Now that you've separated all the log outputs, try forwarding it to Zero customer service in case they can corroborate.
Your cell voltages are at least in a nice place at the last reading.
Aside: I wish I could say whether those several PL536 failures are worth serious consideration or ignorable at the rate they're occurring.
(Now I'm regretting not documenting the BMS console commands while I still had a working bike. I'll see if I can get that from past notes and files.)
Overall, the reboot failure would (to me) indicate the need for a BMS replacement, assuming you've already disconnected the onboard charger and maybe other systems.
Good evening -- I appreciate your input on this. I have not forwarded the logs yet to Zero customer service department yet, but I will put that on my to-do list. The bike got dropped off at the local dealer last Friday (the 8th) but they have historically had lots of problems working on Zero bikes, and apparently as well with successfully communicating with Zero tech support many times in the past (both the factory and the dealer have pointed fingers at each other claiming that the other won't return calls), so I am not very hopeful.
Today the dealer said he'll try to contact Zero, we'll see. If they're unable to make progress I may take the bike back and try to get a truck and take it to a dealer in another city.
The last time I spoke with Zero customer service they referred me to the local dealer even when I had explained this problem before, so I was under the impression that they were no longer accepting calls from customers and instead are communicating only with dealers, which is a shame.
I have not found hardly any info about the PL536 errors when I have tried to google them. Any thoughts what could cause this problem? The bike already had the BMS replaced once, a month after I bought it, and had more BMS errors later on again that the dealer said was related to a loose connector, but they haven't been able to update the firmware when I've brought it to them before.
The on-board charger (and the Y-cable for the QuiQ chargers) were both disconnected, with no difference.
Do you know if Zero considers the BMS board to be covered under the "battery warranty" ? I certainly hope so!
Has anyone else had more than one BMS board replaced?
The only thing non-OEM about my bike has been quick charging (EVTricity charger) through a (fused) quick-charge cable attached to the controller terminals in conjunction with using QuiQ chargers on the factory accessory charge port, but no overriding of the 1C charge limit or anything like that.
