Earth Day , too bad my Pie doesn't work , Bikemad found the problem

 Alan ,Thanks again . Gary and I are starting to communicate . I tried it yesterday after the reverse charge with my old charger the light was still green when plugged in to the charge port . I will try again later today . Rod

[Rodmiami]

Alan , just as I thought , they don't make that battery anymore . Even though it is still under warranty . Gary is going to check and see if he has a matching BMS , I sent him a photo this morning . The serial numbers are easy to read on the photo . We'll see what happens . The battery only charges through the Anderson connector . My concern is that the cells will not level out . Rod

Bikemad if you are out there. The charger actually went from red to green in the reverse mode ( using the Anderson connector as a charge port ) indicating a full charge . I turn it off when I notice that the charge is full , simply turn off the key . Then in couple of hours I turn on the key switch , if it goes red I wait till it turns green again . I am trying to balance the battery , letting it rest . With a full charge the bike performs as before . The charge port still does not work . Rod

This  is an update on the BMS problem that I had . Gary / GM no longer have Lithium ion batteries nor do they  have replacement BMS's . Gary offered me a discount on a LiPo4 battery so I took it . Thanks Gary . I feel for Gary, its like he is the go to guy if you have a problem with a GM product and hopefully he is being covered in his expenditures from GM . Rod

Actually China's opinion is "we no longer can supply any replacements for those batteries. Just offer him a discount on a new one"

The discount comes from my pocket not theirs. I just didn't want to leave you at a loss as I do care about my customers.

Unlikely but China did and their reply was back in reply number three of this thread

  Really sorry ,so the best buy to the dealers.

I assume this means if you want service buy from the dealers.
