Basically, my friend had just gotten his brand new Mini XRT and we test drove it for the first time. He's very happy with it but after 20 minutes it didn't want to drive, only steer. A red light was blinking under the chassis. We were unsure if it was overheating or low battery warning, and we still don't know. We have put the battery on charge for like combined time of 4 hours and trying every time the light on the charger showed a steady green. Each time we got it off the charger, it drove för like 2 minutes and started blinking again and when we put it on the charger it still only blinks once. The ecu still just blinks red, and even shuts off almost immediately even with the unit cold.

It is also worth mentioning that you can't accelerate away with the wheels turned, and if you give it slight gas, steer and let go of the gas it still goes forward as long as it is turned.

Thanks in advance
