What causes an electric tricycle to jerk?
2 Answers
Reasons include loose or burnt motor wires; insufficient battery power, or loose/bad connections in the battery wiring. Below is relevant information: Electric vehicle: An electric vehicle, also known as an electrically driven vehicle, is categorized into AC electric vehicles and DC electric vehicles. Typically, electric vehicles use batteries as their energy source, converting electrical energy into mechanical motion through components like controllers and motors, with speed adjusted by controlling current magnitude. Driver's license: Officially termed as a motor vehicle driving license, commonly known as a "driver's license," it is a legally required certification for operating motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires specific skills, and lacking such skills while driving recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, individuals cannot drive on public roads without this license.
I've been riding an electric tricycle for many years and have encountered jerky movements quite a few times, mostly caused by battery issues. When the battery is low or aging, unstable current can easily lead to this. It's recommended to first check if the battery gauge is full and how long a single charge lasts—if it's shorter than usual, charge it. Loose battery connections should not be overlooked either; shake them by hand to see if they're tight, as oxidation over time can lead to poor contact. Poor-quality chargers with unstable output voltage are also a common cause—try switching to a different brand. Don’t forget routine maintenance: avoid deep discharges to extend battery life, and regular checks can save a lot of trouble. Battery performance drops quickly in hot environments, so avoid long trips on extremely hot days.
