BT LPE200 Error e106

HI there

I have a BT LPE 200 which uses the curtis 1243 sep ex controller

I have had this error code e106 appear a few times after the customer charged the battery without topping it up. it states over field problem. Now it has failed completely, the truck powers up ok as soon as i try drive it, then it drops out the line with error e106.

I was thinking along the lines controller fault however have had the controller stripped and checked seems ok. I have been told it may be the battery causing the problems ( even though battery reads ok).

Has anyone come across this problem before related to the battery and this error?

Regards

Hi and thanks for the advice

I have asked the customer to get the battery people out to it first just to make sure everything is ok in that department first.

Will update once confirmed.

E106

Description
Digital outputs short-circuited or exceeding field current limit.

Possible error cause:

Problem regulating the field current.
Internal monitoring error.
Action

1.Check the output for main contactor K10 (A1/4), check cabling and contacts and measure ohms for the coil. Value 25-30 ohm. Check the output for the brake coil K10 (A1/3), check cabling and contacts and measure ohms for the coil. Value 13-15 ohm.

2.Check the output for horn (A1/7), check cabling and contacts.

3.Check the drive motor's shunt winding and cabling and contacts. Unfortunately it is not possible to measure ohms for the field winding using a standard universal instrument, since the winding has a value as low as 0.3 ohm.

Remember that a worn out / defective battery causes all sorts of odd errors to show up on a CAN BUS system like this.

Hi electrodrive.
I had once a similar problem in a LPE 200\8 and the main contactor was "welded".had to replace the contacts and the PTC resistor (was burned to).
Does the pump motor runs ok?

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
