You don’t need K1 or Besst if you’re just replacing the socket board. I’ve done it. My Mythique has failed twice with water in the motor, first time was a wet corroded socket board, second was droplets of water on the internal cable connectors. I think that was a knackered bearing letting in...

Bike turns on but code 12 comes up. Took the motor apart and there are droplets of water everywhere particularly on the ribbon cable and the power connections inside. The connector board is dry though. The controller is a bit damp but seems to sealed a lot better than the connector board. The...

Thanks Neeco, not sure how to pm you? I’ve knackered the warranty after repairing it a few months ago. Repair was a replacement connector board - original was corroded, motor had water in it. Might be same again although different fault codes? Cheers

Mine died today with Error Code 27 briefly then permanent Error Code 12. Changed the display and it went away. Now returned again. Internet says needs a new controller. Anyone had this? Could it be water on the connector board in the motor again? Cheers

If I was buying a new one, I’d be very tempted to take the motor out and send it to them straight away and stuff the warranty. The upgrade does a great job in keeping the water out. Mine isn’t jet washed or anything but it’s out in all weather.

My motor had a broken clutch bearing probably from a heavy pedal strike/crash. I got a full upgrade done. The cost was £240 which included a bearing replacement as a precaution. It’s probably more expensive now though. Cheers

Ebike Motor Centre serviced and upgraded my 2018 Levo motor almost 3 years ago. It’s had a hard life usually around Innerleithen. Motor is still as smooth and reliable as it was after the work was done. These guys know what they’re doing!

Sorry didn’t quite explain that right. The dialectic grease went between the rubber gasket and the engine casing particularly round the sockets. The grease I packed inside the casing behind the chainring was Lucas Red n Tacky marine stuff. Cheers

My Mythique is now up and running again! Woo Hoo! New connector board seems to have fixed it. At least a quick trip up and down the street shows its ok so far 🤞 There was signs of water ingress/corrosion on the soldered pins on the back of the connector blocks and one or two of the tracks looked...

The most important place would between the right hand crank bearing and where it goes inside of the side cover. Mine had none, just aluminium corrosion. I would apply grease sparingly on the moving parts as the controller is a bit exposed. Also there is large hole through to the actual motor...

That bearing in mine had water in it as well. Slight corrosion but I cleaned it and repacked it also. Needs changed. I’ve been checking out seal orientation and it seems that in this type of application it allows the grease to purge outwards.

Well that didn’t go well. Split the motor carefully. A few drops of water fell out! Got the 2 halfs apart - water everywhere, on the controller, on the gears, even in the electric motor itself. I can see how to gets in from the trail of corrosion on the aluminium cover. As skismith said earlier...

Brilliant, great news! Did you spot anything on the old socket board or ribbon? Cheers! Well done 👍

When mine started to go wonky, a combination of button pushes randomly got it working till it went completely dead. The error codes I got varied but mostly 36 and 5. New display, button remote and wiring loom made no difference to mine. New display I got was Ver3. Original was Ver2. My bike ran...

The battery sounds good then. Mine was the same, power at the yellow plug. Looking at the power boards for sale I see there is a circuit board on the back and a series of tracks close together to a white connector block. Could be a place for moisture to cause havoc if not sealed properly?

I’m also in the same boat. Changed everything bar the motor and the battery. My battery is operating the same as yours. I’m assuming it’s ok but not 100% sure. I’ll go down the motor controller route when I’m convinced the battery is ok. Not sure how to do that though? I’m a bit concerned that...

Thanks guys

Thanks for help guys. I was going to try and recover money from PayPal but I think I’ll try a repair as it’s such a good bike. How easy is it to get the correct controller and K1flash? Cheers

Also noticed that the yellow main power socket on the motor has a hole in the middle and on mine you can see the green back of the controller connecting board. There’s a black seal between the board and the side of the motor but this connector goes through it. Maybe water can get in this way?

Hi, do you have to program the controller after fitting?
