Three days ago…running with all bars lite. Slowed down and all bars go immediately to the red and into turtle mode…error code 15…low charge. Recharge and all fine until….
Today…after a mile. Immediate stop of electricity and immediate no power. Beeping sound…error code 88 very lightly in display….could barely see it .
Seems more electrical than drive.
Thanks
an update…li let it sit for an hour or so and problem went away. I guess overheating was the cause. Now the question is why overheating
Well…when I couldn’t find error code 88 in any gem publication. The error code I found was for a treadmill…ooops. But seems to hold true
It would be helpful if you provide some details about your car.
Year,
Batteries,
any mods?
When was the last time you did a full battery check-up?
How old are they? Properly watered? Balanced?
Are all your connections shiny, clean and tight?
That is usually what causes power glitches like the one you describe.
For example- This is NOT a pic of a clean battery connection.
Here is another example of why you should at least lift your seat for a look around every now and then.

You should always lift the seat .
