Here's my support website link to the downloadable eZee Technical Support Manualaccording to flecc a company had the foresight years ago. Nice to see they give the diagrams out too. Wish the rest would follow.

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 is more than enough to deal with the costs of adjusting to give fault diagnostic abilities and thats being on the very expensive side. Atleast these days its standard in most mid range and above bikes and according to flecc a company had the foresight years ago. Nice to see they give the diagrams out too. Wish the rest would follow.
And Onbike are not to far from me if they dont know bout eZee bikes i unno who does .!Hi David,
The eZee controller as fitted to both eZee bikes and kits has a self diagnostic LED indicator that flashes if there is a problem, the number of flashes indicates the type of problem.
They don't include the controller internals since agents also use that manual and keep replacement controllers in stock. It probably wouldn't be possible or economic for them to diagnose and repair them anyway.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.
No offence taken Dreamer everyone is entitled to their opinion.Cheers flecc.

Some things best kept hidden... everyday a learning day, time for some reading.
Hope I didn't offend you shemozzle999. Wasn't put in the best way looking back.
Not mentioning names, there are one or two on here! Some of the requests for 'help' can only reasonably be answered by saying 'Don't touch anything. Go straight to your dealer'. E-bike electrics can be seriously dangerous in unskilled hands, or more specifically, the batteries can. A fire or an explosion can be close by if an unprotected short circuit occurs. Indeed, the systems are all low voltage - but with an almost unlimited current available, just as in a car, you could burn out the whole electrical system and have a fire on your hands - possibly in your hallway.I suppose that is a good point in a world where people will sue at the drop of a hat. It is easy to forget that there are idiots out there.

That's apart from the daft and comical but still dangerous things that can happen - like sudden full power when you're tinkering and not expecting it, and certainly not aboard the bike.

I agree, that's just like the setup eZee have. The diagnostic indication is given and their recommendation where appropriate is to change the offending component. For example, the replacement controller comes prewired with plug in connectors that can't be swapped, so even an electrical novice can change it.When i talk about diagnostic testing on e bikes i mean the same as what i replaced the other day in my van light comes on in dash fault with cooling system plugged in diagnostic tester found that it was a faulty sensor so bought new one from Ford .
eZee have the legal requirement covered too, since they issue a comprehensive User Manual as well as the open access Tech Manual. Page 5 covers the battery warnings and I've linked to the the User Manual via my eZee support website below, though my copy is a bit out of date.That was a good example of how a manual should look flecc. I noticed there was no mention regarding the dangers involved with these high output batteries. I would have thought there would be a legal requirement to put a warning in the manual or on the battery?
m. Would be nice to have a standard though as there is little excuse not to have a diagnostic feature in all controllers. Right whos going to tell the Chinese!

The eZee principal Wai Won Ching isn't a native Chinese, he's a Singaporean which may account for his relative diligence in these respects. He's also a keen long distance rider of his own bikes and has been engaged in riding the Silk Route in stages in recent years.
