Hi all
Im in a bit of a pickle with my second hand electric 6speed c-line. Its almost 3 years old, and a half year in my possession. Since a week i get the x-x-x-x-O blinking errorcode on my battery.
The battery charged at work during the day until full but when i wanted to leave, the blinkinh started. The lights, front and back, still work as well.
Im quite handy and cant afford to mis my bike very long so i immediatly ordered a new front wheel (with motor) to test if this was the issue. I just installed it but the error stayed. My money was on the wheel because i have sometimes experiences some of the issues linked to moisture in the motor. So i anticipated having to replace this somewhere in the coming year. However now it seems this is not the issue, i now ask what do you guys think it is ?
Maybe its the electric cable block thing in the front or the battery, or maybe the electric thing in my pedal axis? I dont know.
I cant miss my bike at the moment so for now im considering just putting in a normal wheel and taping of the electric cabling.
Thanks for your help!

That error code suggests reset, I’d be surprised if it’s the battery or motor. Assume you’ve tried switching on and off a few times and cleaning the terminals?

Your first fix was an [$1100](https://us.brompton.com/p/1034/electric-front-wheel-with-hub-motor-and-fixings) wheel!
I love my electric but one of the downsides is that battery issues like this have to go through Brompton or an authorized dealer. The cost shouldn’t be anywhere near $1100 though unless you need to replace the battery (new battery = [$800](https://us.brompton.com/p/732/8.55ah-battery-for-brompton-electric)).
