    EP8 motor spins... but no drive

    Motor is 2.5 years old, 13500 km no problems ...until now. By putting pressure on the pedals the motor spins but seems to have lost connection with the chainring. Any suggestions what is wrong. There is no error message.

    Shimano satellite ON/OFF switch problem, or battery, or ???

    I still have my old switch, problem only occurs in colder months, no problem from april until now, even if not riding for a week. When it happens I put a tool in one of the spider bolts and firmly spin the motor backwarts, it starts up.

    Shimano satellite ON/OFF switch problem, or battery, or ???

    When the problem is a flat power button battery, you can start the bike by pedalling backwarts. Connect the chainring to one of the pedals with a zip tie or if you have a spider, put an allen key in one of the bolts, pedal firmly backwarts and the bike starts up.

    Shimano satellite ON/OFF switch problem, or battery, or ???

    Canyon service center contacted me Yesterday and they contacted Shimano. This start button batt is NOT charged together with the main batt, it is charged by RIDING the bike or at a shimano service center via computer. Bike has 12000 km, thats a lot of charges/decharges, time to put in a new...

    Shimano satellite ON/OFF switch problem, or battery, or ???

    No, you are right, correction, frame warranty is not the the same as motor or parts warranty, I should know because I had a few broken chainstays on my bio bikes. There might be another way to start up but I have not tried it yet. When cleaning/oiling the chain I spin the crank backwards...

    Shimano battery in frame 504w stuck and won’t release!

    Correction, took a closer look, the big tooth is the one that retracts when turning the key, you have to slide a thin piece of metal all the way trough to push it inwards, than it will release. The base off the batt holder sits on springs, so you have a little play, put two screwdrivers between...

    Shimano battery in frame 504w stuck and won’t release!

    this is how it looks inside, in the middle the big tooth that holds the battery, the spring pushes the battery out, think you have to push deeper, maybe with a bent piece of metal or build something up in layers, its a small space between mech and battery i guess.

    Shimano battery in frame 504w stuck and won’t release!

    the plastic part that fell out is where the metal pivot is turned with force beyond it's reach, mine broke off to, you dont need it, I then put the bike upside down(watch the display) and removed the mech, its very easy, and was the able to repair it, when removed you also get a good look how...

    Shimano battery in frame 504w stuck and won’t release!

    When you turn the key, the battery falls into a second safety lock, then you have to push the metal part and the battery comes out. With the cover removed try to push this part down with a thin piece of metal

    Shimano battery in frame 504w stuck and won’t release!

    same here, the key turns only a quarter turn clockwise, i also overturned . I did manage to open it by pushing on the allen key, it keeps turning clockwise, slowly turn , feel the spring and hopefully by pushing on the allen key it might unlock. By overturning a very small blocking screw has...

    Shimano battery in frame 504w stuck and won’t release!

    had the same problem . DONT use a normal allen key, you will use to much force and overturn the lock. Use the small key delivered with the bike, there is explanation in the manual that came with the bike, dont turn wrong direction. Try to push the battery back with one hand and than turn the...

    I think Focus is using non-optimal chainrings on some of their e-bikes (jam², thron²)

    had the same problem first day on with my spectral-On 2021, chain (12sp) sticks to the wide teeth of the (alu) chainring, filed the wide teeth down a tiny bit(at the base), problem solved. Have 3000 km since (alternating two chains)

    2022 Canyon Spectral ON 8

    There should be no rattle at all from the battery, do you hear the second "click" when you push the battery in? Is the battery cover fully closed.? Grab the downtube and battery with both hands to give it a firm push. Can you feel any play when you push the battery cover? I think the mechanism...

    Turpentine (terpentine?) is a non aggressive glue residu remover, i,ve used it many times to remove sticker glue residu's on my windsurf sails, works slowly but is not agressive .
