Regen Braking not working

Hello!

I have a flipsky 75100 and I am trying to use regen with my 1500w direct drive motor. I have the max regen amps at -30 and the same with max battery regen amps. I have my brake levers set up correctly and have even tried setting the ADC input to make my throttle act as a brake after center voltage. After all this the bike does not regen under braking. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Typically you use two throttles, one on the ADC1 for acceleration and the other one on the ADC2 for regen braking. Choose the correct mode in VESC-Tool and you should be good.

Choose Current No Reverse Brake ADC2 for this setup.

This did not work sadly. There was no clicks or whirrs or anything it just cut power then didn't regen. Any more ideas for stuff I could try?
