EMehari Battery Sensor Issue

I have a 2018 Citroen EMehari (electric engine) with 151246 km. The engine feels weak when starting, and the lights flicker. I suspect a battery problem, but it's relatively new. Could it be a bad battery sensor?

Your symptoms appear indicative of a failing voltage sensor. I encountered a similar situation with my previous BMW. Weak starts and erratic electrical behavior are common. Have you done any vehicle diagnostics?

I've done a basic check with an OBD2 scanner, but it didn't show any specific error codes related to the battery. Could you tell me more about your BMW experience and which component was broken?

In my case, further diagnostics revealed a defective battery sensor. The sensor was providing incorrect voltage readings, causing the car's electrical system to behave erratically. Given your symptoms and the lack of specific error codes, I would recommend a comprehensive test at a qualified workshop.

I took it to a local garage, and they confirmed it was indeed a bad battery sensor. The repair cost me 315€, but now everything is working perfectly. I appreciate the help!
