RadCity / Random motor failure Radcity 5+
November 11, 2023, 07:55:35 AM
Consistent problem. Random occurrence. Random solution. After ride, I store the bike in my garage. Next day the bike powers up and all displays and actions work but the motor is dead.  Within the next 12 to 24 hours the bike magically powers up for a ride.  The motor never faulters/dies while riding/traffic stops.  The bike fails about every fourth or fifth attempt to ride. After a few more episodes, I followed Rads on line checklist for solving this problem (disconnect battery, power drain, brake cables, tail light and hub cable). This technique works about 50% of the time. Letting the bike sit in the garage for 12 to 24 hours fixes the problem 50% of the time. Eventually I will damage the cable connectors. Please help.
