here my take on the situation....

i would say with 95% confidence is that we are dealing with old car parts here, we don't know why the cars were scrapped and there's a high likelihood many of these motors/gearbox things have done high mileages and have not had fluid changes and probably on their ...

I've got exactly the same noise

I have been running my setup with no problem until yesterday when the motor developed a very high piched noise, any ideas on what could have occurred?..the motor has 4 litters of AWS fluid

I used a window motor from an Audi A4 (cheapest on eBay) connected to where the GS's shift lever used to fit. The PRNDL switch on the side of the gearbox provides feedback telling the motor when to stop turning.

The Audi A4 unit has two relays built in, one for up and one for down, cross wired to ...

I've been running zombieverter with Gs450h and it's a beautiful setup.. Thanks to Damien,Tom and everyone else involved.. I recently changed the manual parking lever intergrated in the motor and now using BMW F30 lever.. I was wondering if theres anyone who has already intergrated the electric ...

That's a handy trick! Unfortunately (fortunately) the lightbulb did not light.

I have been using bare copper wire, but I doubt this is the root of the issue. The wires have no corrosion upon visual inspection, measure 0ohms with a multimeter, and when driving with this issue the internal ...

As always a meter in diode mode will tell you. If it displays 0.7V or so you have found reversed polarity. Or just connect your lab supply, see in which direction it shorts out.

aah,thanks,ive also found out that the compressor is exact part number but my low voltage pinout is on pins 2,4 and 5 ...

I Won't be continuing to use my earlier compressor from a GEN-1 but 92600-3NF0A as it just arrived, thee low voltage connector is well documented by Johu but i couldn't identify the polarity of the HV from this chat, I one can kindly share ,thanks

Wow! Congratulations! I remember the feeling when I first got it running.

Here is my experience. I turn the condenser fan on and off with a four-position (off, plus three evaporator fan speeds) switch. When the switch is on, the compressor and condenser fan also turn on, if wired properly ...

.. A question.. Do you measure the system pressure for on-off control?

are you saying you have have the pack ie 16 modules and have no problem pulling 500amps peak?
or you have all 32 modules doubled up to make 96s.

I have no battery cooling as it was imposible in my setup,so i have 16modules fronT and 16 at the rear,However im in Nairobi Kenya,we are at the ...

Again, why post this in somebody's build thread?!?

Noted.. He's been very helpful.. I'll be posting a different thread on my build

New Zombieverter release by Damien

https://github.com/damienmaguire/Stm32-vcu/releases/tag/2.20a

Tried 2.20 version yesterday my setup is gs450h +zombie.. Having done 11k-miles.. I realised the IVA-shunt was not reading the udc-udc2 as I have wired it in my setup.. Changing to CAN 1/2 made no ...

joeflickers

To also add.. I've updated my ecu with version 2.20.. Same parameters settings as I've been using with version 2.17 and I realised the IVA-shunt is not reading the voltage.. Tried changing to CAN-1 and 2 and same results

I think this protection is implemented generally. But since there are multiple drive system zombie can support that protection is all the way down into the coding of each system code.

I didn't try or even looked for its code. But if it isn't it is a very easy function to add.

Just check real ...

back to my previous comment.

Unfortunately due to how critical and dangerous flying code/bins without traceability like Tom and others pointed i can not and will nor share complete bins nor even full code.

after all your life is at the line here. me and others had close call due to some minor ...

I have the car running and doing way so much stuff for over a year now. sport mode, manual mode, i introduced Auto shifting to the GS450H Zombie code before Tom and Damien do it differently.

as far as i know im the first and only to blend gears in GS450h, this required HW mode on zombieverter ...

here is the code translating the shifter from my zombie code.
there are other stuff incorporated for other things but i believe all what you need is here.

case 0x198:
{
uint32_t GLeaver = data[0] & 0xFFFFFF00; //unsigned int to contain result of message 0x198. Gear selector lever position ...

I Did install e60 facelift shifter and worked it in the zombie code.
I Dont use the wake up message i use the wakeup line and connected to the wakeup line to the power train like a normal e60.

There are other shifters that had been worked by tom and damien form other cars. i got e60 shifter ...

Hi,
I just Noticed this Build, Very Impressive so Far, i wonder how far are you with the progress?

I started working on my Second EV Project about a month ago. and it is an E60 with GS450H :D

so defiantly we can share some knowledge together if you would like.

I managed to figure out the ...
