    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    I'm in the USA. Got any contact info for anyone at Shimano? Having a hard time finding any.

    Broke E8000 Power Connector - what now?

    Went to drop the motor, and came down too quickly, and the main power cable snapped the plastic housing. The cable wont plug in anymore, and motor is useless. Can the port be replaced? Any other ideas? Seems insane to waste a perfectly good motor on this.

    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    Well, bad news. The motor dropped too quickly and it broke the power connector. The plastic broke off into the harness plug. Any ideas if this is fixable? There are 4 screws around this plug, so seems like maybe a swappable component? Anyone have an idea?

    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    Trust me, the allen key does not quite go in straight, so cant get any leverage on it without potentially stripping the bolt

    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    Well, damn. I have a 34t. Makes this super duper annoying. I guess I'll try to buy the tool and go further down this rabbit hole. Talk about commitment.

    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    Thanks, any other tips? I just tried to drop it, and was not able to access two of the bolts holding the motor, as the chainring was in the way. Did you do something special to get access to those? Using a special tool with very low clearance? Or is removing the chainring the only answer?

    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    Thanks. The other poster has a picture that seems to have the cranks still installed. If thats possible, thats what i'd prefer as I just need to access the cables. Any thoughts on not pulling everything apart and still being able to pull it down a bit?

    How to drop motor of YT Decoy?

    I need to access the speed sensor cable on the motor for....reasons....and it seems that the motor needs to be dropped to get access to that due to the decoys super stealth design. Anyone have a walkthrough on how to do that?
