    2018 Redshift engine shuts when throttle released

    First off, welcome to the forum. Your search skills will get better. Secondly, what Alta do you have? Is it a MXR? EXR? MX? that will help for diagnosis. Also since your saying there are no errors what could be happening is either the throttle is acting up and not sending a correct signal to...

    MX to EX / Kickstand Warning

    That plugs into the kickstand plug receptacle. Which is part of the lighting harness kit which connects to the ACM. The blanking plug is a part that came with only the MX and MXRs. There should be enough slack if the kickstand sensor is routed behind the battery, under the skid frame and then...

    MX to EX / Kickstand Warning

    @Philip - Gotcha, sounds like you used the jumper which came with the bike and mechanically installed the kickstand. Just need to remember if and when that kickstand is down....

    MX to EX / Kickstand Warning

    The fact the bike is throwing the 'raise kickstand' error means its detecting the sensor without the magnet. Try flipping the sensor so that the wire is pointed downwards.

    MX to EX / Kickstand Warning

    @Philip what do you mean you dont need the kickstand sensor harness? Yes on the MX and MXRs you need to remove the dummy plug. But in order for the kickstand to work you need that sensor +magnet???

    MX to EX / Kickstand Warning

    Which way did you put the sensor?

    MX to EX / Kickstand Warning

    I would follow this diy guide from the forum on how to assemble the kickstand. Do you have the hardware kit? https://electricdirtriders.com/threads/mxr-kickstand.72/#post-389 Here is a photo of the kickstand (Front and back)

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    They have stringent rules for vehicles. Being that its a brand new vehicle it has to go through all the homologation reqs and electrical tests (especially electrical) before a world make idenfier can be given to the manufacturer (im curious what Stark will get) For the US, it is not as...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    One other factor to take note of..Homologation. They need to validate the vehicle with the DOT, EU and also any other governing bodies. The EU has very strict and stringent rules which take...time. Also I dont see ABS on these bikes, which means there off road only...unless the plan a dual sport...

    Alta - Stark rant

    So as @snydes said, there is a whole trove and knowledge base on this forum of how to support and work on the bikes. (Wish it was more efficent...) In terms of component support: Screen - Easily buildable and repairable. The V2 display kit has been runable for x2 years now. Also this year im...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    Heres one thing to take note. Cells (18650s - 21700s) are hard to procure and allocate. Doesnt matter if your part of the big auto industry or your a po-dunk garage, the cell manufacturers are really stacking on whos building what. From all videos Stark is using Molicel. Molicel has lead-times...

    An A to R conversion requires a few components. - R vehicle harness - R battery - R HV connections (semi findable) It also requires a inverter swap on the HVIL (high voltage interlock) to allow this to be possible. @E-Bro Now unless this dealer has done the full swap I would be curious on...

    Alta Redshift EX bike dead after left charging overnight with key on.

    Back before we launched the R bikes, we had a batch of bad BRD boards (these are the smaller boards which act as relays/comms devices between the LTC chip on the HVPCBA to the BCU) which could lead to corner case condition which leaves the dc-dc live and kills the Vicor (DC-DC) We tried to get...

    Alta Redshift EX bike dead after left charging overnight with key on.

    In our troubleshooting paths, we never used that line for troubleshooting. Over time realizing the architecture of the Alta harness, it makes sense that this function works (the former member Mark911 even used this process). One note I would like to make as @JP racing said, DO NOT use this...

    Alta Redshift EX bike dead after left charging overnight with key on.

    Your correct, there are cases where the bike is turned off completely and the ACM is still being commanded to power on. Ive seen enough cases of the the bike being left on to indicate that potential issue.

    Alta Redshift EX bike dead after left charging overnight with key on.

    Check your PM. If I recall the intent was not to leave the bike on while charging. That can potentially leave the BCU in a run condition which can fry the critical 12V components along with the DCDC. This is usually why the bike "dies".

    VCell Timeout

    @privateer703 I would definitely confirm the connection before ruling out the module failing.

    Is this the bike was on the Alta Forum on FB? If so the codes were clearly reported on that bike. PM sent

    Screen is black/wont charge.

    Sounds like the top cover board failed. PM sent.
