Kawasaki EX-500 based EV conversion utilizing the stock transmission coupled to a ~$400 48v eTek motor capable peaking to ~300A.

Other Bike Conversions

Sevcon

The ~$320 Sevcon 4QD 24-48V controller, Type 633T43802, SW 1.50.03 has armature current limits of 330A @1min and 130A @1hour. The Sevcon PCPak software for a windows PC is used as the programming interface.

  • 12.17 Digital Configuration = 15 footbrake @06, FS1@04, Seat@05
  • 12.18 Analogue Configuration = 3 0-5K throttle(10) and brake(11)

  • Ignition to main power(01), with 110/220vac grid charge interlock.
  • Seat(05) to wrist strap kill switch. Set "Seat Delay"=0.1s
  • Throttle(10) to new after market twist grip, will loose original run/stop and starter buttons.
  • Forward(02) and FS1(04) to NC Clutch switch, open on clutch to "freewheel" for shifts and coasting. Set "decel delay"=1.8s, "neutral braking level"=1 for coasting.
  • RegenBrk(11) original choke & FootBrk(06) to brake light switch per additional relay. Set "footbrake level" to regen preference for when footbrake is applied.
  • Contactor drives(08,09) are rated at 3A peak (10s) and 1.5A continuous. Use Albright aux contactors to drive a contactor status light.
  • Pin 12 is available for 100mA supply, typically used for (but not limited to) accelerator modules. 12V system with DC-DC converter (per Contactor_2 or Pin 12 signal). Drive a controller system status light.
  • Pins 13,14 & 15 are general-purpose suppression connections, may be used to suppress spikes generated by contactors opening / closing.
  • Left grip: Head Light, Tail Light, instrument lights, Brake Lamps, Blinkers. Modified Clutch and Choke.


Fault Codes

Fault Finding - The Diagnostic LED next to the calibrator connectors

  • ON -No fault, normal condition
  • OFF -Internal controller fault
  • 1 flash -Personality out of range
  • 2 flashes -Illegal start condition (Traction)
  • 3 flashes -MOSFET Short Circuit
  • 4 flashes -Contactor fault or Motor Open Circuit
  • 5 flashes -Not used
  • 6 flashes -Accelerator wire off fault
  • 7 flashes -Low or High battery voltage or BDI cutout operating
  • 8 flashes -Over temperature or timed cutback
  • 10 flashes -Power Up Autozero has not yet been completed


Table 10: Flash Fault Descriptions
In addition to the LED indication a more detailed description of any faults detected may be found by using the calibrator. Menu item number 13.01 gives a code which corresponds to the following detected faults:

  • ID -Flash -Fault Description
  • 0 -On -System OK.
  • 1 -8 -Thermal Cutback, power is reduced.
  • 2 -8 -Timed Current Limit.
  • 3 -6 -Accelerator Wire Off.
  • 4 -6 -Accelerator Pressed at Power Up.
  • 5 -2 -Belly Fault The Belly switch function has occurred.
  • 6 -2 -Seat Fault Drive selected and no seat switch closed.
  • 7 -10 -Autozero Not Taken.
  • 8 -2 -FS1 Recycle, FS1 switch closed during a direction change.
  • 9 -2 -SRO Fault, Direction selected for >2 seconds with FS1 open.
  • 10 -2 -Two Direction Fault Two directions selected together.
  • 11 -2 -Sequence Fault Direction or FS1 switch closed at power up.
  • 12 -7 -Low Battery Fault Battery voltage is too low.
  • 13 -7 -High Battery Fault Battery voltage is too high.
  • 14 -7 -High Battery Fault with Line Contactor Open.
  • 15 -1 -Configuration Range Fault, A personality is out of range.
