Hi all,
I´m just trying to update the firmware of my V (Li 30 Ah).
I started updating the BMS firmware ver. 53 to ver. 54. At the beginning all seemde to be good, to BMS modules were updated.
Since the second module was updated a message appeared: "Attempting to resume motor controller traffic...", the instrument panel shows "no TS"
The scooter is still on (not Go) the notebook connected, the Canbus-connection is still up.
What can I do now? If I shut down the connection the scooter won´t start again... :-(
Please help! What can I do?

I just looked into the status logger of the scooterdiag.
No problem visible, all 4 BMS boards were updated, the last entry is "Attempting to resume motor controller traffic.."
The FW download window don´t close or change the status of the progress bar...
I´m afraid of powering off the scooter/ the notebook cause I have fear that the scooter won´t start again...
Hoping that someone can give any advice what to do...

Ok, I restarted the scooter, and what happened?
Nothing, all is ok again. :-)
Maybe the scooterdiag hang, I don´t know...
If someone has any advices for the firmaware updates I would be very happy to read as I firstly stopped to do further updates.

The only component that will brick the entire vectrix, if a failed firmware update occur, is the motorcontroller. The BMS update will halt if any BMS board is damaged, but the vectrix will resume without problem.
Hi R,
Is there somthing special to be considered when updating the MC firmware? (except the "normal" things)

Yes Seirmann, a pair of things:
First, read this x-vectrix post:
Secondly, some vectrix were bricked because the Scooterdiag was not properly installed on the computer: An uninstalled program was executed inside a downloaded folder from internet. This faulty program failed to upgrade the firmware properly, bricking the vectrix: ONLY use installed scooterdiag program only.
Third, use a laptop with a good battery, to avoid upgrading interruptions due to aN electric power failure.Oh! and never plug the vectrix and the laptop at the same time, or the laptop will be fried (unless you have a peak canbus adapter with galvanic isolation).
HOpe it helps...
Thanks R!
I´ll attend the advice when updating the other firmwares...
