Fantastic information for the Lectric ebike 3.0.😀 The original PA start off "kick" kept me off my bike for months; I'm going to try the different PA throttles!👏 That setting may make a "U-Turn" easier. Also, as I was walking my bike up a short hill of grass to the bike path (left hand on grip and right hand on seat) it got away from me! I didn't understand that putting pressure on the seat affected or engaged the PA. Very easy to understand instructional video, THANK YOU!

There are 2 more settings not mentioned. P3 which by default is 48 but I have no idea what that setting affects. P22 which by default is 0. When set to 1 you have FULL range of throttle on all PAS levels

[@nitebeest]

P3 is 48V Voltage. The selection settings are 24V, 36V, and 48V. This shouldn't be changed unless advised by an authorized rep.

[@LectricGo]

Do you have the newer PWR controller? Setting 22 is not adjustable on older versions of the XP 3.0 controller like the one I have.

Awesome video!!! Thank you! Stupid question, but my wife just bought me the XP Lite, and the class 2 speed setting cannot be bumped up to class 3 28mph. All other settings you recommended were adjusted. Is there another way to bypass or am I sticking at 20mph?

[@JHOFF111]

Ive tried tire size at 20, 23, and 24 seems 23 and 24 are showing faster then my speedometer app on my phone. Not sure what is truly correct. I think the default setting at 20 may be most accurate, idk for sure

[@LectricGo]

I tried recalibrating with speedometer app but the problem with a lot of GPS apps is that they bounce a lot. I also found that the XP 3.0 display reading varies if you pedal vs using throttle only. As long as it's close, I'm mot stressing about it :)

[@Des2740]

Hi great video I have a keteles k800 and I just disabled the throttle till I get use to it it takes of very fast and it is so easy just to flip the throttle by mistake do you k ow what setting 15 is I changed mine by mistake and it’s at 39 I think yours in the video is at 40 ?

Great vid. How do you change the TRIP A/B settings?

[@LectricGo]

When the bike is on, you tap the power button to scroll through the different mileage, voltage, current and time indicators.

[@martyjenkins3631]

Thanks for trying these out, so I don't have to. I think the P11 setting--for PAS sensitivity--may count the number of magnets on the foot crank passing a spot before starting the motor. So, how much of a circle do you pedal before getting help, measured in about 30 degrees each?

[@LectricGo]

That makes sense. Set at 24 it did take approximately two full turns. Set at 30 degs, 12 magnets x 2 turns would equal 24.

[@Archont4000]

What bike are you riding? XP 3.0 or a different model? On my XP 3.0 you hold the throttle at a steady position while pressing and holding the "-" button on the left control pad until "cruise" is indicated on the display.

[@larrybennett6534]

I have both 2.0 & 3.0 in LR ST. I am extremely disappointed with my 3.0 not being able to have full throttle on assist level 1 or 2. I would teach people to take off with the throttle then pedal. But now the 3.0 has to be on pedal assist 3 or higher to get the throttle to go full. SO now when you take off in level 1 or 2 the bike has very little power, 2 amps in level 1 to get going with the throttle. It almost gets stick in the grass, its got no take off power anymore. Nothing like the 2.0. I like a new ridder to start out on level 1. Not have them flying on level 3 when they start peddling just staring out. There is no way to change this throttle problem. I talked to Lectric & was told the new controller PWR can not be changed to get full throttle in level 1 or 2 anymore. Has to be on level 3 or higher. This just bites! Setting 23 to #1 does not change the throttle power on assist level 1 or 2. Had my 3.0 for 2 days & looks like I will be selling it. Yes the 3.0 bike rides better than the 2.0 but the new controller bites on the 3.0. Lectric's new "ONE" bike you can change this but that is the only bike you can change the throttle response on level 1 or 2. Unless you bump to level 3 or higher, when you take off with the 3.0 bike it is now ballsless. Same for coming to a hill in level 2. Hitting the throttle does nothing! You have quickly bump to assist level 3 so you have throttle control. This just bites.

[@LectricGo]

I just got an email from lectric about how to get the PWR programming on my XP3.0. I usually ride in PAS 3-5 so I'm going to try it and report on my findings. I have seen several comments like yours with some not liking it much.

[@larrybennett6534]

@@LectricGo "Not liking it much" boy that is an understatement, lol. If you find a way to get this throttle fixed/reprogramed please please let me know. (before I just sell it) . Love my 2.0 it's a brute compared to this 3.0. Lectric told me they are going with this new controller, "sorry you don't like it you can't change it". I rode 15 miles today. Throttle is so non responsive even in level 3. It has to be in level 5 to get somewhat full throttle. This bike is a dog. This 3.0 can't even do donuts tehee this 3.0 is a boat anchor compared to a 2.0. Thanks for your reply, signed "desperate to get my throttle back"

[@AmerQuin]

Have you figured out how to unlock the speed for Throttle? Cause unlocking it as a Class 3 ebike is only when you're pedaling, otherwise you get stuck at 20mph throttle

[@nitebeest]

I'm pretty sure throttle is pegged to 20 mph regardless of class. Though with PAS 5 and class 3, 28+ mph should be pretty easy to achieve.

[@mobiusgaming781]

@nitebeest Yes, but from what I've seen, even when you put it into PAS 5 completely unlocked, the throttle will still do 20mph max, it only gives more power to go 28mph+ when you pedal,.. and was asking if there was a way to have the same 28mph+ on the throttle

[@nitebeest]

@@mobiusgaming781 I meant with pedaling, 28+ should be doable. Throttle seems to be set at 20 regardless of class 2 or 3 and PAS settings.

[@whoaaanelly65]

I just got a pair of 3.0 extended range walk through bikes, and today was our first ride. We were both wanting to try minimal PAS #1, but it kept "crow-barring" the max speed - coasting downhill or not - to 9mph. This meant either no assist or PAS-2 or higher for the entire ride. I came to find PAS-0 on a flat very tough, because the bike is so much heavier than I've ever ridden. Suffice it to say, I was slightly disappointed with my first ride. I basically used 60% of the battery on a flat 22 mile ride. I remembered watching this video as we waited for the bikes to arrive and watched it again and didn't see a setting to address this issue. I then looked at the manual and it shows a P22 setting which will turn this "PAS 1 and 2" governor OFF allowing for full speed on both - up to the P8 setting max, for like coasting downhill, etc. I just found this in the manual and this comment section of this video, so fingers crossed on my next ride it works. I'm still not sure if there is a cut-off on the electrical assist for each PAS level and what they will be, but having it resist your speed means it has to use power to do that too. Don't want that! Hope it works!
