What it means
In the Xiaomi Electric Scooter 6 Pro table, code 54 is battery high temperature protection during charging. The battery management system measures pack temperature and stops charging if it is too high. Xiaomi lists excessive load, continuous hill climbing and very high ambient temperature as triggers. If the code shows with a cool battery, Xiaomi points to the temperature sensor or its circuit and suggests replacing the BMS or battery. The code alone does not prove a fault.
