I have a Pedego Umbrella 16" bike and through a pretty random thing the wire going into the wheel got ripped through and the wires exposed and I think there might have been some kind of short circuit as once I'd soldered the wired back together the geared motor is not turning. When I switch on the ignition the lights come on on the throttle. Now I'm wondering whether the controller might have been damaged or whether the small circuit board in the wheel might have been affected? Trying to figure which to try to replace?

It's very frustrating and any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Very likely, there is some form of "fuse", or safety component, on either the controller, or motor, or both. If visual inspection shows no indication, I would recommend contacting the seller or manufacturer. They are the only probable source of information-help!

Thanks so much I'll try that. Not gone inside the controller yet to see if there's anything inside. Didn't see anything like that in the motor within the wheel when I went inside.

Thanks again

Here are some pics. Can't figure out where there might be anything like a fuse?

I've just temp insulated the parts of the cable soldered back together so please don't be horrified over how bad it looks
