sla battery changed for lifepo4 24v 30a goped esr

I recently upgraded my goped esr battery(sla)for (ping)lifepo4 24v 30a battery(see specs under).Put the red/black(thick) on the controller wires and the thin wires to the charger,with no one on it it works just fine(normal and turbo) but when i'm driving with it and when i want to go fast it just turns off i have to put it off and on and then it do just the same.Is there anyone who knows what the problem is because i want to drive with it soon on my holiday 22052010581.jpg thanx

Its the BMS complaining about the high(ish) current draw.
they are a bit over cautious.

simple fix is to have the bms power a contactor (a kilovac EV200 is my favourite), rather than have the main power wires running through it.
that means:
the BMS no longer protects from overcurrent (not really an issue anyway)
the BMS still protects from overdischarge and overcharge
the BMS is less likely to fry silicon in the event of sustained high currents.

connect like so:

a contactor is much like a relay.
theres two small signal wires, and two heavy wires for the switch.
