I was referring to this section in the wiki. https://openinverter.org/wiki/Lexus_GS450h_Drivetrain

Re: L210 gearbox


Hi together,

I tried spinning up my L210 with the G9200-30132 Inverter. The Inverter came from UK so likely RHD and the Transmission from Europe LHD. Does someone know if the same case applies like for the L110 that the phases are swapped? As written in the Wiki?
All I got in terms of live was ...

Re: [DRIVING] BMW Z3 [FINISHED]


When using the 300h inverter,
, can the temp of mg2, mg2 be reported on the Zombieverter web interface, ?
The "Show Gauges " button starts another Huebner page, which seems blank... am using v 2.15a ,
wondered if you have had better success.

Trying to find how to do this if possible. Thnx

Hi Andy.
In one of your previous posts you had a screen shot of the Simp serial output and it correctly showed the 96 cell voltages. Mine is trying to show 16 cells per module for the 12 modules, so getting a series cell fault. I've tried some different settings for cells, strings, csc variant ...

When I started building the car I couldn't find any BMW HV battery modules in Perth Australia
I decided to make my own battery pack.
I ended up with 85 x 65Ah NMC cells from Alibaba
For BMS I used DIYBMS the open source project by Stuart Pittaway.

Thanks to Zechy I have tried out the work around for the judder experianced in 300h setups and it seems to work and has completley transformed the way the car drives, it's maybe not the ideal solution, maybe re-routing cables and only re-initialising after a number of consecutive errors(as suggested ...

Not much further along to be honest the juddering is still an issue I really need to wait until more vehicles are using the l210 to see if the problem is specific to my installation or a common issue have been doing some work on the chademo charging ...
