A small plea for help:
I excitedly assembled my first ebike kit yesterday, a bmsbattery Q11 48V 1kw kit, and attached the battery-- a calibike 48V 15Ah battery-- and whalah! Nothing. No power, no sound, nothing when I gave a little twist on the throttle.
I'd appreciate any suggestions for figuring out what's wrong. I'm no engineer, and struggle with deeper twists of the electrical conversations I read here, but can muddle through with some assistance.
There were no instructions with the kit or the battery, but all the connectors seemed to work themselves out--each one was different. I did have to splice different connectors onto the controller to match the ones one the battery. I charged the battery overnight, checked the voltage, and checked the connections again. Still, nothing.
I did see the thread with a user having problems with this battery, but am unsure if that is something I need to consider, and besides, there was no resolution on the thread. I also have not yet bought a display, so perhaps I am unable to set the controller properly? Also unsure what the little switch on the battery controls, because current doesn't vary when you flip the switch.
Both battery and kit seem to be well known on the forum, but here are their links, below. Thanks for any and all suggestions.
