Hi Louman! I forgot. you wrote a while ago. I forgot to respond. I had run out of microcontrollers, and I placed an order for more but they aren't here yet.

The bms will be posted. I have a thread for it, but I've been slacking on that.

How old is your chip? If it's the earlier version, when the 12v is powering the control board, the light could be off if the code wasn't running (like if an error, such as no throttle, no current sensor, etc...). Now, when there's no throttle and no sensor, it blinks. The old chip blinked when everything was hooked up right.

You could check pin 15. That's the pwm pin. My guess is that it will show 0v. Do you have a serial port on your computer? You could see what version it is that way.
