Help Needed - Carerra Impel 1.1

[CraigCardiff84]

Hi All,

So I've had my impel since August, had no issues apart from the battery charger deciding when it wants to charge, Halfords have said nothing wrong... but (my bro in law has same bike had 7 new chargers in 12 months) but anyway last few days I've cycled to work and the control unit has been flashing red whilst - cycling - losing power (even though I know sufficient battery - had to reboot bike for motor to kick in) checked the hyena app and I had error codes for battery firmware update, I have done the update last night and all seemed fine... until this morning... I know have attached pic of error code

Has anyone had same or similar issues? If it's knackered surely it's covered by the 12 month warranty??

I should also add the bike is stored inside, not outside in all weather's

Buying a bike with a computer in the battery is asking for trouble.
Spray off the contacts of battery and dock with contact cleaner. For sale in electrical department at some home improvement stores. Warning, contact cleaner is flammable, use outside 2 m away from any flame, sparks or switches.
If you can't get contact cleaner brake cleaner from auto supply will work. Also extremely flammable.
Then retry.
No luck, follow instructions, When you get tired of burning money to solve flaky electrical problems, scrap the bike. I will not buy a car nearing the 11 year boundary because of flaky electrical problems. My brother just flogged off a Chevy diesel pickup that sometimes would not start. Of course it never happened at the dealer. When refineries want electrical sense circuits to work reliably they operate them at 48 v and 50 milliamps. The Army uses 24 v and gold plated contacts.
