Hi I am now changing my gel batteries to  a pack of 16  lipo4 3.2v  batteries 48v pack.

install the BMS 250a 16s according  instruction but the BMS wont start the batteries checked and the pack gives about 56v.

did make a short between P-  and B- and nothing happen..

Can anyone gives me clue how to ?

Did not attached the controller as connecting to the batt only should work.

Awaiting your reply

Bob

    Your battery will not come alive until it is connected to a charging source. After connecting the controller try jumping it again to wake up the controller.

    Soc screen should show how much current is going into the battery or is exiting the battery. Is it charging?

    I would imagine it would come on only when it needs to.

    I cannot still get it working on my cellular although I did pair it with my bluetooth it gives two codes that both will not work. Do you something about that?

    I'd be just guessing, sorry. The fan shouldn't be working Is all I can say. If you are pushing the BMS hard I guess it would come on. I have a Daly BMS without any bluetooth so that's no help but I will say I have never heard the fan working in two years now. I wouldn't worry.
