[QUOTE="Dino soar, post: 12133260, member: 208212"]It's been so long since I worked on electric brakes, but the problem is probably in your wiring or in your magnets. Make sure you don't have any broken wires using an ohmmeter whatever just make sure all your connections are live. Make sure you have electricity from the controller and the front and the back wheels are live to one another I'm not sure that the magnets themselves ever go bad but I think everything has to be really clean in there. When you pull the wheel off you may find them covered in dirt or whatever. There is not much else to them aside from the magnets and electricity and the brake adjustment.[/QUOTE]
