Hi y’all! A friend of mine brought me a rear wheel from his old ebike. I have some tools at home but they wont work in this case. When pedaling, the bike doesn’t move lol I guess the pawls of the freehub are stuck or broken?
How would I go about repairing it?
Thank you!

It looks like that’s a freewheel and you have cassette removal tools? You will need a freewheel tool
Unfortunately you have the wrong tool, to remove a freewheel type cassette you need one without that rod in the middle as the tool goes inside the brown bearing bit. To help you find the right tool check [this](https://www.parktool.com/en-us/blog/repair-help/freewheel-removal-and-installation).
As for why the bike isn’t moving there could be lots of reasons, can you be more specific on what’s not moving? Is it the entire wheel or just the cassette?
