U00BA88 — Fast-charge CAN bus off

Battery Management System (BMS) Applies to: Aiways U5 Safety-related system

Have it inspected before further driving

Quick answer

U00BA88 indicates that the battery management system has lost the CAN link used for DC fast charging, so fast charging is not possible.

What to check first

  • Read all stored fault codes with a scan tool and deal with related codes first.
  • High-voltage system: do not open or disconnect high-voltage components. Refer the car to a technician qualified for high-voltage work.

Can I still drive?

Have it inspected before further driving. If in doubt, park the car and ask a technician — a fault that limits power or shuts the high-voltage system down will not clear by itself.
