First off let me say thanks for all the great information available on this forum.

Following the advise of the Zero factory, I leave the on board charger plugged in always. The other morning I checked the bike (I check it a lot as I am not too keen leaving Li on batteries on charge unattended) and discover the dash display totally nutting up! All the indicator lights going on and off, graphs going up and down, etc. I swear, if it had buzzers they would have been going off to. I pulled the cord and everything kept going nuts, cycled the key a couple of times and it settled down. I rode it up and down the driveway and plugged it back in and everything is fine. It came up to 100% and has been plugged in for three days now with no problems.

Has anyone else had this happen with a 2016 Zero? Any idea what happened?

Check your logs, sounds like a canbus networking boot up error perhaps.

My 2014 S did the same thing last week for the first time ever.  I looked up the codes in the manual and it said that the charger failed a "self-test".  I unplugged the charger, let it sit for a day, rode the bike around and plugged it back in.  Everything is back to normal again.  Hopefully the charger doesn't try another "self-test".
