    Very helpful video. Took me a while to work through it but so much more instructive than the 'official' VM video. Thanks!

    Having read that this is the s3 a weak spot I’m not to scared if it does break, looks like an easy fix. Great video.

      The fix can be done quit quickly. But ofcourse its better if there would be no need for fixing it in the first place. I had some problem with the e-shifter but now its running smooth for quite some time.

    this was a great and helpful video, much better than the other ones on the internet. the test itself after finishing was a bit difficult since every time the e-shifter moved directly into gear 4. I guess I turned the pedals too fast from the start. but the real test, in the streets, was a great success.
    owww it is useful to remove the VM-app from the background since it caused the bike to switch on after a minute or so - when I had the app still open in the background - after I turned the bike off as per your suggestion at the start of the repair/video.
    next up: try and repair my old e-shifter. some people suggest a resistor needs to be replaced. I guess I have to get into measuring electronics to identify what component is broken en needs repair. any experience with such?

    Very helpful video, but i have a problem. The e-shifter dot is aligned correctly, but the gear set ring is not. In the official vanmoof video i should just be able to turn the gear set ring into the correct position, but i am unable to do so. And therefore there is still a gap. Any ideas?

    • @R-JayRockwell
      @R-JayRockwell  Před 2 lety +1

      The 2 marks on the e-shifter should be at a 90 degree angle. if not than connect the E-shifer to the bike and than start the bike by pressing the reset button. when de bike shuts down the new e-shifter will align to 90 degrees. Is your old e-shifter on 90 degrees? if not you can connect the new one and start the bike. if you put the bike on custom shifting you can put the shifter on the same position at the old on by shifting manually.
      Don't let your bike shut off because than it might go back to the old position. I am not a 100% sure if you can safely disconnect the e-shifter while the bike is on.

    • @R-JayRockwell
      @R-JayRockwell  Před měsícem

      Hi, This error may occur when your bike cannot communicate properly with the E-shifter, or when the E-shifter cable is not properly connected. So if you are lucky it could be that the connector is loose or something
