Only you can see what's touching. Could be anything. You haven't given us anything to go on. Which kit/motor? Which wheel? Some photos would help.

Moulded connectors are great until you need to test something. That's why I always recommend controllers with block connectors. These are things that could be wrong with your system: 1. Motor connector not in far enough. It must go all the way to the marked line, not just in tight, 2. Damaged...

That's why I made post #7.

Time to eat a bit of humble pie!

I did in post #2, where I explained this, but none of you took any notice!

The standard settings allow 3, 5 or 9 levels plus throttle. 9 is a complete waste of time. Three levels and throttle is more than enough. That would be level 1 about 60w to 100w, level 2 about 250w and level 3 max power. At any time, you can get a burst of power with the throttle. the more...

G3 handlebars. plastic with Knight Rider LEDs in the plastic!

So he might be disapppointed when he buys something, then finds it doesn't fit? You know that Raleigh bikes don't have the same sizes as modern bikes for headsets and seat posts? Even their wheels can be 2" different in diameter to modern ones with the same size written on the tyre in inches...

Yes, it'll be no different to riding with a rucksack that has 7kg in it. You can try that now to see what it's like.

Do they fit to Raleigh bikes?

What sort of connectors do you have on the controller? Can you show them?

I had a bearing rusted on like that. I got a piece of 2" wide 1/4" steel plate and ground it to a wedge with my angle grinder, then I ground out a slot for the axle and bashed in in with a lump hammer. it only took a couple of blows before it started moving and a couple more until it was off...

The cheapest one will probably work the best. If it's only the magnet disc that's broken, that's the only bit you need to replace. They come as a matched pair, but just put the sensor asside and fit the disc as long as you can find one with the same size disc. Avoid 12 magnet ones because of...

You didn't get any answers. There's a fair chance that none of those things that other people have fit your bike. What that guy said about cheap bikes is complete biggoted crap. Some cheap bikes are very good, being more reliable and having lower maintenance costs than more expensive bikes. Go...

Test it, then you'll know.

A thumb throttle is much better on a bicycle. You'll be using the pedal sensor most of the time anyway.

Polystyrene will be fine. Make sure it's packed so that nothing can move, and make sure the wires can't rub on anything.

You don't need to open up the throttle. You check it's function by electrical measurement. They're very difficult to open and there's a good chance to break something. You should only do that if it fails the elctrical test and you have some dort of affection for that particular one. What ever...

It's on the throttle connector, probably next to the red and black wires.

Did he have big lips and was he covered in dark hair, and did his knuckles reach the ground?
