Rad City Won’t Power On

[jstewar9]

Hey folks - I have a Rad City that no longer powers on. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

* went through all RadPower troubleshooting guides/videos to check wires - found no issues
* bought a replacement controller - also doesn’t power on
* borrowed a friend’s battery - also did not power on

So I know it’s not the battery or the controller, but not sure what else to try. Maybe the battery mount/connector, but not really sure how to test that. I also haven’t found a local shop that will look at the electrical components.

For context, I used the bike pretty consistently for about a year up until COVID lockdowns. It was in storage during lockdown and then I was able to use for about a month before this issue popped up.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Jonathon

What sort of on/off switch does the bike have e.g. press switch on the battery, a key press on the display, etc.?

Since you had tried A/B testing for the controller and battery, then another component is the display. Maybe you can get the same new display to check if there's something wrong with the display?

Yes do you have 5 pins for the lcd monitor?

Usually, it's 5pins but depends on the protocol. DM me the back picture of your display with those serial numbers, maybe could help.
