Re: 2013 leaf pdm zombie vcu

I'm still struggling to find out the WHY in my setup not working. You try this yet? There are people who have the setup working successfully with a full leaf stack and stock Zombie firmware. You could try making it work without talking to the BMS to start. Just to prove it works before making your ...

Re: Can you identify this Outlander item?

It is this one, it is an additional DCDC used for certain extra features it was not standard on all PHEVs

This could also be the option AC output inverter.

Re: BMW 330e pack balancing

thanks - i was just looking at the code and i see what you are saying. It is actually balancing for 2 minutes, then waiting for two minutes, makes sense as you approach the cutoff but I have a long way to go, so i was wondering about altering those timers, at least whilst i'm so far off but i don't...

After a firmware update you need to power cycle the ZombieVerter and check all the settings are correct.

Re: BMW GENERATION 5 packs (IX3 etc) - opening / reuse / reverse engineering

You need to reverse engineer the power supply on the board, look for big caps, diodes and chips with big heat sink or on big pads. then look at datasheets.

Re: Zombieverter Updates

The github has yet to be verified code on it. It is highly WIP and some features might not actually make it into the release so no point shouting about it until things are proven.

Any updates? I've got similar problem with my 2017 Leaf full stack (including LBC) What I have is contactors closing and motor runs, EVSE clicks like it would charge, but no current moving. You also have a leaf pack on the same bus right? Then heavy code modification is required to ensure no ID con...

Cells to module to pack.

Everything is based on heat rejection and cycle life.

Things like cooling, busbars, fuses, connectors and contactors will for sure impact ratings.

Why? GS450h has a way higher prop speed. And also should be the more powerful motors.

The only real upside of the IS300h is the not needing of an externa oil pump.

I've found something odd in the code I think you are using: (this? https://github.com/damienmaguire/Stm32-vcu/blob/master/src/GS450H.cpp ) Thanks for noting this, the Prius 3 is still not fully worked out. Luckily we resolved some issues so it should be ready for a driving vehicle and more testing....

Re: Simp BMS

The standard settings are just "random" you need to set the capacity yourself to what ever works. You can start at name plate and adjust when needed.

Yes that calc works, not 100% required to be accurate not all CCS chargers do anything with the info.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller

So it could be a coding thing meaning using a type 2 LIM will not work with a Type 1 socket. You can always try adding the jumper as per wiki.

Re: Foccci wakeup/sleep discussions

At the moment no, as ran out of pins. So you would need an external VCU to do this, easily done with something like Zombie ;)

Re: Motor doesn't stop [SOLVED]

A leaf motor will keep spinning up with no load. It is designed to work in car so there is compensation to allow it to coast, now when you remove the car load and drivetrain drag the motor just ramps up speed as it does not know the car is missing.

From the DBC file, it bit one that shows PP state, but most likely the three other bits also mean something.

Re: BMW i3 CCS/charge port controller

Oh so you have a Type 2 coded LIM, note the wiki states that the BMW I3 Type 2 does not have a resistance to ground. Try to remove the resistance to ground in the charge port to see if this allows it to operate as you would expect. As you would want the LIM to wake up correctly when the plug gets in...

What is the LED colour that the LIM drives? If it is red it is an issue. I would say check your wiring for Proximity and the grounding on that 6 way connector.

My first time upgrading the Tesla2BMSV2 firmware.
Why are you compiling? There is a .hex you can upload. If you compile your own versions then giving support on any issues is not really possible due to library changes ect.
