    Color code of wires on a Luna 1000w motor

    Hey I asked this question in a different format in the question and answer section. I think I might have gotten an answer but I couldn't find it anywhere. I asked Luna but they had no Idea. So I will ask again. Does anyone know the color of wire assignment coming out of this Luna motor. I plan on hooking up an Infineon controller and of coarse need to match the phase wires and hall sensor wires correctly. It seems someone would have done this before seeing Luna sells similar controllers seperate from their plug & play kits. If you already replied I apoligise for my ignorance. I am pretty mechanically inclined but pretty new to the Ebike sphere of existence and posting on forums. I could very well be posting incorrectly and that is why I could not find the reply.

    The color coding normaly is the same regardless of brand. Well this is the norm.

    The main thing when testing the controller is to have the bike ready to test, prior with wheel raised before powering the bike. If the combos are wrong then the motor will shudder, or the motor will run in reverse. There's a diagram on the Web that shows different hall sensor combinations if either of these happen.

      Thanks, Greatly appreciated. As I stated I asked Luna and they didn't have a clue. One of their tech's even accused me of trying to get them to do the outrageous thing of doing my research for me on a custom build. I just thought they should know the color code of the wires coming out of their own motor. My first Ebike a cheap low power Chinese model assembled by an American co. A low power 300w 24v, but it gave me the bug. I had a problem with the motor (under warrantee) and they sent me the color to wire designations so I could troubleshoot the hall sensors. So I just figured......anyway thanks again, I still have the sheet they sent me.

      To Rodney64: you had put a nice color graph of motor wiring (I presume) in your comment to my post. I copied it every witch way and I can't get it big enough to read. Could you please tell me where to find it on the web (I used the address watermarked on the page & come up empty) or email it to me. Thanks I appreciate all the help I can get.

    I see you have already been on endless sphere .
    Follow Fletchers thread. You're not going to find a diagram for what you're asking for. Its trial and error with the possibility of damaging components.

      Thanks for the reply. I have looked at those threads (and many more) and am setting up to test out all the phase and hall sensor leads. I have even purchased a 0-60v DC power supply ($110.00) in order not to damage components. I have ran all the motor and controller wires to two different blocks and when I get everything in will start doing what others have suggested to figure it all out.

        You may have this already but if you are doing trial and error keep a chart of combinations tried. The small black and red wires can be soldered together as they are always the same between motor and controller. Beyond that you have 3 phase and 3 hall wires for a total of 36 combinations. Keep a chart to track and work out a progression so you don't repeat combinations. There are actually 3 combinations that work with the motor spinning forward so it is not quite as bad as it sounds. Grin's version of the infineon controller has programming that figures out the hall sensors automatically. hook them up any way and then just test the phase wires. It reduces the number of possible combinations from 36 to 6. Don't accidentally short any wires and the whole process is pretty safe and you won't burn anything out.
        Do something that is good for your health, good for your wallet and good for the planet - get an e-bike.
