Hello amped,
Sorry to hear about the issue you are experiencing. I have read your post, downloaded the data files and am in the process of examining the data. With some feedback from others I will send an email to you with the results and a good plan of action going forward.

I will advise as soon as possible so that we can get your electric motorcycle experience buzzing around town again. Have a great day and stay tuned...

Kurt

Thanks Kurt, any help is greatly appreciated.

I'd like to have a plan of action and where to start looking before I start pulling components off so I'm not removing things unless it's necessary.

A diagram of where things are supposed to be located would help greatly if something like that exist.

Greetings Joker,

And apologies to those who may have followed this subject waiting for me to post a solution to my problem. I was planning to write out a detailed process of the steps I went through but suffice to say I never got around to it.

It eventually turned out out to be a blown fuse for the main battery pack marked "ANN150" I initially dismissed it as a possible problem because I erroneously thought it was a shunt, this was due to my own lack of knowledge on the components and a huge lack of information about the bike itself. Brammo apparently never published a service manual. There was a fear at one point in discussions with Brammo that it may have been a defective VCU for which no replacement part exist in the known universe unless you come across another Enertia to raid parts off of.

The fuse is 150a rated fuse, is white and rectangular in shape with a tiny oblong window in the center of its face whose purpose is to visually tell if the fuse is blown, if this window is opaque the fuse is likely blown, to test it you must disconnect it from the system and to do this safely you must disconnect the big red battery pack connector located near the upper right side of the frame rail under the top tank body panel. To check the fuse you must remove the lower body panel, the fuse is located and fastened to the front side of the very bottom of the frame, being careful not to touch any other part of the bike with the wrench or ratchet your using, unbolt the fuse not the holder and test the fuse. I was able to find a replacement fuse for $10 on ebay, while your under the bike check the the fuse holder and make certain it's not loose, mine was loose and may have been the cause for the fuse blowing. Once you have reinstalled the fuse, reconnect the red battery pack connector and look at the instrument panel, you should now see the flashing red led operating again, good indication that the bike bike has power again, reconnect the tank power switch and cycle through a normal start sequence to make sure everything is working before reinstalling all the body panels.

Hope this helps, good luck!
