Hi I started making the display for https://opensourceebike.github.io/
However I gave up as I have zero time - I think the nRF52840 may be dead.
Anyway everything else I think is fine.
Includes
SPI OLED (no flicker that you get with i2c)
possibly dead nRF52840 possibly not

Hi it came to me in a box, already faulty
I was fixing it on the bench.
So the speedometer was disconnected.
I tested it using a chain whip and one crank to get some torque. When assist kicked in it nearly jumped off the bench. Not recommended.
I'm going to fit it to a bike soon
Two checks:
Does walk mode work? (Turn on in settings, then press and hold -)
-if not then the motor/driver may be at fault
Do you get torque sensor readings in the diagnostic menu? There's an initial reading and a love reading.
-if not the torque sensor may be at fault
If neither work, then...
Right sorted now.
I got similar readings to stancecoke.
However I found the top pin in the connector to the display was bent.
This is the transmit pin, so no wonder data was not going from controller to screen. Data clearly went the other way as walk mode worked.
Anyway, fixed now! Rookie...
Amazing thankyou for this!
I'm sure I have a USB scope (just got to find it) and will compare mine.
This is a really fascinating device, I have a degree in electronic engineering and am very impressed with the clever design.
Thanks for that.
I will see if I can lay my hands on an oscilloscope, as it would be interesting to see the signals on a working system. I just used a basic multimeter, as you say the subtleties may be lost.
Seems such a waste to replace the whole torque sensor
unit for a 50p circuit....
I have a TSDZ2 (orginal, with original software) that works on walk mode.
Doesn't work on pedal assist
TE and TE1 in the hidden menu on vlcd5 always read 00000
I measured AC voltage on controller side coil to be 0.7v and chainring side 0.6v
Torque sensor body is not damaged or cracked
