RideTheBeep Posted October 24 Posted October 24 I was trying to trolley my mten5 up some stairs and it spun out and shut down. The issue is that it won't start again and is emitting a constant lie volume beep while being turned off(no lights and not balancing). Did anyone have any idea how to fix this? 1 Quote
RideTheBeep Posted October 24 Author Posted October 24 I have tried disconnecting the battery, but it starts beeping as soon as I connect it... 1 Quote

bird Posted October 24 Posted October 24 Sounds possibly like the BMS alarm? Was the Mten5 fully charged when you rolled up the stairs? You may have overcharged the cells in the process if so. Quote

kintips Posted October 24 Posted October 24 to discharge the capacitors press the on button multiple times when its unplugged Quote
RideTheBeep Posted October 24 Author Posted October 24 I've tried discharging capacitors. Didn't change anything. The BMS warning sounded like an interesting possibility. How do i discharge the battery safely? 1 Quote
bird Posted October 25 Posted October 25 (edited) That kind of sounds like the BMS alarm based on the other videos of it I have heard. Unfortunately I can't recommend what to do here. Being stuck with the BMS alarm going off in my small apartment was always a concern of mine with newer Begode wheels, so I am curious to learn what to do as well. Hopefully it is something more benign... Good luck! Edited October 25 by bird Quote
RideTheBeep Posted October 25 Author Posted October 25 I've disconnected the battery for now until I figured out a solution. Can't imagine them being more than marginally overcharged if that's the case as it took just a few seconds for it to occur. Quote
