    wire location

    Also send pic #1 above to the supplier for advice.. if a reputable kit seller they should send out a replacement pdq on that evidence alone..

    wire location

    just isolate the loose wire with some tape and testing the bike system will have no detrimental effects other than aspects not connected correctly wont work ;)

    wire location

    hmm #1 with no power connected test continuity with a multimeter between the black (ground?) wire in the display plug? and the loose brown wire.. and fingers crossed for a beep ;) that indicates its a common ground connection. both the brake and throttle plugs look 1 wire short to me ...

    Yosepower kits.

    If a twist throttle is needed you can source the yose 350w kit battery base/controller and display which will not be f/w hobbled as its the 'international version'.. Or a 36v kt controller in the 'inside battery base' format could be sourced from a supplier like topbikekit, but the refit is a...

    Yosepower kits.

    If like my yose kit the only things you can change are the speed metric, either mph or kmh. And the wheel size the effect of which is a proportional difference in the speed displayed while the motor performs pretty much the same regardless.. However, its no big deal since the bike works :) I...

    Hailong mount plate compatibility.

    male and female terminal blocks can be bought for £5-10 from the usual suppliers so can be retrofitted to match as long as the base slide is compatible..

    Swifty Liberte Coppercell ES20 36V 7.26ah battery charger problems

    That explains how you misplaced the original charger.. hope your on the way to a full recovery.. can you confirm if the battery charges at all or wont charge ? if it charges but the fully charged voltage is 35v thats one thing and the batteries history of standing for years might explain...

    Swifty Liberte Coppercell ES20 36V 7.26ah battery charger problems

    Yes @Ghost1951 , But only charging to 50% however would require the battery to be so far out of balance that the battery wouldn't charge at all in the first place?? -Im confused now.. And fwiw the 2.2v value above was pulled from my rear as a suggested minimum viable voltage to consider...

    Swifty Liberte Coppercell ES20 36V 7.26ah battery charger problems

    Missed this in the OP, it charges, but not Fully!! DOH! if only charging upto 50% @brackb01 ? I take it thats going by the bike display or battery leds? use a multimeter on the battery output terminals for a real reading.. could be a dodgy led circuit board ?? but if the charger is stopping...

    Swifty Liberte Coppercell ES20 36V 7.26ah battery charger problems

    However IF the battery is just below the voltage the bms registers as too low? then a recharge should be fine.. the red flag is finding a group of cells with a significantly lower voltage than the others in the battery,, and it the group has dropped way too low.. thats bad news..

    Swifty Liberte Coppercell ES20 36V 7.26ah battery charger problems

    Not really, generally bike batteries are 18650 or larger cells spot welded together. and require SAFE procedures and equipment like a spot welder to work on at the cell level. - also considerations like the fact new cells will not match the charge discharge profile of older cells even if...

    Swifty Liberte Coppercell ES20 36V 7.26ah battery charger problems

    NOT AN EXPERT!!.. Did the battery sit for a long period without a charge? if so something like the bms itself could drain the battery or a single group of cells below the level its considered safe to recharge?? If your battery is at a low voltage you may need to open it up and confirm that...

    You need 2x @guerney 1 x for practice to learn how it works, range strength, spread etc.. so you can aim and hit with confidence if/when needed rather than fumble n miss.
