Yep they are garbage for sure. As we speak my oldest son is at a Wednesday night series race leading the ebike class and his brother is watching on the sidelines because this POS I’ve been posting about won’t turn on an hour before we left to go race. And Specialized won’t listen to a thing...
Got this code today finally. Has been months since it showed this code. Would not charge today and is blinking at the display when it turns on and again lost power while riding a couple days ago. They have ordered a speed sensor for it. But now hopefully they will get a battery on the way.
Yes I feel the same way. Had 2 Reigns and 2 Trances. 2 motors replaced on the Reigns but no real problems with the Trances. All of them had issues with not turning on after they were washed no matter how gently and I got tired of them and sold all and got 3 new Levo’s. The Levo’s are worse...
Yes I also had 2 replacement motors for my Reign E. Mine broke the gears on both occasions. One was after a small drop of about 3 feet it suddenly made a big pop and the other was going over a log at speed when it did the same.
So to update they replaced my TCU and power cable after 7 weeks being at the shop. Rode it for an hour and it was fine. Went to ride it the next time and it lost all power 5 minutes in. The power display cuts off and you have no assistance. It would not turn back on. I pulled the plug at the...
Yes that’s what they are referring to and my shop is going to replace mine under warranty but I’m skeptical because of the symptoms mine has that aren’t like what described above.
Can’t get this video to post. But if you remove the power cable from the battery and touch the two middle terminals of the battery and the two rear terminals at the same time the charging indicator lights will light up and show current battery level and flash until you remove your finger. Mine...
Sounds like the TCU on your bike. It would have to be a major wire to wire short for the power cable to cause that issue. Sounds like the TCU is faulty and allowing constant power somewhere it shouldn’t. But anything is possible I suppose.
Thank you for your reply. Mine has passed their battery test also every time but I am very familiar with this as a automotive technician. Batteries fail on a load tester that are perfectly fine and pass when they’re won’t hold a charge for an hour all the time in my experience. I will post a...
How many people here have had a battery replacement under warranty or a power cable replacement? I have a 22 Levo with 500 ish miles that has had a sudden power loss issue for months. It is random but can be duplicated and has been at my local dealer. The first time I bought it back for this it...
Did you ever get this resolved? My Levo has one light flashing at the battery when you plug it up to charge sometimes and won’t charge but then will charge later randomly. And the bike randomly cuts off and has no power and stores no codes. The dealer says it has a cold weather event code stored...
Let them put a cable on it and see what happens. Like most bike shops they know nothing about electronics it seems. From your symptoms it would not be the battery, mode switch or speed sensor. Would likely be a problem with power from the battery or tcu to the motor or the motor itself. I had a...
Another question, how much have you guys in the US paid for a 700 battery? Looks like I’m going to have to buy a couple so I can sell these turds and not feel bad about screwing someone like Specialized did me.
Yes I’m sure it’s the battery but the dealer can’t replicate the problem and Specialized won’t help either. A few months ago one of my other Levo’s wouldn’t turn on after charging almost every time. We were at a GNCC and the Specialized support truck checked it and said the battery was bad...
I have 3 22 Levo’s. One of them is shutting down after about 5 minutes riding and will sometimes power back up and let you ride for a couple minutes then shut off completely, maybe for a day or so. Here’s what I’ve found: it never shows an error and it’s sometimes very hard to reproduce. Last...
Yes I agree there’s a problem. We have 3 2022 Levo’s, 1 carbon and 2 alloys. I was shocked when I took them apart and have the bearing cups fall out in the floor. Mine all made noise also and I thought about applying loctite to them but didn’t want that hassle when changing down the road. I used...
