So we have an issue with the 03 code appearing on the controller display which will clear by turning on and off but will re appear again either sooner or later.....
Thinking that it would be issues with the diodes in the motor assembly I decided to check everything else before stripping the motor.
So I put the bike in a repair stand and connected a thumb control for ease. The bike worked flawlessly for sometime even with a brake slightly applied to mimic a #load# on the motor. Thinking that the issue may be a bad cable connection and or a cable break that is disrupted while the bike is jostled around while travelling, I commenced jostling all the cables and associated plugs etc but to no avail as I couldn't make the system fail. At that point I jostled the battery around in its mount over the the back wheel and sure enough the bike failed on a 03 error. So I repeated the process a few times and sure enough it kept failing..... so I then thought it may have been an intermittent "break" in the plug socket pin connections as it seemed associated with sliding the battery in and out of location, so I checked them and sprung one pin over to improve the positive connection between the pins but the fault still appeared. In fact the fault appeared at one point and then refused to clear regardless of jostling. So thinking the issue may reside within the battery box I have opened it up but can see nothing that would give issues other than possibly the charge control and monitoring pcbs.
So the question is ....is there anything that could generate a03 error in or around the battery box or am I barking up the wrong tree.....?
