    Pity the colour blind!

    Or check see if the fan is turning on the charger, if it has one. If it hasn't, feel the charger see if it is hot or cold. Not perfect but quick and easy.

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    When I was young I used to think National Service was wrong. But looking at some of the teenagers coming out of schools my opinion is beginning to change.

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    oops think my mistake in spelling has given me some stars. :rolleyes: Was always more into maths and physics than english. Reminds me of a Plato quote. "Knowledge which is acquired under compulsion has no hold on the mind. Therefore do not use compulsion, but let early education be rather a...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    "Not mentioning names, there are one or two on here!" sort of personalizes it a bit? not mentioning names leaves the back door open a bit."Don't be sorry" us scots have thick skin. Think its to do with the weather. True i never started the post but I didn't drive it off co**** either. Just...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    Think i will pull out this thread keeps going back and forth with regards to me helping someone with a battery. Maybe best to pm next time Rog if you don't agree with something said or done than bring it up in public. Bringing it up in this thread to me has degraded what could have been a good...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    Ebike electronics can only go so far due to all we are asking it todo. A wiring diagram isnt much to ask for. As said previous not everyone stays near a dealer nor have they the money to pay them to diagnose a simple fault never mind having to add carrier charges to get it to them. I agree...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    What I get for reading when I should have been in my bed. The joys of having Monday off. Excellent manual and by the looks a good product. Products are usually better when the people involved have a passion for the subject. Quality over money can be a good thing. "The Chinese" was a flippant...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    I hear you Rog and Muckymits, I do forget sometimes that some people don't understand the basics in using electrical equipment. Once the mistake was made I then advised him to take up the offer from another member to fix it for him. Maybe bit late but well... You are correct though and it is...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    Cheers flecc. Was hoping the controller diagram was in there too though that was only for progressing my knowledge on how things work electronically. Not much use to the average person plus controllers are not to bad priced to replace till you go up into the higher amps. Some things best kept...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    None of that was aimed at you Cyclezee was a response to shemozzle999 post. Cant agree with his argument at all. Makes no sense. I deal with circuit boards there pennies to make these days only real cost would be the redesigning of a circuit board. In my opinion maybe 15 quid extra on a bike...

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    Neptune, don't fall into the trap :) why should we suffer for other peoples stupidity. Do we ban knives and forkes, sharp pencils, bikes would have to go under that argument.

    should E bike,s have a diagnostic test system

    Could always make it on demand to stave off the people who are not confident in trying themselves. Nanny state comes to mind. you buy a ladder and fall of it-your fault. if you buy a car and get your twanger caught in the exaust-its your fault. If you fall of your bike its-your fault. If you...

    Battery Price Register

    Tis a nice idea but most bike manufacturers want to sell you the bike first. I recon some batteries are way overpriced but its a touchy topic in my opinion. I remember reading a post by flecc i think (one smart gentleman) about terminals, types, BMS... so its hard to say about the quality of a...

    Feedback sought for Pedelecs site update

    Is it possible to add a simple draw board feature for drawing simple diagrams? Currently in a post trying to help a user fault find his bike. I know diagrams can be done by external programs and added as a pic but i recon more peeps would spend time drawing out simple diagrams if it was built...

    Electric Bike Stopped Working........ Help!!!!

    Yeah unfortunately it probably will be :( i dont know that battery though so i cant say for sure. To be honest maybe you would be best to take Frank up on his kind offer. He could connect a new battery up to it and check it all out with ease. Plus easier to learn when someone is showing you...

    Electric Bike Stopped Working........ Help!!!!

    Im trying to keep it as simple as i can. But i understand what your saying looking at some of the posts. A simple draw board ability would make a big difference, nothing complex. Though i suppose it can be done with an external program and added as a pic. Just be handy if it was part of the...
