whoosh sirocco speed limiter

[roadstar]

Hi,

just fixed a second hand Whoosh Sirocco - took me ages and it was a faulty throttle - so very please about that. It's a 2010-2011 model and I wonder if the controller has a speed limiter? There is a double grey wire with a plug on the end which plugs into it self by a single wire with a separate plug which plugs into the double wire. I unplugged this wire and the motor runs ok but not tried this on the road yet.

Incidentally I say it's a grey wire but I'm color blind and curious.


Regards

the sirocco does not have a speed limiter.
The pair of white or grey wires is the learning cable.
Leave them joined.

Hi, thanks for that but what does a learning cable do?

the controller has a learning mode, when it changes the sequence of the phase wires and detects the resulting speed and EMF voltage. Once it finds out the best combination, it saves it to memory. You never have to do this because the controller is already correctly programmed at the factory, unless support people ask you to. You unplug the learning wire to put the controller into learning mode, turn up the throttle, once the motor has started, switch off and reconnect.

Thanks, I'll reconnect it. The controller is new (so may not be programmed?), I thought my problems were initially with the controller so I replaced this but it was the throttle.

you see the three motor phase wires: yellow, blue, green. The controller is already programmed for you to connect to the same colours on the motor side.

Thanks again, I've reconnected it - I'll leave well alone. The bike working so that's great
