I haven't found an answer to this searching thru the forum so I'll ask it here... Does anyone know how to hack the Cruise Control on the Crystalyte 40A Analog Controller so you can USE IT WITHOUT the Cruise Control Unit (CCU) that mounts on the handlebar? I just want to use a simple momentary switch.
I don't like the way that CCU looks on the handlebar. I'm trying to keep my ebike stealthy looking and that It's big CCU with it's red, green, cyan, black, and takes up too much room on the handlebars and calls out unwanted attention that extra electronics have been added to the bike.
I'd rather use a simple, small, hidden, momentary lever switch that I epoxied to the underside of the handlebar (next to the brake lever) on my ebikes that use BMC controllers. When I get to speed I just tap that lever switch to set the cruise control speed. Then tap it again to release. That's all I want and need from the cruise control. I don't need the "+" and "-" controls to increment the speed up or down, and I don't need any fancy LED light telling me that the cruise control is on.
Can anyone tell me if I can use a simple momentary switch like this on the Crystalyte controller?
