6-7
If the throttle is disabled while riding, the motorcycle
will cease to provide power, and the operator must
pull over to a safe location.
All conditions which would cause the BMS to disable
the throttle are also signaled by an error beep pattern
at self-test. If you suspect that the BMS has disabled
the throttle control on your motorcycle, turn the key
switch OFF and back ON again to enter self-test
mode. The beep-pattern from the BMS will report any
of the error-conditions which would cause the BMS to
disable the throttle.
Each of these conditions, the associated self-test
beep pattern, and the suggested remedies, are
discussed in Understanding Beep Sequences on
page 6-3.

The Charger-Disable Interlock
When the charger is attached and plugged-in to AC
power, the BMS communicates with the charger. The
BMS can send a signal to the charger requesting that
charging terminates immediately. When the charger is
disabled, the indicator-lights on the charger will show
that charging has stopped.
There are two conditions that will cause the BMS to
disable charging. One of these conditions is also
reported by a self-test-result beep-pattern; the other is
not.
Too Hot
If the BMS detects high internal power pack-
temperatures, it will both disable the throttle and
prevent charging. This condition is also reported by
an error-beep pattern after BMS self-test when the
motorcycle is turned-on. See Understanding Beep
Sequences on page 6-3 for a description of the Too
Hot error-beep and the solutions.
