Koga/Intuvia problem

Hi there,

I've been using my Koga with the Bosch Intuvia and the 400w battery on the rear rack.
Although I've done about 4000m on it over the last 4 years I haven't used it for 3 months.
When I hopped on it today and turned the HMI on I had no MPH display and no drive.
I cleaned the contacts of the HMI and the battery, did a hard reset on the battery by taking it off and pressing the button for 30secs but it didn't cure the problem.
Finally I pressed the button on the battery while it was on the bike and it sprang to life!
Now, everytime I stop and the HMI unit times out I have to press the battery button to turn the bike on.
It's not the HMI as I have a spare one I carry.
Any ideas?

Regards

Hasn't it always been like that? I have a 2014 Cube with the Intuvia display, and that's what I have to do to make mine spring to life. I bought it second hand tho, so don't know if it has always been this way.

Nope, mine always came on when you pressed the on button on the head unit. However I road it yesterday until the battery was less then half full, then charged it inside the house, in the warm. Put it on the bike this morning and it now works as it did before! Maybe it's a battery charge/temperature thing.
