Check that all connectors in the cockpit and behind the fairing are seated and there is no visible damage to the cables.

For the next step, it may be easier if you can flip your bike upside down in a clear, safe area and with plenty of space around you.


 Hold your brake levers tight and walk backwards, lifting the front wheel off the ground until you can gently place your handlebars on the ground.

 

Get a friend to assist you if necessary. 

Take the plastic cover off from under the seat with a 4mm hex wrench and by cutting all the zip ties holding it in place.

Check that all connectors under the seat are well connected and there is no visible damage to the cables.

 Make sure both battery leads XT90 connectors are well connected to the battery balancer, and the balancer is connected to the controller without any damage to the connectors or cables. 

Make sure your motor-to-controller cable is not damaged, paying close attention to where it exits the axle and passes by the rotor. Make sure all the zip ties are still in place.

Also, check where the motor cable comes out of the bike frame near the bottom bracket. Also, make sure all the zip ties are still in place.

Reset your display settings by double-tapping the power button on the keypad. 

Then scroll through the menu with the plus until you reach the "DF" menu. 

Tap the power once to open the "DF" menu. 

Scroll to the "Y" option and tap the power button one more time. 

Now the display will reboot to complete the default setting reset.
