Looks like a new machine now ! Only thing left is to send Joey the pcb , install the pads on the panels, solder said pcb and close her up! Your old board is/was 6 MOS and your new will be 12 MOS? Prepare for getting some Problems with screwing in the new board :-( Only one of the 4 screws will fit into it's old hole. The others are on other positions, because of a slightly different heatsink pattern. I just one week ago run into this Problem when doing the exact same ACM rebuild. My solution was just to use some tiny bit longer screws and now screw them into the Shell by them self... Btw.: I found a solution for my rebuild ACM, the rusty, defect ball bearings of the used Motor will be changed by 1radwerkstatt.de, and that for a very fair Price. So Looks like my ACM will also be running again in near future :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no problems installing (?) Just now, Scott Henley said: No. Old board is 12 . Originally it was 6 but upgraded to 12. That one got a small burn/melt in one mosfets. But no problems installing (?)

I allready thought about just using the battery packs...but now i am glad that i will have a small wheel for my GF! She is not yet comfortable in riding EUC's and gets it much better done on smaller wheels, than on the monstrous Shell type wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has the new updated software that came from China shortly after the firmware issues. If you are inclined to change the board you can have this for free. I just want it to go to a member that can use it. Hey @Rehab1. One quick question. my pcb has a component not present on yours . It’s a blue rectangle to the right of the capacitors. Any idea what it’s for ? If you zoom in bottom right of pcb you can see it . Edited March 13, 2018 by Scott Henley Blue not brown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotway is minimalist for sure and not customer friendly. Get this. When buy a replacement motor from KingSong it comes with the pedal hangers already mounted. Gotway? Just the motor. They do give you the axle nuts so I guess we can't complain too much 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
