Battery not charging
BMS Shut down

large battery connector
Improper connection at charge port
Check continuity between battery and
charge port
Clicking sound from the
gearbox when rolling or
pedalling backwards
This is 100% normal and is nothing to
be concerned about. Some gears are
more prone to this than others but
again it is nothing to be concerned
about

BMS RESET PROCEDURE
The BMS (Battery Management System) fitted to your bike maintains a healthy battery by monitoring each individual
cell inside the battery pack and ensuring that the battery operates within its safe working limits.
In the event that a fault is detected, the BMS will override all other systems within the bike and shut down in order to
protect the battery pack. This condition may be caused by overcharging, over discharging, short circuit, overheating,
physical damage or cell imbalance (if a cell is defective).
In the event of a BMS shut down, there will be very little power present within the system. Turning the ignition key on
may have no effect and connecting the charger to the bike will also be ineffective.
In this instance a BMS reset may be necessary. The following steps will initiate a BMS reset and in most cases restart
the BMS.
1)
Ensure key is switched to the “Off” position or removed from the bike.
2)
Remove side panel.
3)
Disconnect main battery cable (Large rectangular connector).
4)
Leave charge connector (small green/red connector) in place.
5)
Connect charger (the charging process should begin).
6)
Reconnect the main battery cable.
7)
Reinstall the side panel.
