You are a star. This finally solved all my battery charging issues. Well done Raz. I tried other videos but this one solved. Luckily i didn’t blow fuses. It only charged to 83% then went green.

Thanks Raz for your clarification, why not buy a 42.2 volt and 3 A charger? wil this lower the capacity? the cals are 3,6 volt (10 serie) and 4 parallel.... each cell has a capacity of 3500mah so you cannot fill them? am i right? the risk appears because the cells are not ballanced anymore (during years and useage) what is your expeariance when the batteries are getting worse? how many loads? is it possible to see how many loads your battery has? sorry for the questions but your movies inspire me ;) tnx!

Thanks very much Raz! I'm in the US (Minnesota). I started having problems with my S3 right at the time Vanmoof filed for bankruptcy. My wife's X3 works fine. I just did the fix on both of the chargers. I'm pretty sure the error on the S3 at the time was E4, but since then no error messages show and it wouldn't respond at all. I was not able to put any charge on it or get anything on the display until I recently found a low voltage adapter that seemed to work. The charge symbol showed on the digital display, but it doesn't seem to be adding any charge. Now the digital display only shows half the symbols - the right side of the display is blank. You think I need a new module? I haven't removed the battery yet to see if the fuse is blown. Thanks for any input/ideas you may have.

Hi again Raz. I removed the battery, did the reset you described in another video. I don't have the equipment or know how to test the battery. I visually inspected everything and the fuse and the other components around look fine with no discoloration or cracks, etc. There was no change after I reinstalled the battery. Today the digital display is not working at all. Di you have any contacts in the US Midwestern states that might be able to work on my S3? Thanks

Thanks for your videos! They're great. Do you recommend doing this for all Vanmoof S3 bikes? Any shot there is a third party charger I could by that already has this set up?

Hi I have a question? My cartridge is dead totaly, I charged the battery 3.7 v and nothing changed. In the battery is 10kohm ntc thermistor. The resistance was 9 kohm in the temperature about 25 degrees. Do you think it can be problem of thermistor?

So if I lower the voltage to the minimum, does that mean it will only charge up until 85%? I didn’t get that statement right with the percentages. Nevertheless thank you very much for your help

Have you encountered such a thing that when you replace the same fuse, it immediately blows out?, I have already burned 3.. and determined that the small transistor (340n08) constantly supplies voltage to the central contact of the fuse
