What is a remote lithium battery BMS repair?
A remote lithium battery BMS repair is a file service that restores Audi and Porsche 12V / 48V lithium batteries whose Battery Management System has locked after a crash event, deep discharge or voltage drop. You read the BMS data, send the file, and receive a processed file back — from any country.
The BMS protects the lithium cells. When it detects a crash signal or a voltage below its safety threshold it can enter a locked or protected state, which prevents normal battery operation even when the hardware is still functional. Clearing that state in the file means the battery can often return to service instead of being replaced.
What are the symptoms of a locked BMS?
- Battery not charging or entering protection mode
- Battery refuses a jump-start or trickle charge after the car has been stored
- 48V system faults on mild-hybrid vehicles
- BMS lock conditions after an accident or safety event
- BMS locked due to deep discharge or voltage drop
Why won't a normal charger wake the battery up?
These are not lead-acid batteries. The integrated BMS can open its internal switch and disconnect the external terminals from the cells. A charger or jump-starter on the terminals then has nothing to charge. The lock is stored in the BMS data, which is why the file has to be processed before the battery behaves normally again.
| Cause | What happens in the BMS |
|---|---|
| Crash event | A crash or safety event is recorded and the BMS locks the battery. |
| Deep discharge | Voltage falls below the safety threshold during storage or a parasitic drain; the BMS enters protection. |
| Voltage instability | A voltage drop or system shutdown leaves the BMS in a locked state. |
How does the remote BMS repair work?
- Contact on WhatsAppSend the vehicle, battery part number, symptoms and your country.
- Compatibility confirmedWe confirm whether the battery system is supported before you send anything.
- Battery check & file readingAssess the battery condition, then read the BMS data. Guidance is provided if needed.
- File sentYou send the original file and complete payment.
- Processed file returnedYou receive the processed file and write it back to the BMS.
What do you need to send?
- Vehicle model and year
- Battery part number (12V or 48V)
- Symptoms and history — crash, storage, deep discharge
- The original BMS file
Offline file services do not require the VAGHAUS LB Connect Agent — that software is only used for live remote sessions.
