When I bought my GEM it was dead, dead, dead so even if I got the smallest of charge to enable the dash to light up it still showed a single red solid bar.
Once I started getting the lithiums in there and doing some testing I figured I’d see the dashboard battery meter go up but it still shows one single, sad, red line even with fully charged batteries.
Where should I be looking to fix this one? A controller issue? Potentially a disconnected wire someplace for thi function?
I’ve checked individual cells and they are all exactly at 4.1 with no dead or low cells so I don’t think it’s that. What do the pros say?
hey diymatt,
i been doing what you said about reseting the SOC,.
but when i put it back in charge after loosing couple Green Bar its stay where i left but the charger shows the green light …
i must redo the action dayly !!
why is it doing that, my batterie are brand new and original GEM Deka gel maintenance free
yes they are getting charge and i do the daily 20 to 25 miles like i always did the display stop showing the statue of charge one day for no reason i do it manually like you said every day to keep a track and put the trip to 0 but its getting annoying i’m pretty sure its something in the setting ??
do you have any other option in the odometer i could change …
like batt or a other one than the SOC.
