2001 Gem e4 died and gave me error code 51. I had it towed home and charged it for 24 hours. Still nothing happening and still getting 51 code. Anyone ever have this??? ---

Error 51 is less than 72V at controller. Check all of your batteries with a meter and make sure all of your connections are tight. Check the voltage going into the controller at B+ and B- (top posts) ---
