DYU Y16 Ebike Throttle to Controller Communication Wire

1. Introduction

This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of the DYU Y16 Communication Wire. This component is designed to connect the throttle to the controller on compatible electric bicycles, specifically the DYU Y16 Ebike and JETSON Haze Folding Electric Bike Bolt Pro. Please read this manual thoroughly before attempting any installation or maintenance.

2. Setup and Installation

Proper installation of the communication wire is crucial for the safe and correct functioning of your e-bike's throttle system. Always prioritize safety during this process.

2.1 Safety Precautions

• Always turn off the e-bike and disconnect the battery before beginning any installation or maintenance.
• Ensure the e-bike is stable and cannot move unexpectedly.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves, if necessary.
• If you are unsure about any step, consult a qualified e-bike technician.

2.2 Installation Steps

1. Locate Existing Wire: Identify the existing communication wire connecting your e-bike's throttle to its controller. This wire typically runs along the handlebars and frame.
2. Disconnect Old Wire: Carefully disconnect the existing wire from both the throttle unit and the controller. Note the orientation and type of connectors.
3. Prepare New Wire: Uncoil the new DYU Y16 communication wire. Observe the two distinct connectors: a 6-pin rectangular connector and a 5-pin circular connector.





4. Connect to Throttle: Connect the appropriate end of the new communication wire to the throttle unit. Ensure the connector is fully seated and secure.
5. Connect to Controller: Connect the other end of the new communication wire to the e-bike's controller. Again, ensure a firm and secure connection.
6. Route and Secure: Carefully route the new wire along the e-bike frame, ensuring it does not interfere with moving parts (e.g., wheels, pedals, steering) and is not subject to pinching or abrasion. Use cable ties or existing cable guides to secure it.
7. Verify Connections: Double-check all connections to ensure they are tight and correctly aligned.
8. Test Functionality: Reconnect the battery and turn on the e-bike. Test the throttle response in a safe, open area at low speed before full operation.

3. Operating the Communication Wire

The communication wire is a passive component that facilitates the electrical connection between your e-bike's throttle and controller. It does not require direct user operation. Once correctly installed, it enables the throttle to send signals to the controller, regulating motor speed and power output.

4. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and reliable performance of your communication wire, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the wire for any signs of wear, cuts, kinks, or damage to the insulation. Check connectors for corrosion or loose connections.
• Cleanliness: Keep the wire and connectors clean and free from dirt, dust, and moisture. Use a dry cloth to wipe them down.
• Avoid Stress: Do not pull, bend sharply, or apply excessive force to the wire or its connectors. Ensure it is routed in a way that prevents snagging or pinching.
• Environmental Protection: While the wire is designed for outdoor use, prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions (heavy rain, direct sunlight, extreme temperatures) can degrade its materials over time. Store your e-bike in a sheltered area when not in use.

5. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your e-bike's throttle after installing or using the communication wire, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Throttle Response:
  • Ensure the e-bike battery is charged and properly connected.
  • Check that both ends of the communication wire are securely connected to the throttle and controller.
  • Inspect the wire for any visible damage (cuts, severe kinks).
  • Verify that the throttle unit itself is functioning correctly (if possible, test with a known good wire or throttle).
• Intermittent Throttle Response:
  • Check for loose connections at either end of the wire.
  • Inspect the wire for internal damage that might not be visible externally.
  • Ensure no moisture or debris is present in the connectors.
• Incorrect Speed/Power Output:
  • This is less likely to be a wire issue unless there's a partial short or incorrect wiring. Re-verify connections.
  • Consult your e-bike's main manual for controller or throttle calibration procedures.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, it may indicate a fault with the wire, throttle, or controller, and professional assistance may be required.

7. User Tips

• Check Compatibility: Always confirm that this communication wire is specifically designed for your e-bike model (DYU Y16 or JETSON Haze Bolt Pro) to ensure proper fit and function.
• Gentle Handling: When connecting or disconnecting, always grasp the connector housing, not the wires, to prevent damage to the internal connections.
• Cable Management: After installation, use zip ties or cable clips to neatly secure the wire along the frame. This prevents it from getting caught, damaged, or interfering with riding.
• Regular Visual Checks: A quick visual inspection of all exposed wiring before each ride can help identify potential issues early.

8. Warranty and Support

For any questions regarding the installation, functionality, or potential defects of this communication wire, please contact the seller or manufacturer directly. Keep your purchase records for warranty claims, if applicable. Specific warranty terms may vary by seller and region.
