Yes, that's right, then you can change the connector to take all three wires for a neater installation.chvidgov.bc.ca said:Thanks for the info...I've got one too, and I didn't know how to hook up the three wires from the sensor to the two wires for the ebrake coming from the controller. So I guess I can just solder the red wire from the ebrake sensor to the same point where the throttle red is soldered to the controller red wire (for throttle), right near the controller.
The colours are unusual. The red is 5v, yellow is the 0v and the blue is the signal. So, red to red, sensor yellow to controller black, sensor blue to controller brake yellow.knighty said:just done mine... but I must be doing it wrong
I've got red blue and yellow coming from the brake sensor thingie
controller has black and yellow
I connected the
red to 5v from throttle
blue to black out of controller
yellow to yellow out of controller
but like that, the ebrake cut off is on all the time
the little led on the brake sensor comes on with the red and blue connected... which made me think they were right ?
any idea where I've gone wrong?
You'd need additional electronics. The HWBS connects the signal wire to ground when the brake operates, so you could use it to switch on a relay or transistor that's connected to a 5v supply to get it high. Why do you want it high?MAGICPIE3FOCUSPOWER said:How can I made this sensor output is high when braking?
DIY_turbo said:I took a look at the detailed specification sheethttps://www.bmsbattery.com/attachment.php?id_attachment=44. I was wondering if angine had tried to put the sensor right after the leaver and connect to the CA. Is it feasible to connect 2 brakes sensors together, so if any of the brakes are applied, the signal wire is shorted?
hsors said:Does anyone know what is this part that BMSbattery calls "Hidden Wire Break Sensor" ? (http://www.bmsbattery.com/accessory/459-hwbs-hidden-wire-brake-sensor.html)
I asked if this is replacing the brake grip and they answered "this is different"...
Thanks,
