Electric Bike Malfunction - Simple Troubleshooting

1. What to do when the electric bike has no power during use?

(1) Check if the battery has any issues with the output terminals.

(2) Check the power lock to see if it is functioning properly.

 

2. What to do when the electric bike has power but does not move?

(1) Check if the battery output of the electric bike is normal. If the output is too low, it indicates a faulty battery that needs to be replaced.

(2) Disconnect the brake cable segment and check if the bike moves. If it does, it means the brake is faulty and needs to be replaced.

(3) Smell the controller to check for any burnt odor.

(4) Inspect the motor. Poor contact with the motor carbon brushes can also cause the bike to not move smoothly.

 

3. Electric bike motor issues

(1) For brushed motors, use a multimeter to check for continuity. If there is continuity, it indicates that the motor is functioning properly. If there is no continuity, it indicates a faulty motor.

(2) If the motor produces no sound, gets stuck, or experiences resistance when accelerating, it may have a problem.
