Nice!!

So we're still waiting to see if a replacement dash and mainboard will get one operating like OEM? I have a feeling this will end up where ideally you choose a Spin for its stock dash (it really shouldn't be different than a replacement) and slapping in a new mainboard will get it working after some rewiring ;)

What if we are looking at this wrong, we are just looking at one end of the cable that’s plugged into the controller, what about the other end of the cable that plugs into the board, I’m thinking they could be cross wired and that’s why some people are blowing boards or getting error codes :ugeek:
They are cross wired for sure I've taken my multimeter out and put on continuity and just checked where they went from the end that connects into the controller and the end that goes into your dash you're all mixed up you have to ohm it out and switch them around

I will tell you guys what I know to maybe relieve some anxiety

I am in a discord group that’s working on the Lyft max and the obstacle now is that even with new ESC and Dash the BMS (battery) supposedly randomly shuts down. So it has some kind of software in it that shuts down after replacement of controller and dash.

They are working on a fix for it.
Good news is that I think they are also working on a flash for the Lyft controllers.

I’ll keep you updated as I learn.

That will be awesome. So is the BMS flashable? Sucks to not be able to use it. I swapped out the batteries/ esc/dash for m365 ones, works great but obviously the native max environment.

The OEM firmwares have been uploaded and can be flashed. You will also have to change the connection between the dashboard and controller as documented earlier in this post back to stock. Spin scooters need no modification for the wiring.

A tutorial for flashing the dashboard can be found here:
https://www.scooterhacking.org/forum/vi ... f=26&t=208

Here is how to connect the controller to an ST-Link:

Just leave it powered on through the scooter to flash. After flashing the ESC the controller needs to be activated similarly to the ES4 controllers. If you flash the dashboard with BLE555 you should be able to use ES4 applications like Ninebot Flasher and ESDownG as well.

It is mandatory to flash the BMS for Lyft scooters by the way, otherwise they will not work

CFW is also available now:
