So I replaced my Sabvoton 80a controller and ran my hall test and everything was fine. Took a test ride and all seemed good.
This morning I was going to ride to work and about a mile into the ride I turned it up to level 4. The motor started to jerk a little bit and then the bike completely shut off. It wouldn’t turn back on at all.
I unplugged the battery and plugged it back, the bike turned on. As soon as I hit the accelerator it shut off again.
Checked wires and everything seemed fine, went to try the unplug and replug again… this time I got a little sparky spark arc so I assume something is shorted. :/ left it unplugged and walked home.
I just got home after work and rechecked all the wiring. Found a single wire came out of one of the connectors for the motor. So I switched to the other connector. Double/triple checked all the other wires and plugs and found no issues. Went to plug the battery, heard a very light pop and sure enough, nothing turns on…
(Positive sides of battery plugs are black from arcing)
Am I completely screwed?
Please help
