controller, can anyone help me rule out that I haven't just purchased the wrong controller. Seller thought it should work.
I believe I have a fairly good understanding of my scooter and how it should work and should be somewhat knowledgeable about wiring, schematics, etc. as I was an Electronics Technician (medical field) in my younger years.
Thank again.
