I will hopefully be able to temporarily override the file limit and attach it for you.

Magic Pie & Smart Pie Discussions / Re: Magic Pie 5 error Eb5
« Last post by Bikemad on April 06, 2025, 01:39:24 PM »Hi Soetie and
to the forum.
I suspect the "Eb5" is just a visual notification that the EBS is engaged due to a brake lever being stuck partially open, which can easily occur if you have plugged in the brake lever switch connector before the brake Bowden cables are physically connected to the levers and one of the levers is not fully released because the cable attachment pivot is preventing the lever from returning fully:
If the brake levers are definitely fully returned to the released position and you are still seeing the EbS notification, it could be due to a faulty brake switch or the wiring going to it.
Unplug both brake switch connectors and see if the EbS notification disappears. If it does, plug in the brake connectors one at a time to determine which one is causing the problem.

It's good to hear that you have been able to sort your throttle problem out.
If you attach the file to your original post it will be instantly available for anyone that wants it.

Plug everything into everything that matches plugs or has the same thing written on it. I haven’t got a “parking” plug on my controller and the KSI plugs don’t match so they’re not connected. Do not connect the key where the diagram tells you to. Only use that if you’re fitting a contactor and want an extra safety device. I’ll be fitting one at a later date.
Long and short of it is, it works !

« Last post by Johnculley on April 02, 2025, 08:37:20 PM »Thanks for allowing me in. I have just had a 10kw motor fitted to my boat, powered by 314ah 48v lifepo4. Add an EZkontroller and a TRC012 throttle. And that's where the problems began.
Downloaded the app to program the throttle. Followed the video I found for a the TRC010 throttle. Updated the app and the motor started spinning backwards. Panicked, pressed a"disable" button on the app. Motor didn't stop so I turned it off with the key and then had to wait around 3 hours before I could get the app to do anything. It kept saying "state motor error" (or something along those lines) which was a result of changing a setting whilst the motor was spinning.
I spent the free time talking to a couple of people who know more than I do and searching for any information I could find about the throttle and what the error message meant. There's literally nothing useful on the web about the throttle. I found state motor error (may have that wrong) but no instructions on how to make it go away.
eventually I got the app working and was able to press the same button and enable the "throttle reset enable" setting. Turned the controller back on and the motor started spinning again.
So I gave up and went home.
Got a manual for the throttle that evening from a friend, it didn't come with one. Saw that there was supposed to be a safety key. Hurrah. Problem solved,
Nope.
returned to the boat, armed with the throttle and controller manuals, found the safety key, pulled every plug out and started over. The engineer who had connected everything had made a total bollocks of it. Thought Id got everything connected, switched it all on. Nothing.
Made a 5v power supply to feed the throttle. Nothing.
Took the cover off the throttle to find the white cable had been cut and wasn't connected. Confirmed it had 5v on it, took the throttle to an electronics specialist for repair.
No joy from goldenmotor but they will be getting a bill for the repair.
The TRC012 manual has been attached for anyone who wants it.
