Re: Where to obtain this Tesla SDU part?
Reviving old thread, I have the same problem. Anyone know if a replacement is available? I tried the Tesla EPC but it does not have these plastic plates with the hose outlet.

Telsa SDU and VW Beetle question
Hi, I am considering upgrading my Beetle from a Hyper 9 setup to direct drive using a Tesla SDU with a drop-in board.
My questions are, if anyone is running this setup:
What voltage range you are running it at, and
What battery physical configuration have you used (capacity, module choice ...

I have been doing some research on this as well and have added a section at the bottom. Is anyone still actively working on this?

Re: Orion BMS and CCS
Thanks for the confirmation that both can co-exist. I was fairly sure they could, but I'm struggling to find out how the Orion should be configured to have them both enabled.

Re: Orion BMS and CCS
Charging - 12V into charge power from whatever detects the plug and decides that charging is going to happen. Orion configured for the Felten CCS is looking for the CAN message to determine if it is AC or DC charge
and
Way the Orion 2 interprets it is AC current limit is 0xFF means it is not ...

Re: Orion BMS and CCS
My use case is a bit different and I'm still in development, but I have a 'man in the middle' board which I use to send and receive messages from FOCCI and my BMS (the Orion), so I can use that to send the 0xFF value to the Orion. There is a dbc file posted above, I think it's message ID 0x327 0x357 ...

Re: First-Time Config of FOCCI And CCS1 vehicle charging

Re: Hyundai Ionic AE Charge Port Actuator wiring help needed [SOLVED]
I assume a switch and maybe one or two resistors. Just add an ohm-meter to the two non-motor pins and use your 12V to turn the motor to both ends.
Yep, you are correct. Once the lock is fully extended we see 1K appear across the feedback wires (red and yellow).

Whilst sniffing traffic from Clara and trying to get my head around the ESP32 Web interface tool I note that Clara broadcasts two CAN message IDs, as shown below. IDs 0x596 and 0x616. What are these message please?

Re: First-Time Config of FOCCI And CCS1 vehicle charging
Thanks Johu. It did come from you so should have that CHAdeMO mapping. I'll try the refreshing as you suggest because so far the mapping page is empty (not sure I'm using it correctly, so I will double check).

Can I just check: the FOCCCI wiki page shows the pinout of versions 4.5 and below, whereas the 4.5b version referred to in the quoted post is 'new' and not currently shown in the wiki page (as of today at least)?
