Wasn't that the point?

You can put the tester on a controller, with the phase/sensors connected to a controller. My tester has some LED's arranged in a circle. If I try to run the controller, the LED's chase each other with one lap around the circle. If I mix up the sensors wires, the LED's will follow a different pattern. Perhaps the original designer knew how to read that pattern, Maybe some time, I'll compare different controllers and see if the pattern is consistent.

THese days. how would I know if my motor or controller works? I plug then into another bike that is working.
