TSDZ2 36V 250W Stopped Working

[Old Bob]

Hi, I can`t find anyone with this problem on the internet so hope someone can help.
I fitted a TSDZ2 36V 250W motor with little trouble & used it a few weeks with the
cadence on hills not working to my liking. Thought I would try amending the firmware.
I used TSDZ2-Smart-Ebike-1-master then Java Configurator then Compiled & Flashed
Basic Settings, Assistance settings then Advanced Settings from proven settings.
This was brilliant for a month & well pleased until motor, display & battery
stopped working. The battery when disconnected lights up, it is a 36v 15ah
Hailong downslope & measures 42v at the leads but when connected to the
motor every thing is dead, the battery does not light up. I fitted a new controller
& flashed it again, it lasted two weeks with the new firmware but then went dead.
I don`t know whether it is the new firmware but it seems to match my motor &
battery. It seems I enjoy messing but not really competent. I hope someone can
help. Sorry for long post.
Since I wrote this I read that v20.1C.3 which I used has been suspended & v20.1C.1 recommended.
Can anyone tell me how to find & configure this as I was extremely impressed with the
firmware till my bike stopped working.

Thanks Todd
I have a bit of time to make sure I know what
I`m doing while I wait for a replacement controller
again. My display is VLCD5 so I think I need to use
a slightly different fork. I also don`t know how to
open the correct file in the Java Configurator which
was ideal for my 36v 250amp TSDZ2 with 36v 15ah
battery. I only do a few miles MTB social riding but
now need the motor to keep up with younger riders
on long uphill climbs.
Regards
Bob

oops, sorry here is the VLCD5 version
https://github.com/emmebrusa/TSDZ2-Smart-EBike-1/tree/v20.1C.1-VLCD5-VLCD6-XH18

This is the recommended version, the newest version has been suspended.

Hi kasperven21mano
What you`re getting sounds very good
It sounds like my battery would give
you 56miles. Are you using the motor
as bought or new firmware. I found
that with the stock firmware on steep
hills, in my lowest gear, my cadence slowed
enough for assistance to stop & setting
off on hills was difficult. The new firmware
was brilliant until my motor stopped which
I now believe was due to the controller not
being able to handle the latest firmware,
although it`s too good to give up on. I am
going to keep trying till I have a stable &
reliable motor to suit my needs.
