ZForce 800 EX, 53 & Trail / High Voltage Warning?
July 11, 2022, 07:19:03 PM
Hi folks,

I just bought a 2022 Z-force 800 Trail model.  I've put 120km (pavement) and 5km (off road).  I went to wash it the other day and it wouldn't start.  I turn the key and here the fuel pump noise,  the dash lights up as normal, everything works fine,  then I go to start... *click*.  I try again...  *click*.    I hear the sound of the starter solenoid engaging but the engine doesn't turn over.  I check the battery with a high end charger.  Its showing 12.8v and 100% charge.  I check the terminals,  they are tight.  I check the main fuse under the seat,  that's connected.  I check the engine grounding wire, its attached.  I check all the fuses with a volt meter, they are intact. I checked the starter pins with a tester,  no faulty ground.  I even disconnected the battery and let it sit for a few hours to see if something would reset itself...  nope.

Then I notice a blinking light on the dash.  Its giving me code 0563 which in the 2017 models means high voltage warning.  I looked in the manual and see no reference or explanation for any codes.  I tried googling it, and I'm unable to find code info relating to the 2022 models.  I emailed the dealer for advice.  They are located 2.5 hours away and I would really rather not trailer it back to them if its something I can fix myself.

I don't really know what my next steps are.  I feel like I've checked everything I possibly can.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
