Step by step How do I check my motor plug colour?

How to check which motor plug colour your fatbike has

All you need is a pair of wire cutters and it takes a minute. The colour is on the inside of the motor plug, so you'll need to pull it apart. That's fine: it won't damage the plug.

1 minute Just wire cutters No experience needed
  1. Fatbike on its stand, with the motor in the rear wheel

    Go to the rear wheel

    Put your fatbike on its stand. The motor is in the rear wheel, and one thick cable comes out of it: the motor cable.

  2. Cutting the cable tie around a fatbike's motor cable with wire cutters

    Follow the motor cable to the plug

    The motor cable runs along the frame to the first plug. It's usually held in place with two cable ties. Cut the first one.

  3. Cutting the second cable tie at the motor plug

    Cut the second cable tie too

    Now the plug hangs free and you can get a good grip on it.

  4. Holding a fatbike's motor plug by hand

    Hold the plug on both sides

    Hold it by the thick plug housings, not by the thin wires.

  5. A fatbike's motor plug pulled apart, with the pins visible

    Pull the plug firmly apart

    It's a tight fit, so don't be afraid to pull hard. The plug won't break.

  6. Red inside of a fatbike motor plug with pins

    Look at the inside

    Where the pins stick out you'll see the colour: red or black. That's your motor plug colour.

Done? Push the plug firmly back together (the pins only fit one way) and, if you like, put a new cable tie around it.
For the red motor plug

This controller only fits if the inside of your fatbike's motor plug is this colour. Not sure? You can check it in 1 minute.

Product information

The benefits at a glance

  • Restricted to 25 km/h
  • 6 km/h throttle
  • Original part
  • Suitable for: Ouxi V8 Max with red motor cable
  • Version: 21A, 250/500W, red motor plug, five connections with alarm
  • Speed: limited to 25 km/h, throttle up to 6 km/h, no tuning function

The V8 Max has a bigger battery than the regular V8, but the same motor control with red plug. This limited controller replaces a faulty unit and lets the V8 Max ride like it did on delivery again: 25 km/h assistance and 6 km/h walk assist.

Tuning is not possible with this part; for that there is the tunable V8/C80 controller with red plug. If your V8 Max has a black motor plug, choose the black version. Fitting means moving five plugs over under the saddle, without tools.

Good to know

The controller drives your fatbike's motor and is usually tucked away in the frame or under the battery holder. Before disconnecting it, take a photo of the existing wiring, so you can then put each plug back in the right place. Always disconnect the battery first before you get started. Cannot manage it yourself or in doubt? Message us on WhatsApp at +31 6 82090642 and we will help you out quickly.

Pro tip: first compare the new controller next to the old one and go through the plugs one by one, so you can be sure everything fits before you connect it.

Software

Difference between restricted and tunable: it is in the software, not in the number of amps.
