Hi,
I've recently inherited my dad's electric bike but he never shown me how to use it (so I might be missing something really obvious) and we are looking to sell it on to pay for his funeral costs since he passed away.
There is a button that switches on the display on the handlebars but the display only switches on when the battery is connected to power. I know this is kind of a how long is a piece of string question - but is it likely a problem with the battery? He never mentioned there being an issue with it so I'm just wondering do I need to switch the battery on with another secret button that I can't find or do I need the key (that is missing) so that it switches on whilst not connected to the charger? The battery is 48v and the bike uses a Bafang motor on a Carrera Vengeance converted bike if that is any help whatsoever. I can happily post pics if they are of any use. Is it going to be a case of taking it to a repair shop to fix or is it completely useless without the key?
Thanks - appreciate any advice I get,
Alex
