Hi, just watched this motor removal vid . My motor is now out of warranty so going to do a bearing replacement and internal service. I was mainly looking for the battery connection removal but your information was very interesting, somewhat cringy watching you struggling. Thanks for taking the time to produce the video. I’m in Manchester UK & riding a Nukeproof Megawatt.
Thanks for your efforts. I have exactly the same bike and this could be helpful ad I need to change out for xt brakes and motor may need to be removed if I can't get the new hose through. Cheers you are a legend
Mate you were killing me watching you put the cables back in. There is a shimano tool that makes removal and insertion of the cables a 2 sec job. Lucky you didn't damage them using long nose pliers 😀
So I only got sorted yesterday with the tool Derek Harper had suggested. Thanx again Derek. 👍🏼👍🏼 www.pushys.com.au/shimano-tl-ew02-ultegra-di2-plug-tool.html
@@justaride1474 sorry just saw your question. Yep that is the tool. I would also get the other one that fits the newer and thinner plugs used on the ep8.. it's the TL-EW300
Is it necessary to remove the crank arms to get the motor off? I don't have that big socket tool you used to remove that bottom bracket do-hicky. Cool video by the way. Thank you for making it.

Cheers for the heads up on the tools.
I am aware watching me can be a wild ride. 😉
Don’t attest to be a how to video. 👍🏼
Thanks for video - Derek - can you post info on that tool(s) - I've got to replace my motor (warrantied).

Don't see that one listed on pushys but other stores have them
Given the tight tolerances - what happens if the motor breaks and they no longer make that exact one? Is there a standard for these motor shapes?
Good question man. I know the predecessor e8000 drive unit is the same external shape.

I can’t see the crank arm removal necessary for motor removal. You should be right to take it out. 👌🏼👌🏼
Needle nose pliers spread appart will do the trick
Unless you are referring to the chainring retaining lockring
Hi, How many kilometers did he have at that time?
Would of been about 500kms on the clock.
Not too many want to venture down this trail. But mechanics gunna mechanic. No upgrades for the Hadron collider?
Yeah for now I will be the only particle being accelerated. 👌🏼👌🏼
Could you confirm the chainring removal tool , make and part no if you get a chance. Thanks
Yeah man. This is where I got mine from.

👍🏼👍🏼
that's a nice motor by far, i guess it is easier to start from the rear inserts then slide it up front when reinstalling. :-)
If it's not broken don't try to fix it.
But how do we learn??🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️
