    Shorted my CA?

    Ugh. Nothing. I can see voltage coming in, but it seems to disappear pretty quick. I don't see anything on the 10v or anywhere else for that matter. Guess it's the MCU?

    Shorted my CA?

    10v, GND, Dir, RPM, Trq.

    Shorted my CA?

    Thanks @amberwolf . It was the PAS cable (was adding on a voltage regulator and new connector). I don't see any signs of damage but you may be right that it was the MCU, which, if so, is a total gut punch since it was the last step before I was ready to go. This is what I get for rushing at the...

    Shorted my CA?

    Stupidly clipped a cable (was switching out the PAS cable with a different connector) while my CA was still on and now it won't turn on. I'm assuming I blew a fuse or something but can't seem to find anything when I open the PCB. Any tips?

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    This is really helpful. Thank you so much @amberwolf !!

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    No idea, it just stopped working one day. It doesn't power on, despite having power to it. I checked connectivity all along the cabling and to the controller when it went out to make sure it wasn't something there.

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    Uffda. Both of those things make sense. First, forgot that the display required a passcode to unlock. The fact that I can't enter that (because the display is dead) may be why I can't activate the motor but still have (some) power. Your point on the ghost voltage got me thinking maybe I...

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    @amberwolf any thoughts on next steps/what might be going on? At this point, I can get CA wired with the shunt but despite sending voltage to the throttle wire, I'm not seeing any response from either motor. My default configuration before the display failed should be limiting anything and my...

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    Super helpful. The throttle is not powered by the display, but they share a ground (on the cable on the right). Wiring the throttle into the CA, I can see that the grey wire (throttle - in their diagram) is the ThO (that is, the input voltages make sense, ranging from 1-4.2 v when actuating the...

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    Wow, really appreciate the quick and thorough response. The controller is original (technically there are two, since the D-Class is dual motor, but the second is slaved to the first using a three way switch to toggle power between them). There's not documentation on what voltage the controller...

    Wiring CA v3 to generic controller

    Hey gang, Trying to wire according to this setup to my Ariel Rider D-Class controllers (display died so decided this was the time to upgrade). Have a new CA v3 that has an adapter from the W8 to DPS, connected to the Grin shunt. Pulling the ThO over to what appears to be the ThO on the Ariel...

    New display (or at least new look and feel)?

    Awesome, thanks for all the info! Yeah, the Cycle Analyst seems like a really good option.

    New display (or at least new look and feel)?

    Hey gang, Have an LED display that I'd like to either replace or reprogram for a bit more old school feel (think either digital clock or dos prompt vibes). Picture of current display attached. So, question: can I either change the display format on this display somehow and if not anybody know...

    Second battery (52v + 48v)?

    Totally agree with khorse, which is why I'd never buy that thing was asking about folks experience with DIY approaches. Calab, not a big deal, but I'm not a huge fan of having exposed connectors easily accessible, especially given that I ride in a lotta heavy rain. Just means I'll have to...
