My display reads backwards. Just did a motor swap and when im going fast display read like i'm going slow and vice versa? Any indication on what this could be?

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback. I finally figured it out, my motor is bad. Any idea on where to purchase a new 750 W rear hub motor for that bike?

Thanks,

Yeah, Just with I had something to do some trial and error with before I start splicing wires. And I'm sorry to hear about your dealing with RAD. I've had a few issues with my bike so far and each time they've been fairly quick responding, they even picked up the phone. Unfortunately that's not the case this time, will let you know what the say if and when they come around.

Thanks,

Yes, there's a small red light under the controller next to the sprocket that lights up I'm assuming it for the PAS. When I first activate the throttle it gives the bike a small push and you see the wattage go up as well then back down when power dies so its getting power back there just not consistently. 

I bought a 5 pack of fuses and went through each one just in case, nothing.

Update, I was looking at the cable terminals and the one that goes from the battery to the controller looks a little burnt and frayed on the end. Hard to tell as is has a cover. Wiggled it some and made sure it was making contact, didn't work.

Also, going on day 5 with no response from RAD, starting to think they closed or something. Anyone here anything?

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks again for the responses.

Are there any service/repair locations for rad power bikes in Miami Florida anyone knows about.

Thank you in advance.

No, still good. Also changed the 5 Amp fuse just in case and nothing. I went though the break connections as well as stated in a few other threads in the forum and nothing.

Hi there,

I have a rad rover V5 and when I engage the throttle I get very little power at the start and goes dead soon after (dead as in not throttle response). At the beginning the watts go up and when it dies they go down to zero while throttle is still engaged. I've checked all connections and all is good on that end. The batter holds power and charges and the lights on the bike work as well. There is no error code as well.

It started this weekend when I was riding and throttle power suddenly went dead. Upon examination I had blown the 40 amp fuse in the battery, I replaced it (with another new 40 amp) and hasn't worked since.

I've also tried reaching out to rad via their help desk/support emails and even called but have not gotten a response in 4 days. I've had several issue with this bike (computer went bad and broken front fork) and they responded fairly quick. Not sure what's going on now?

Has anyone had this problem? Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
