Re: Renault Zoe BMS

Wow! Found a typo in my code when comparing it to yours. Now I got the right readings! Got to finish my PV storage project now to stop my wife from complaining......before I sit down and try to decode the rest ;) So finaly: Many, many thanks to you. Your hints led me in the right direction. Would ha...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

Still my records don't correlate with anything I've seen so far. When I read that the 0x445 records hold information about highest and lowest cell voltage, I thougt that having only those two values would be efficient for my task: Monitoring the pack not to damage cells. So I tried decoding these re...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

WOW that must have been a LOT of work to build this table! Funny that the 0x155 messages in the battery tab are completely unknown. These are the messages I'm receiving from the BMS in masses. I tried to decode the few 0x445 messages with the help of this table but with no luck. The easyest test wou...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

Woleg: Your hint with the 0x423 was key to receiving back data from the BMS. Now I've been studying CANlogs for about a week but with no result. All the findings of other people on the web are about the Nissan Leaf BMS, but as it seems this is VERY different from the Kangoo's. Using the well documen...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

Well, because connecting an ELM327 directly to the BMS-CAN and using CANZE did not work, I decided to go with the Arduino. The BMS-CAN seems to use different IDs. The packets CANZE sends do only work when connected to the OBD-CAN. So Woleg's hint with the 0x423... was essential. Finaly I could find ...

Re: Renault Kangoo BMS

Took me some time to get an Arduino with a CAN-shield up and running and receiving data from the BMS. Your hint with the 100ms "clock" was THE key-information! Now this looks promising but the BMS stops responding to the 0x423 payload: [0x33, 0x00, 0xFF, 0xFF, 0x00, 0xE0, 0x00, 0x00] after...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

Yeah, thanks for the hint. Indeed I did already check this but I did it again (you never know...) and it's OK. Because I am connecting to the BMS's CAN, maybe I'd need another protocol ? Unfortunately nobody ever noted anything about the BMS-CAN. It looks like the BMS is simply dead. But for me it's...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

0x423 needs to be sent every 100ms like clockwork. Thanks Woleg - sure this is important. Unfortunately it seems that I haven't found the correct protocol yet. 11Bit ID/500kbaud (ISO15765-4) does not work. Leads to "can-error". So sending the 0x423 is still out of sight for me... I'd like...

Re: Renault Zoe BMS

OK so solved that somewhat. Thanks to paaa I used one of the can logs and found that it wakes up and starts sending data when I send 0x423 and then stops again after the log is turned off. Now to work out what everything means.. Phil Did you connect to the bms-CAN directly ? Which protocol and baud...
