I have a Raleigh Detour ie bike with a Currie 500W Hub motor. I am experiencing two problems which may be related. The first problem is that the pedal assist does not immediately engage. After I play with it awhile by adjusting the gears and increasing and decreasing the PAS level, it does finally engage and displays the error code 6 when it does. This error code indicates that the brake disengage function is not operating properly. I have looked at the brakes to see if I can identify the problem, but do not see any problems.
The second problem I am encountering is that when the PAS finally does engage, it only operates up to 15 mph instead of 20 mph.
I would appreciate any suggestions on either problem. I have read that the speed issue may be correctable by adjusting the wheel size reading in the controller. I can access the diagnostic mode, but it doesn't seem to allow for any adjustment or resetting of the wheel size setting.
Now that Raleigh isn't distributing in the US anymore, I am having a hard time finding someone who can service the bike.
