Hello everyone. This is my last attempt before giving up. Contacted Brammo, Polaris, Valance, Victory, old Brammo employees, Ashland Electric Bicycles, solar experts, etc.
Bike was ridden down to 5% battery. When I went to recharge it, it says "CONNECT AC POWER"
I've checked fuses, ANN150 fuse, I've disassembled battery pack and charged at 12 volts. Took my volt meter and verified that there's voltage going to the charger. I tried that little bottom on the ECU meant for when the bike runs too low on power.
Currently, I'm charging it with a 36V 1.5A charger. Only takes about 40 hours (per 3 batteries, meaning an 80 hour full charge) :)
I could get this back on the road with a cheap 72V charger and charge direct without the motorcycle recognizing it - but I worry about balancing cells and battery longevity.
Does someone know these? I feel like I'm pretty well versed on my understanding at this point. Does anyone have an extra charger laying around. Thanks!

hey Gabe, old thread but I'm in the same boat. How did you apply the 12v to charge the batteries? Thats my next try.
