Hi Everybody, I need a little help.I posted a thread last week about my faulty pod and what options i had about repairing/replacing. The out-come was "if it's broken you have to buy a new one" ...so i bit the bullet and bought a "working unit" from e-bay for £55.Problem is it's not working either, i believe the seller is honest and have already contacted him about returns, and i don't believe he has knowling sold me a duff unit...which leads me to my question...am i doing something wrong???Iam obviously not using the original sinclair/oldham battery and "Clive" is not yet lifted from the workbench, however when the battery is connected the headlight and tail-light work and the motor runs when the handlebar switch is touched...There is enough life in the battery to turn the motor unloaded !!! is it possible that the battery could be poor enough to turn the motor but so low on voltage it doesn't activate the electronics??? I am 100% confident the polarity is correct so i know i haven't done anything too stupid ...is there anything in the control box which could effect signals to the pod ?Any ideas???
