I've made a set of electrical schematics for the bike, which are available on the Unofficial Manual: https://zeromanual.com/wiki/S_Platform/Schematic.


Thanks i'll take a look at this, it looks like I may have to take the box apart :(

The key switch itself can fail.  Have you tested for continuity through it?

We do get one beep when we turn the key so I dont think it'd be the key switch. But regardless i'd like to test it, do you know when I can measure the continuity off it?

It beeps once when you first turn the key but nothing after. No lights flashing either. Yea I'm confident the display and everything would work if we hooked up a 12V to it so I'm afraid you could be right and it could be inside the battery box

My 2010 Zero charges fine, but when we turn the key nothing happens. The dash doesn't light up and we are unable to move.

I've replaced the fuses twice, it has a full charge will good pack voltage, and I'm honestly stumped,

Any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks!

Yeah but which each day off the charger it'll only get worse.
I have tried to remove the charger for awhile but it hasn't helped.
Since I have been frantically looking for a new charger to try, we are located in Southwestern Ontario if that helps

For anyone who was curious as to the resolution of this, the Battery Charger and BMS system was unfortunately fried as there appears to be a short somewhere in the electrical components of it.  It was likely because of a connection of the cables for even a fraction of a second when the cable hit the tire.  Fortunately an authorized Zero dealer was able to purchase the Battery Charger for $388 and it looks like it's really easy to install (4-6 nuts and some cable snaking).

Congrats, could you tell me which Zero Dealer that was by chance?

Thanks for the info! I unplugged the connector between the charger and the battery and inserted two wires into the battery-side of the connector. The voltage was 44V, do you think that is high enough for the MBB?

The bike will turn on and run but immediately gives the beep code for low voltage (4 short beeps, 1 long beep) despite being plugged in all night. When it is plugged in the charger has the 6-red-flashes error which the manual says is an internal charger fault.

I'm thinking the Delta-Q Quiq charger needs to be replaced. I've read that you can't just buy a new delta-Q because it needs to be programmed for Zero motorcycles, but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy a programmed one. Do you know if there's a way I can fix my current charger? or program a new one myself?

« on: June 17, 2020, 12:24:19 AM »
I am unable to charge my Zero. Was working great but after taking the motor out to align the sprocket the electronics stopped working. Very shortly after the bike began refusing to charge. I am getting the red exclamation fault on the charger, and the fuses seem okay.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks!

edit: This issue was solved on the Facebook Zero Owners Group, the solution was to replace all the 4 tube fuses on the back of the battery box and hook the bike back up to power. This solved every problem we faced. Cheers.
