Error 25 on Bafang DP E170 / E180 / E181 Display

In plain English

Torque sensors measure how hard you push on the pedals and match the motor's help to it. This code means that signal is missing or out of range. Check the connections, then leave the sensor to a shop.

Work from the top. Steps go from free and easy to shop jobs. Switch the bike off before touching any connector. Tick each step as you go. Your progress is saved on this device.

1. 1Restart the system firstFree Bafang's manual says to restart first whenever an error code appears: switch the system off, wait a few seconds, then switch it back on. If the code doesn't go away, carry on with the steps below.
2. 2Unplug and check the main connectorsEasy Switch off and remove the battery. Find the round waterproof plugs along the cables (usually near the handlebar, down the frame and near the motor). Pull each one apart, look for bent pins, water, green corrosion or melted plastic, then push it back together fully with the arrows lined up.
3. 3Dry the bike out if it got wetModerate If the problem started after rain or washing, remove the battery and leave the bike somewhere warm and dry for 24 to 48 hours, then test again.
4. 4Have the sensor replacedShop job If the sensor is damaged or still faulty after these checks, a shop can test and replace it.
