Hi everyone. Thanks in advance for your assistance. Have a Blix Sol cruiser bike which has stopped powering the hub motor. The original issue = the display unit went dead blank and no longer controlled the bike's functions. Here is what I've done to troubleshoot so far:
1) Battery: AOK
2) Replaced display with new display from Blix : no signal, no life, still blank.
3) Replaced display with new after-market display from Amazon: display showed power, showed battery, did not control the PAS, did not control any power to the hub motor, (yes, config'd to 48V), showed error code as no response from controller.
4) Ordered new controller from Blix. New Blix controller ($160) + new Blix display with toggles buttons and throttle thumb button ($160) >> showed signs of life, displayed battery level, allowed changes to PAS modes 1-5, but no reaction from the hub motor either via pedal stroke or throttle input.
5) Ordered new Blix wiring harness ($20). New wiring harness added to new controller and new display did not solve lack of PAS / throttle control to hub motor.
6) Triple checked all connections and condition of all wires. Even added dielectric grease to connections. Still no response from hub motor.
7) Checked the pedal sensor. Seems AOK..
8) ...Blix now recommends buying new rear wheel assembly including new hub motor ($350). !!!
This is getting ridiculous. Wondering is someone can recommend other potential areas of failure? Or things to test and remedy? Suggestion much appreciated. The bike is in great mechanical condition and we would hate to just scrap it. Thanks.
