Hello, I have an ebike kit from ebikekit.com. I have an older version of this kit https://www.ebikekit.com/collection...heavy-duty-e-bikekit-br-no-battery-rear-wheel. I broke the original display on a fall and I need to replace it. The problem is that I can only find a 6-pin display on the kit's website but it is listed as compatible with kits from 2017 or newer but my kit is from 2015. Additionally, it is overpriced at $142. Can anyone point me to a 6-pin display? Otherwise, my current plan is to buy a 5-pin display from aliexpress and convert the 6-pin connector on the controller by soldering a 5-pin connector. But I'm not sure if it would work. By converting the cable from 6-pin to 5-pin I would leave one of the wires unused. I'm not sure if that would prevent nonessential information from getting to the controller like the speedometer or leave out more crucial information, making the display unusable. Any thoughts or advice?
