Bafang error 09: Motor phase fault
High severity Service soon
Can I ride home with this error?
Ride with caution. Pedal without assist only if the wheel or cranks turn freely; stop if the motor drags or locks.
What it means
The power wires between the controller and the motor have a fault, so the motor cannot be driven correctly.

- Faulty motor winding
- Loose or corroded connector
Symptoms

How to fix it

- Check the motor cable for damage you can see.
- Do not open the motor.
- Take the bike to your dealer; Bafang's manual says the motor needs replacing.
