  • 9-Pin Controller: Connects to the main controller unit.
  • 2-Pin Lamp Line: For e-bike lighting.
  • 3-Pin Dial Handle: For throttle or speed control.
  • 5-Pin Appearance: Typically for the KT display unit.
  • 2-Pin Brake (x2): For connecting two brake levers.

Ensure all connections are firm and waterproof plugs are fully seated to prevent moisture ingress.

4. Operating Instructions

Once all connections are securely made and verified, you can power on your e-bike system. The controller will work in conjunction with your KT display to manage motor functions.

  • Power On: Turn on your e-bike battery and then the KT display.
  • Speed Control: Use your e-bike's throttle or pedal-assist system (PAS) to control motor speed. The controller provides steady speed output.
  • Braking: The controller offers sensitive braking control. Engaging the brake levers will cut motor power, enhancing safety.
  • Display Functions: Refer to your KT display's manual for specific operational modes, settings, and error codes.

5. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your controller.

  • Cleaning: Keep the controller's exterior clean and free from dirt and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
  • Heat Dissipation: The aluminum alloy housing is designed for efficient heat dissipation. Ensure the controller is mounted in a location with adequate airflow and not covered by other components.

  • Connection Integrity: Periodically check all electrical connections for tightness and signs of wear or corrosion. Ensure waterproof plugs are securely sealed.
  • Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the e-bike and controller in a dry, temperate environment.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your controller, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

  • No Power/Motor Not Responding:
    • Verify that the e-bike battery is charged and properly connected.
    • Check all connections between the controller, motor, and display for looseness or damage.
    • Ensure the KT display is correctly connected and powered on.
  • Erratic Speed Control:
    • Inspect the throttle/dial handle connection for any issues.
    • Check for any loose motor phase wires.
  • Brakes Not Functioning Correctly:
    • Ensure brake lever connections to the 1T5 cable are secure.
    • Verify that the brake levers themselves are mechanically sound.
  • Overheating:
    • Ensure the controller is not obstructed and has adequate airflow.
    • Confirm the motor power (250-350W) is within the controller's specified range.

If problems persist after attempting these steps, contact customer support.
