Issues
Power Turns Off When Driving
...
- Could be a loose connection that gets jiggled when hitting bumps.
Observations:
- Noticed that the ground connector at the base of the battery was not very tight. Compressed the connections to ensure that they connect better when attached to the bike.
...
- Capacity test resulted with a battery capacity of 8.67Ah. Looks good.
