Title: Intermittent Power / Motor RadCity 5+
Post by: Franklueck on October 04, 2024, 03:18:41 PM
I am experiencing intermittent power loss of the motor, symptoms are the bike runs great for a few miles then then the motor stops responding, All lights and controller still powered up but the throttle os Power assist do not work.
  I tried disconnecting the brake connections with no change, tried checking all electrical connections good but if I disconnect the Battery then reconnect the battery the motor starts working again although now it happens frequently
My bike does have a few miles (3400) and other than that the bike runs great

Does anyone else have this problem and do you think its the Controller or the Motor?

Thanks

from the posts i have read it is the controller. 

Area13 should have an upgraded version.  it will give you a little extra power. 
reduces your 2 screens to 1 color display.

Were you able to fix the power loss? Mine does the same thing.
