In the case of a bricked BMS/battery, STLinking can save the battery from needing to be replaced in some instances.
For this process you will need:
- Windows computer
- STLink (Decent quality clones will work)
- Tools to disassemble the scooter and access the ESC
- Dupont male/female jumper cables
This process can be dangerous if done incorrectly so take caution when performing these steps and make sure you use a computer you are comfortable possibly destroying.
If you short a battery line you could end up blowing up your STLink, Computer, and more or even causing a fire.
Accessing the Debug Pins
Accessing the Battery
Start by removing the 18 Security Torx T-15 screws on the bottom.

Using an M4 Allen/Hex wrench or bit, remove the two screws holding the ESC in place.

Carefully unplug each of the connectors.
You may need to scrape more rubber potting compound away from some of the connectors in order to unplug them.
Battery Dissassembly
9 Phillips head screws hold the top cover in place.
These are EXTREMELY easy to strip so take care.
