Regen not working on NEW BAC controller
« on: December 31, 2014, 07:55:39 AM »
Hi folks,
I have a 901 kit from 2010, with external controller' still going strong.
My controller got stolen (don't ask).
I got A new external (BAC-281p) controller and wired it.
All works well except for the regen braking that stopped working.
Any ideas ??
Thank's and a Happy new year !

Hi Kobi, if the brake switches are still causing the motor to cut out when the brake levers are pulled it will probably need the regen brake level adjusting using the USB programming lead and the correct software.

If the motor does not cut out when the brake levers are pulled, you could have a problem with the wiring of the brake switches.
