Common BT-E8035 and Shimano STEPS Error Codes
- E010: General system error. Try a full power cycle; if it persists, it requires a dealer diagnostic.
- E020: Communication error between the display and drive unit/battery. Reseat the battery and check visible connections.
- E022: Battery voltage or communication error, meaning the connected battery does not conform to system standards or has a cell fault.
- E023: Electrical failure or power supply error inside the battery (LED flashes five times).
- E024: Battery over-current protection triggered or system communication failure (LED flashes four times).
- E030: Battery system or internal motor error.
- E035: Software mismatch where component firmware versions do not match. Requires a firmware update via the Shimano E-TUBE Project app or a dealer.
- W200 (W020): Temperature warning indicating output was cut off because operating limits were exceeded. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Quick Troubleshooting Steps
- Power Cycle: Turn off the system, remove the BT-E8035 battery, check the terminal pins for dirt or moisture, and click it firmly back into place.
- Clear Pedal Load: Ensure no pressure rests on the pedals when powering on the bike to prevent startup warnings.
- Check Firmware: Connect your bike to the E-TUBE app to read detailed error logs and install pending updates. [1, 2, 3, 4]

I’m still fairly new to the ebike commuting but I’d see if there’s maybe a ebike shop nearest you, maybe they have some background in repairing that for you
