The self-resetting circuit breaker (located inside the controller - not
a user serviceable part) will automatically trip and turn off the power
if the motor is overloaded. Allow up to a full minute for it to reset.
An excessive overload (steep incline or excessive rider weight) could
have caused the motor to overheat and trip the breaker. Avoid
repeatedly tripping the breaker, as this can damage the controller.
Check all wires and connectors to make sure they are connected
and tight.
Battery may need to be replaced. Even with proper care,
