What It Means
The "LCD Communication Error" occurs when the controller does not receive normal data communication from the LCD display for an extended period. This error affects Pedego's Interceptor, City Commuter, Ridge Rider, Trail Tracker, and Platinum models.
Possible Causes
-
The LCD cable is not properly connected.
-
The LCD cable is damaged.
-
The LCD communication circuit has failed.
-
The controller’s communication circuit has failed.
How to Fix It
-
Check the LCD cable connection – Ensure the LCD cable is securely plugged in at both ends. Unplug and reconnect it to confirm a solid connection.
-
Inspect the LCD cable for damage – Look for any signs of fraying, cuts, or wear. Replace the LCD cable if necessary.
-
Replace the LCD display – If the cable appears undamaged but the error persists, the LCD itself may be faulty and need replacement.
-
Replace the controller – If none of the above steps work, the issue may be with the controller's communication circuit, requiring a replacement.
Preventive Measures

Regularly check LCD cable connections to ensure they are secure.
