I've recently purchased a bike with a 600w BMC Thunderbolt rear hub motor.
I was sent the wrong controller & just got the right one today. It's a crystalyte 36-72volt 40amp.

When I hook it up to the bike, the motor makes sound like it's working but does not move.

I'm hoping this an easy fix. Out of sequence or something along these lines.
Does anyone know how I should start to attack the problem?

this sounds like the motor's cables are not correctly connected with the controller, you need to contact the seller asking for a right wiring diagram.

That's what I thought as well.
Been playing phone tag with the seller but hopefully will be able to fix it today.
