yes could be an electrical problem as that is exactly what it sounds like, like a grinding and the gears aren’t catching eachother but i will try that also tomorrow before i cycle to work.

Now if it is an electrical problem i know absolutely nothing about fixing bike batteries so should i buy a new motor completely as i have called up 5!! sounding bike shops and none of them work on bafang batteries as they say they cant do anything to do with there internal diagnostics.

Is there any special bafang fixers haha or am i screwed lol, and again thank you for all the help seriously !!
It's quite easy to check the motor connectors, which are under the finned cover, so you have to remove that first. That exposes the controller. While you're there, check that no water has got in, the battery connector is OK and the big capacitor doesn't have a bulge in the top. Any of those things could cause your problem.

If it's the same phenomenon, I've experienced it with my Bafang BBS01B mid-drive, on the very rare occasion when I'm down to lithium fumes at very low battery a sort of whirry scritching....
That's normal as both my bbs motors do the same when battery is nearing empty, it's a more noticeable way to alert you to a low battery than relying on the display.
