ebike hall throttle issues
« on: November 10, 2020, 11:52:20 am »
Hi all,yesterday my ebike conked out,after a few checks i found no signal from the throttle,on inspection the 5v left leg of the hall sensor had coroded thru,no probs just replace the hall,originaly i would get a varying voltage output from abou.5v to 4.7v from the rh leg of the hall and ground,with the replacement its roughly .5v-2.2v depending on throttle position,if i put a 8k resistor between the lh input leg and the rh output leg,the output is 0v until the throttle gets to a certain point then jumps to 5v,there is no gradual rise as i turn the throttle,its all or nothing,any ideas?,cheers paul m3vuv.

What was the part number of the original hall sensor and the replacement part?
Sometimes it might make more sense to replace the whole throttle module.

There so many different hall sensors types.
I would expect the hall sensor from a brushless motor to be on/off type and not produce an analog output, as is needed with a throttle control.
