Hi All.
New to the forum, so be gentle😂
So my bike is a Giant Fast Road 2+E, bought in March 23, so still has 1 month warranty.
In April 23 the bikes power failed during a ride. I took it to the dealer and they fitted a new battery. All seemed fine but it wasnt until someone else rode my bike ( they had the same model), that they said its not right. The fault was the bike would switch off if i lowered the assist below the eco (1), i thought thats what it should do and didnt question it, as it was the first electric bike i rode.
So back to the dealers in Aug 24. They gave me it back saying they couldnt find anything wrong with it, and said they updated the software?
Earlier this week it kept shutting off, even with light assistance. Today it seemed to be ok as i was in 52km, and still had 46% and was on a slight incline so set it to eco, and within 100 mt it switched off. It switched on when i tried 10 mins later but immediatly switched off.
I stopped, too the battery out, and it wasnt hot, i felt the motor and it wasnt hot.
The error light was flashing and it was on L4 which in the manual is blank. Any ideas what it could be?

I have a 2021 Stance E+2 Bought in Jan 2021.
3 months later it developed a power off issue. Tried shim on the battery connector, controller replacement, and battery.
Giant ended up replacing the bike and battery. They put my existing wheels/bars/set/pedals on it.
It's been rock solid for 4 years now.
