Good evening yall,
So i took off my DC converter to check if it can run at 72v. After putting everything back together I decided to check if everything is working at 60v. So i turn the bike on and... well I guess some thermal paste must have gotten on the pcb because I hear a BBZZZFFFF and smoke comes out of the DC converter. So i go and put a different one on and this is where it gets interesting... Lights,signals,breaks all seem to work. The voltage on the dash aligns with my DMM reading but my speedo readout is constantly accelerating and caps out at 80km/h. Even the odometer goes up and quickly I may add since I'm apparently ripping down the freeway. Also my throttle does not work and when the bike is off the dash light is always on not displaying numbers with half the brightness. I tried with just hooking up a 12v battery as well with the same results.
I'm sure I wired everything back correctly. I replaced the two fuses coming from the DC converter too. The controller appears to be fine. All the plugs and ports are clean. This bike is practically new. Any ideas on what it could be guys? Here's the pictures and yea I did make my own DC converter using a 12v 2A adapter but 2A isn't enough to brake and have lights it seems. I've also included the wiring diagram if it helps. Thanks for the input in advance.
Keep on riding brothers!
