Battery overcurrent protection triggered
The battery's overcurrent protection has tripped, combined with a communication error towards the bike system, and no system functions will start. Causes range from loose cables to a short circuit in the wiring or a battery fault. The dealer needs to check all connections; if the error remains, deeper diagnosis of battery and wiring is required.
