Im pretty certain it gave up the ghost but looking for insight into what caused this.
Riding on flat and board lightly jerked a few times, looked down and a tiny puff of black emanated from the ventilation. This is what i found inside. One broken wire, a couple discolored ones and a small black spot. What could have cause this?
Probably a loose wire vibrating till it broke and shorted and doesn’t look like there’s anything holding the wire other than the white stuff on the edge.
Thats a fairly old version. The enamel on the coils is not very good and this is basically inevitable.
If you buy a more recent version the coils will last a lot longer as we found and upgraded them to a much better enamel wire and also the resin coating holding the coils in place has been improved.
Someone I spoke with said this happens from debris getting in through the vents - example : sand kicked up from riding near beaches. I assume this is accurate, and to OPs problem, probably triggered by something similar?
I think you should post the specific materials and their ratings of what ur using and people will then KNOW it’s better.I wonder about the stator and magnets too.
I assume the worst when places don’t state the details.
