    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    I think a lot of dog lovers would really love it. Your "blog" reminded me of books like "Marley and Me" and "The Art of Racing in The Rain." Both have heartwarming stories of the love people have for their dogs as well as the depth and profound sadness when they pass. What happened with you and...

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    Hey Michael! I wanted to thank you again. I used the solder-seal wire and it worked really well. Long story short, the new sensor is working just fine. I was a little nervous when I cut the cable of the old sensor because at first I thought it was only one wire, but it was actually two sets of...

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    That's tough... I've gone through a couple of year-long disabilities, one due to an injury to my hand due to being "doored" and the other due to back. Both lasted nearly a year. We also lost our beloved Yorkie Guinness3/2022. He was nearly 16 and he just wore out. It still feels fresh and...

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    That makes sense, thanks for the tip. I'll make sure to tie a knot. I looked at the Haisstronica connectors and I'm sold! They look to be a perfect solution and also appeal pretty intuitive to use. I particularly like how they are weatherproof as I am not averse to riding in the rain. Just...

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    Well I opened up the Cycle Analyst, which by the way is 4" x 2," so pretty small, The red arrows are pointing to the speed sensor cable itself. The cable is split off into one for speed and one for ground, so definitely two wires with an outer wrap. you can see where they go right near that...

    That was my thought too, thanks. I'm hoping I can get the new one entirely inside the CA. I don't get the new speed sensor until next week, but I'm going to open up the CA today to see what I'm dealing with.

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    I like both of those methods, thanks. And I’m fine with soldering. My first job 42 years ago was to assemble electronic models for machines that serviced catapult tractors. I only did it for less than a year, but I do remember some of the basics. I ordered the new sensor from GRIN. To me, it...

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    It’s not damaged, and no wire has ever fallen off. I am 100% certain on that. It’s always been one cable from the CA to the sensor as indicated by the red arrow below: : BUT I suspect it is probably one cable with two wires based upon what you are saying. I’d have to open up the cycle analyst...

    Thanks. Question: In looking at mine, it only appears to be one wire from the speed sensor to the cycle analyst, but it is not a skinny wire either. Keep in mind this was made in 2010 by Grin for Stokemonkey. Very early CA design.

    Thanks! I only see one cable coming from the CA

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    Thanks! I like the simple approach so I will just look into ordering a new sensor from Grin. I was thinking along those lines already, but I like your other suggestions too. Much appreciated!

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    Thanks Amberwolf! I cut the sensor itself from the fork and passed the magnet over it in as many different directions that I could with my hand. Nothing registers. I'm guessing I need a new speed sensor then? If so, what would you recommend? Warning in advance, my knowledge here is pretty...

    Speed sensor not picking up magnet

    Hey guys! I have an original stokemonkey set-up on my Xtracycle conversion since early 2014. I bought it used from a forum member named pdf. It has worked fine for years, in fact the original LifeP04 battery still has about 80% capacity. Problem know is all of a sudden, my speed sensor does not...
