Bosch power pack BMS raplacement? Can it be done?

[SwampDonkey]

I have an old Bosch power pack. Id like to gut it and replace the cells and BMS.

Its from a Haibike. Will the pack work like normal with a common 10S ebay BMS? I have a few laying around.

Thanks!

Edit: I mean will the bike run as normal with a battery with an aftermarket BMS?

Probably not work as there most likely is a communication protocol as its a consumer product that they want to limit their liability which is the biggest reasons why they do proprietary systems for consumer safety and liability.

So the bike is dead without an identical battery?

Post a pic of the output of the battery and the connection on the bike side,

Most scooter batteries have tx, rx (not sure I got the acronyms right, canbus????) on the battery port.

I would say that since bosch is a big company with a need to protect its reputation you are most likely shitout of luck. This is one of the reasons why some people stay well well away from those types of companies and build their own ebikes, escooters, emotorbikes.

Do some research in German. Use Google Chrome for live translation. There is a lot regarding this topic:

I made this wiring diagram, to understand how to wire everything up.

Detach: B+ → Balancer [6p] → Balancer [7p] → B-
Attach: B- → B+ → Balancer [7p] → Balancer [6p]




I was able to spot-weld my own mini-pack for testing purposes and successfully hooked it up, like described. Works!

I have repaired several faulty Bosch PowerPack 500 BMSs to working order. I am also interested in the Bosch BMS and the CAN protocol and I have spent many hours on google translate!

Tomblarom - Did you make your test rig to study the CAN protocol? Do you mind me asking what your intentions are?

Swampdonky - If you need a working Bosch Powerpack BMS for building your own pack, I could possibly see about selling you just the BMS if you are intertested in one?

thanks,
Oli.
