Hi Eno and welcome to the forum. To help people answer your query, could you provide more information please 1. I presume you are talking about a TSDZ2 system? 2. What power is the motor (250w,350w,500w,750w?) 3. What battery have you got (voltage and amp/hr)? 4. What display are you using? 5...

I've just read that linked to article on dendrites - full of if's, buts, maybes and other unquantified possibilities. Then there's the stuff about charging densities in mA per sq centimetre without any attempt to relate that to real world batteries we use everywhere, let alone in ebikes. And...

As a forum lurcker of other (non-assist) cycling websites, Halfords often got a lot of stick for their lack of expertise in setting up ordinary bikes, so I can't imaging that their expertise on ebikes is any the better. That doesn't apply to all Halfords stores or course and only the negative...

I wonder if this a deliberate play on words by the seller (or something that has got lost in the translation from Chinese) in that the UK Warehouse is a Bonded Warehouse which would indeed mean the item was as yet free of tax? And is the 'two package' all part of the deception in that the...

...... and how much of your own effort you want to put into your cycling to say nothing of the type of terrain you want to be cycling on. So your question is a simple one but the answer to it is far from straight forward. I ride my bike mainly on assist level 1 (the lowest assist level) and...

Ah right - every day's a school day - subsequent to my post I found the diagram below - maybe @roques you could temporarily wire up as per the pic to eliminate/determine the display as the problem?

I'm new to ebikes but not electronics and from your description above, my first thoughts are that the problem lays within the controller. I say this without any specific knowledge of the circuits involved here, but however it works, the power is not staying latched on when you press the on/off...

Thanks for the warning Matthew- I'll not be following on that one!

That's the popular press for you - anything to grab your attention - as you say, no substance to the story at all. If the fire was solely due to a battery overheating against a radiator (can that happen?) then any ebike, kit or not (as in some mega £000's job) would be susceptible - but that...

If you d If you do manage to up the restricted assist level, be prepared for reduced range from your battery. People ride ebikes for many different reasons - for me, I wanted to recover some level of fitness after a period of 'downtime' and so I having been putting increasing effort into my...

You're right - it is important to use the correct terminology - thanks for pointing this out and I've edited my original post. Since that post, further reading suggests (but is refuted by some and is therefore not conclusive) that the phantom pedalling issue may only happen just the once after...

And there is now a reply from the OSF writer 'mbrusa' on Endless Sphere (link). In short the posts says: ---------------------- Motor spinning without pedaling (phantom pedaling) is a known problem. It is rare and is also present in all previous versions of OSF for stock displays, only those...

I haven't a clue about Bosch motors, sorry. However, your not seeing a method 'Reply' to a post is strange. On my Windows PC there at least 3 ways of replying - what device/software are you using to view the forum? Your client software could be the issue rather than this lovely website?

That should be a laugh then Les - getting the video that is! I should think that if you raise the back wheel off the ground (suspended from a garage roof beam on a piece of rope or similar?) take 3 video clips of 1 - the VLCD6 display showing the screen with battery bars and being able to select...

There is a question around whether a faulty speed sensor will give problems (as in no assist) - opinions vary - so I've just been out on my TSDZ2 (VLCD6, 36V, 250W running OSF) to see what happens if I remove the wheel magnet: The system boots up and I can pedal off and assistance kicks in The...

Hi Les, There's a few possible lines of investigation mention in the post HERE The Hailong battery you are using - you didn't mention if it was a new one or used from somewhere else? Either way, do you have a way of monitoring the voltage at the time you engage 'walk assist' and ask for normal...

Hi Pumpalump, So how goes the TSDZ2 problem (resolution) - there are some of us dying to know how you're getting on?

I've now raised this issue on the Endless Sphere forum here.

A fair question but no, I haven't enabled that option. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a way to 'read back' what the configuration in the motor is (is there?) but I'm confident that I didn't enable that function If I had inadvertently enabled that function I'd have felt the effects during...

I've posted some of the info below in another part of the forum here to gain a wider audience - apologies for (partial) cross posting. I am running the OSF firmware v20.1C.1 (v20.1C.3 is suspended for the time being) I'd promised feedback if anything untoward happened and today it did in that...
