Ninebot ES2 does not turn on

[benas1989]

Hello,

I have ninebot es2. After a while he does not want to turn on.

When i press power button i got:

1. The screen turns on briefly.

2. One beep and then eight beeps. (repeats several times and then turns off).

Error 18 but the screen does not turn on.

Like this video.

Can anyone help solve this problem?

@Philip - Do you know what error 18 indicates?

From what I see in the video there could be several problems going on here.

First, it looks to me as if the power button (switch) on the Handlebar could be faulty, or perhaps the electronics inside the Handlebar/UI is faulty? To check, you need to swap on a known-good handlebar.

Second, in the video the motor control cable from the Main Board is not connected to the Motor/Wheel. Simply being disconnected will cause Error 18 (this is a Hall sensor fault, but the cause of this fault being reported could be several things.....such as not being connected to the Wheel that has the Hall sensors in it). Try connecting this cable to the Wheel and see if the error goes away.

If Error 18 persists then the problem could be in the Main Board, or in the Motor/Wheel, or in the motor control cables that connect these two components. Carefully check both ends of motor control cables, looking for pinches/crimps/damaged white plug, etc. After that, what you'll need to do is swap on a known-good Motor and then a known-good Main Board to isolate the cause of the problem further.
