Hi,
I'm a new BBSHD/ 52V owner in the UK, hoping to use the bike mainly offroad. I've had the new motor kit on the bike for about an hour, and at first attempt at reprogramming I've got into trouble and am now sorely wishing I'd just left it stock.
This all started when I bought a programming cable off eBay. It connected up fine, then when halfway through updating the second tab (pedal assist) it lost its connection with the controller. It cannot get connection now, and the bike is showing error 30 and going nowhere.
So I cannot connect to the Bafang software or the reflash software supplied by Golden Motor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4KdSIWpR48, which gets to the final stage (writing changes back to the controller) then says connection error, and I have the error code 30 which means the bike is dead.
What are my options? Preferably not horrifically expensive ones. The bafang kit has done almost nothing on the bike- so everything is brand new. Could I just have a faulty programming cable that worked OK at the start? But has it created issues that a better cable now won't resolve?
If I can sort the error code and get the bike running as standard, Despite the fact I'm now justifiably terrified of going anywhere near it with a programming cable, I'd still ideally like to be able to change the settings to make it more responsive for singletrack riding. (get throttle working on PAS0, reduce the number of signals to get PAS working again after I've actuated the brake sensors). Also, if possible get it working above its 28 amp limit- (I understand they used to go to 30 amps and are safe to do so) - and generally optimize it better where possible for my 52Volt battery.
I've seen mention in various places of 'error 30 code due to attempting to reprogram controller', which is clearly what has happened to me, so I'm hoping people on here may have some answers. Is this a common thing? Are there any solutions? Have I fried my controller already?
If I bought a new stock controller and left it alone would that be likely to fix the issue?
I was so excited plugging in the cables yesterday and resetting all the values to my carefully researched levels. Was really looking forward to my next ride on a better setup bike. If I'd only known that 5 minutes later I'd have potentially murdered my brand new controller...
