It will likely go the same way the Computer/IT industry has gone where the manufacturers are required to demonstrate a certain % responsibly recycled annually. In the IT industry for the major OEMs the requirements for the recycler they use are very stringent related to worker health & safety, the environment and downstream due diligence.  Recycling Lithium Ion batteries can most definitely be profitable for a recycler.

Called dealer today because I had not heard anything (dropped off July 18th). Promised a callback by EOD today (didn't happen) and only info they provided was that they had submitted diagnostic information to ZERO which is something I had done prior to dropping off the bike and also something a technician can do in < 30 minutes if you include all other troubleshooting steps (assuming they're talking about submitting the bike logs). 

Literally the moment I brought my bike in to address this issue the weather turned nice (hot as fballs but not much rain). 

You've got those error codes in normal operating state? 48&49 specifically? (i.e. the bike is functioning fine)

I'm so envious of your ElMoto 2015 road trip. Thanks for documenting it and sharing.

Thanks for the tip - MAYBE I missed it but I swear the two button BMS reset procedure is not referenced in the manual. It's hard to tell whether they are depressed or not...obviously the audible clicks are a good indicator and it's very similar to some computer system "reset" type buttons if you are a hardware techy type - I would think Zero would point out the procedure and clearly in the manual but then maybe they don't want the avg consumer tinkering too much considering liability and what not. Drawn out post to say: it didn't work. Such a bummer - in to the shop it goes. I will be checking fuses this weekend before I make that drive with the last remaining %'s of charge remaining. 

Thanks for the story - looked like a fun adventure. 

Curious about the outcome of your error 49. How was it fixed? Or?

So I drove about 40 miles to work the other day. Charged at work and noticed it only registered 97% charge despite being at above 60% & charging for 5 hr. +. Admittedly I was using an extension cord longer than 25 ft. Didn't think anything of it, drove home fine. I had it sitting uncharged for 3/4 of a day, drove with no problems and then went to charge and it did not recognize being plugged in. This is straight to an outlet with the provided cord. No error lights on the dash initially other than related to motor kill and kickstand down. Scrolled through the display this evening and noticed error 48 & 49. I read about some reset button underneath the seat. I noticed the star bolts are marked  as far as positioning - is this going to affect warranty if I start troubleshooting this myself?
