Nice post, thanks. However, take care, there is a major typo in your "bucketlist": EW-SD300 is the component name of the SD300 extension cable (the ones you also have used in 700mm and 1000mm lengths), however the PC linkage device is called SM-PCE02 (not EW-SD300)! Maybe you can change this...

So most probably these dealers are certified for talking "blabla", but not for Shimano issues. :ROFLMAO::LOL: But this is a common attitude of bike dealers... I´m quite sure miniMax will work also with motor firmware 4.2.3, because these guys already have found a solution for the latest 4.3.0...

Your dealer is not allowed to change this setting, because for this official configuration change in the E-Tube-Project-Professional software you need special privileges which only a few Shimano employees have. So only if such a Shimano employee will remotely log in to your dealers computer with...

You need a Windows computer and a SM-PCE02 interface from Shimano. Then you can download the miniMax - program from eMax-Tuning (German engineering ;) ) and can use this tool already in the licence key free (and so free of charge) mode to configure your bike with the new Di2 derailleur...

EP801 regulation log still contains destination and circumference even if you cannot change region anymore once it was programmed by Shimano on their production facility.

Some personal thoughts on the Orbea production line (very good) and marketing strategy (very bad)! I am really getting sick and quite mad about this "RS" - issue now reading the same BS over and over again... First of all, I am quite experienced in the Shimano world since some years now, I am...

Please use the E-Tube-Project software ("Cyclist" - app for Bluetooth or "Professional" - program for Windows) and read the "error protocol" with this software. Then check the full number of the error, because in this way you most probably will get 5 or 6 digits (instead of only 3 on the bike...

These are 2 completely different battery packs (looks the same, have the same battery cells inside, but have a different battery firmware). You cannot change the firmware of the BMS (battery management system, the electronics inside the battery) by yourself So most probably the spare battery...

So, if your bike is from Santa Cruz, then "yes", you should contact Santa Cruz. ;) If you haven´t ordered your bike yet, then you can ask if they will give you a second battery for a discount. A lot of bike manufacturers offer such a deal for a second spare battery.

Normally you only can get these batteries from the bike manufacturer, because mostly there are some extra mechanical parts added to the battery from Darfon so it will fit exactly into the bike frame and electrical connectors inside the frame. Also you never ever can interchange these batteries...

There is no "EP801 darfon 720w"! There are many different batteries with a capacity of 720Wh of the Taiwanese battery manufacturer Darfon which are generation 2 types (which are necessary for the DU-EP801 drive unit), one of them is the "E4C0G-SN" type with a nominal capacity of 726Wh which is...

Exactly, water ingress and humidity mostly is the reason for such sporadic errors on any Shimano STePS based systems.

Just write an email to the guys from EMAX and they most probably will reply soon and explain everything you need to know. AFAIK, you need the newer PCE02 interface with the correct adapter cable with the small plug and the older PCE1 type will not work.

So, you are the lucky guy. (y) :) Here in Austria and most probably also in Germany, the Shimano represenative "Thalinger Lange" refuses to set correct configuration changes when you have bought and mounted the components by yourself. Did you have to pay extra for your LBS or Shimano Spain for...

That depends => What intention do you have with the older SM-PCE1? What do you want to change on your bike? This older SM-PCE1 interface is no more compatible with the newer E-Tube-Project-Professional software version 5.x.x (which is mandatory for the EP801 / EP6 drive units), however it will...

With a PCE interface you can easily store these errors in a so called service report in PDF format and then clear the error log if you want so (I hate such nasty errors in my motor´s history).

E914 is always a clear indication that there is a contact problem between battery and drive unit. This mostly is due to a contact problem (bent, dirty or corroded contact) at the connector from the battery to the receptacle inside the frame. Always take extreme care when detaching and attaching...

You can believe it or not but it is just a legal thing why Shimano don´t let a private person change the mechanical derailleur to an electric derailleur. There is at least a theoretical risk that your intervention in the electrical system (which you already have made) makes the system go havoc...

Please read the full chapters 3 and 12 of this document and you will see that you indeed can connect to your bike via your Bluetooth capable SW-EN600-L control (also with the latest motor firmware 4.2.0) via Bluetooth. However, it is NOT possible to change gear mode settings via Bluetooth! So...

Only Orbea bikes use the power and torque reduced EP801-RS drive unit and these units are clearly marked with a blue "RS" sticker on the right hand motor cover, so your 24 Santa Cruz most probably uses the standard EP801 with max. 85Nm of torque and max. 600W peak power. Even if your new system...
