Throttle Disable Interlock
The BMS communicates with the main motorcycle control
module. The BMS can send a signal to the main
motorcycle controller requesting that the throttle control on
the motorcycle be disabled. When the throttle control is
disabled, the motor will not deliver power to the rear wheel,
and the motorcycle cannot be ridden.
If the throttle is disabled while riding,
the motorcycle will
cease to provide power, and the operator must pull over to
a safe location.
All conditions which would cause the BMS to disable the
throttle are also signaled by a flash code pattern at
self-test. If you suspect that the BMS has disabled the
throttle control on your motorcycle, turn the key switch
OFF and back ON again to enter self-test mode. The flash
code pattern from the BMS reports any of the error
conditions which would cause the BMS to disable the
throttle.
Each of these conditions, the
associated self-test flash
code pattern, and the suggested remedies are discussed
in Understanding BMS Flash Code Patterns on page
6.11.

Charger-Disable Interlock
When the charger is attached and plugged in to AC power,
th
e BMS communicates with the charger. The BMS can
send a signal to the charger requesting that charging
terminates immediately. When the charger is disabled, the
indicator lights on the charger displays that charging has
stopped.
There are two conditions that cause the BMS to disable
chargi
ng:
1. Too hot
The BMS detects an internal power pack temperature
above 131°F (55°C).
2. Too cold
The BMS detects an internal power pack temperature
b
elow 32°F (0°C).
