Hi David, I am trying to unlock my V10 pack with your firmware and a pi 2. After running I get this error. 20240619_132926 "Unlock Failed" "Unable to unlock pack" Then it aborts. Thanks.

Hi,

It's most likely a connection issue - there is insulating varnish on the pin-holes that needs to be carefully removed to ensure good contact.

Hmmm, I've resoldered all the connections and I'm still getting the error. The pack flashes 5 red lights when it is attempting/unable to unlock. Thanks.

For anyone else with this issue, I followed another users comment and wired the 3.3v lead. This made the programming successful. Thanks for your work on this project David!

Hi,

I'm really pleased it worked, but surprised that it needs the 3.3v supplied externally.

I had advised against it as there's a small risk that the 3.3v regulator on the board might backfeed the vReg on the Pi. Or potentially vice versa.

But if it works....!
