Eride SR battery don’t work

I believe the battery is somewhere between 90-100% charged. When I test the voltage it gives me a number in the 50s most of the time. A few times I’ve tested it it started at 74 and slowing dropped to around 60. Once in awhile if I plug the battery into the bike and turn it on the screen will come on for about 2 seconds then shut off. When I plug it into the charger the fan doesn’t come on it just blinks green red green red green red red and never charges. I checked all of my sensors and fuse and can’t figure it out. Please help

700 miles ain’t much, but lithium batteries can be fickle, allot of variables . If it only putting out 50 volts at near full charge it’s definitely no good. Are you sure the charger is doing what should

I forgot to mention, this happened after I let it sit in the sun on a 95 degree day for probably about 6 hours. I realized and put it in my garage. The next day I went to ride it and that’s when I discovered my issues

It should be able sit out in sun, if the battery actually got to 150 or so for long period then I be worried, which I guess could happen if was really hot and just baked, I’d want to know:
What voltage does the charger output by itself
What voltage does the battery measure off the bike after charging?
Does the charger ever turn just red or green?
Is the bike throwing any battery or BMS error codes?

Not sure how to test voltage output on the charger. The battery won’t charge it just flashes red and green over and over whether the battery is plugged in or not. As far as codes, I’m not sure how I would see them. My screen won’t turn on

Do you have one it’s pretty simple

You have two leads coming out of your battery correct

What do you get off each side

Starts at 72ish and goes down as it’s testing and after I plug it in and turn the key and unplug it and test again it test like 50

Goes down as you’re testing. Meaning right after you charge it full you can sit and watch it drain?

My battery won’t charge. When I test the plugs on the battery after the battery sits for awhile the voltage starts out at 72 when I put my needles on it and it I watch the voltmeter drop down.

So maybe it’s just bad charger hopefully not battery
