Changing UITableViewController to UITableView crashes app - ios

Question

I have just changed from a UITableViewController to a UITableView, and everything is working fine, with the exception of the search bar, which when tapping on a key on the keyboard will crash the app with the error:
Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: 'unable to dequeue a cell with identifier rideCell - must register a nib or a class for the identifier or connect a prototype cell in a storyboard'
I haven't changed anything in terms of the code. Someone suggested changing:
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("rideCell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! RideCell
to:
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("rideCell") as! RideCell
but that didn't help at all.
Any suggestions?
EDIT:
Here is my code as requested:

Answer 1

Call next code in viewDidLoad method of view controller that contains your table view:
If you created RideCell in xib:
tableView.registerNib(UINib(nibName: "RideCell", bundle: nil),
forCellReuseIdentifier: "rideCell")
If you created RideCell in code:
tableView.registerClass(RideCell.self, forCellReuseIdentifier: "rideCell")

Answer 2

In your viewDidLoad you have to register the custom cell to your UITableView using this function:
func registerNib(_ nib: UINib,forCellReuseIdentifier identifier: String)
