Error Codes: Alpha | Alpha S (2021-2023)Updated 22 days ago

If your First Generation hub-motor Vvolt ebike displays any of the following codes on the Xplova EH-02 display, please consult the following chart. Should you not be able to resolve the issue on your own, please email us at [email protected] for guidance! 

Here is a rundown of the most common error codes we've seen:

E001

The most common error code we've seen is E001 -- the HMI communication fault -- it looks like this on your display: 

This is most often the result of a communication fault between the handlebar display and in-bike controller, although it can be the result of pinched wires, broken pins, or a faulty battery. Fear not -- we're here to help. Reach out to [email protected] and we'll work through solutions with you!

E001HMI Communication Error Signal Interference caused by HMI receiving duplicate data packets from battery and controllerContact Vvolt 
11Battery - Cell Over Voltage 
Reboot battery
12Battery- Cell Under Voltage 
Reboot battery
13Battery - System Under VoltageMotor has detected too low voltage. Potentially occurs when battery is low and assist level is high and working hard. Ensure battery is charged then try steps to the right1. Check the battery voltage and fully charge the battery.
2. Check whether the wire between HMI and motor is damaged
4. Update motor firmware
5. Replace motor
