And precharge


Did you have to cycle the key to get the code to clear? If so, it makes me think Vref fault, or throttle fault.

If it just went away from heating, I would say high pedal lockout. For this you would have to check your throttle and throttle settings. Dd you ever calibrate the throttle? If not, you might be right on the edge of going into throttle fail.

If you have a laptop an can get some data from the controller it would be great to see what's going on on start up.
