2011 XU fault flash
« on: October 30, 2013, 03:30:29 AM »

Hi guys I need some assistance. My 2011 XU has been working flawlessly for 2000 km but today I had a glitch. I had a cut out no throttle for several minutes and power cycles. When finally it stopped flashing. The code was . .. . .. . .. . ..

Thanks in advance...

Figured it out the . .. . .. means the battery charger connected?? well it was removed from the bike, so not the charger... I did add a connection to remove the charger from the bike. I think it got gummed up with some dirt and mud causing the circuit to think there was a power source connected some how. I will make a cover for it so it won't happen again.   

Cheers Jerry

ON the top of the battery, If the 3 pins white and the black connector  (on the side of the red) are shorted with salt water the BMS might detect a charger presence.
Not 100% sure...

I thinks so too. Mud maybe too, or some other electrolyte in the mud. Anyways it went away no more issues now i have a cap on the connection to prevent this from happening again.


Thanks Doc
