Title: Radwagon won't turn on
Post by: curly rider on November 04, 2021, 07:01:21 PM
Hi,

I went on my morning ride to drop the kiddo today, about 10 miles. Got home, turn the bike off and battery off.
When I got back to the bike 2 hours later, tried to turn on the bike, nothing happened, screen stay blank... I checked all the connections and all looked good (especially since the bike was working 2 hours earlier).

Reached out to Rad, they say it's likely the controller but it's back ordered so no prediction when they can ship one... I'm desperate since it's my main way of transportation - Any advice on what to do next ?

Thanks,

Curly Rider

You can pick up an aftermarket display/controller:

I know rad might've said the controller, but also ask about a replacement display if you can get one. I've observed screen failures here on the forums with much greater frequency, matching the symptoms you've described.
