I have been given a Bosch battery pack (36V 4AH) that has been used with an electric bike but has failed and no longer charges. The battery output is still good and voltage in very healthy range, so it looks like the thermistor has failed - hence preventing the charger (AL 3620 CV) from charging (it gives an overheat warning).
Simple solution given all the cells are looking good and well balanced, is to replace the NTC thermistor, but I dont know what NTC thermistor I should be using.... 10k, 5k, or some random other one? Does anybody know?
Picture attached for the sake of explanation. Thanks in advance!!
P.s. Why oh why have Bosch glued the PCB into place so thoroughly?! Its horrible to remove and need to be careful about cracking the PCB when unpeeling it from the black casing material.
