    Manuell switch, rated 48v used with 96v battery ok?

    Yes. Charging The controller up with a 100 Ohm resistor in the precharge circuit will keep the contacts from welding together. This has worked fine on my 96V bike. You just have to remember to use the precharge circuit before switching on the controller. Can't leave the precharge circuit on when...

    Does anyone know what type this connector is called?

    Can't you just cut the cables in the middle and then swap ends and reconnect?

    Need advice on what to do.

    If you pay attention to what wire goes where, it's not all that hard to do. Just need a cheap soldering iron and some connectors from HobbyKing. Give it a go. It's fun.

    What shall we do with a 3D printer...early in the morning!

    It sounds to me that you are having a problem with the 1st layer. This will solve all your problems. It's not as complicated as he makes it sound but he is trying to cover all the steps. He knows what he is talking about. This is just a section of his calibration series...
