Battery and electrical safety. Lithium-ion batteries can catch fire if they're damaged or charged wrong. Never open a battery pack, and stop using any battery that's swollen, hot, wet or smells burnt. Every edit to this page is checked by a second person before it goes live.

This page covers the Lectric XP4, the XPeak 2.0 (high step and step thru) and the XP Trike 2. All three manuals print the same code table. The bike watches its own parts, and when it finds a fault the code pops up on the display as an E with three digits, or HOT for heat (XP4 manual, XPeak 2.0 manual, XP Trike 2 manual). Older Lectric models have their own manuals and code tables, so use this list only for these three bikes.

A code that points at the motor, controller, wiring or battery is an electrical fault. Do only the plug checks on this page, with the bike off and the battery removed, and leave opening the motor, controller or battery, soldering or rewiring to a pro or the maker's support. See battery won't charge and when to call a pro.

Codes

  • Error E003: pedal assist sensor fault. Check the PAS quick plug. What to check
  • Error E006: battery undervoltage. Charge the battery fully. What to check
  • Error E007: motor fault. Check the motor quick plug.
  • Error E008: throttle fault. Check the throttle quick plug.
  • Error E009: controller fault. Check the controller connections, or have a shop do it.
  • Error E010: display communication reception failure. Check the display quick plug. What to check
  • Error E011: display communication send failure. Check the display quick plug. What to check
  • HOT: high temperature fault. Stop riding and let the bike cool.

Before you call a shop

  • Switch the bike off before touching any plug.
  • Lectric's quick plugs come apart with a straight pull, no twisting. Line up the arrows on both halves and push until fully seated (Lectric E008).
  • Some plugs sit under plastic wrap along the cable, so unwind it gently to reach them.
  • For E006, charge fully on the Lectric charger before anything else.
  • If the code stays after the plug check, contact Lectric support. Leave the controller panel and anything inside the battery to Lectric or a shop.
