In my country the gs450h is a rare car, my oversea supplier supplied me with the wrong inverter combo, following the wiki i wired it wrongly since i assumed it might be the same configuration with the gs45oh OEM converter

Just relaised I did not confirm my inverter part number, I received the motor and inverter from different vendors.. This particular one is for a Gs600h

Looks like you connected the HV wrong, it is before the booster and you have fried the 12V DCDC and possibly done more damage. You need to connect to the Inverter bus and not the Battery bus. 😏I've just learnt something after this - I have not being using the correct inveter for my motor and as Dam...

Is it? I had realised this, I got the motor and inverter and motor from different car breakers

Did you do anything before it blew? Any more details on what was going on before it failed? It looks like the 12V dcdc melted... I've been driving the cars for about 3 weeks, today I drove the cars quite hard on the main highway, suddenly the ceased and few seconds later there was smoke from the in...

Hi,ive been running my car with zombie and gs450h with its inverter not sure what happened but the inverter blew, shared are the internals of the inverter,what would have gone wrong, could it be that I connected the bus bars incorrectly and not having bypassed the DC-DC converter?

What is your battery voltage and your precharge dc switch voltage settings? I also get this error (thottle12diff) on when throttle is pressed below half, could you be having a solution for this?

Hi Joe, very interested to hear more about your w124 with gs450h running gear as I bought two gs450h packages I'm using one for the slk230 swap and was planning the other for my 1990 300ce-24 "c124" w124 conversion... do you have a build thread for your 124?? Cheers Mike. unfortunately I ...

I am planning to do some testing next week with a build with GS450h. Other vehicles configurations are also being tested by Damien, he will create a release once all testing is done. Note the GS450h testing requires the removal of regen blocking in the GS450h code. I'm using the zombie and I realis...

This is what I bought. Paid $100 I believe. https://www.ebay.com/itm/225442479775?hash=item347d6b3e9f:g:5AMAAOSw5PFj94uR&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8LmLzfaCcgjGWx3RZE2Z%2Bd7nALVHC68o7We7lA670nJfDVFbGDEYRon9LCejkzyyhIOT3QFtaDSoiYVFOvcGqmfyuGhJtW8hXpUKL2xeXuI5jxG2aDizsBboCrKkQRS9DWCBSSP1fRc%2B5%2FHO0j0...

Damien is going to test it now. First tests concluded with an outlander rear inverter.

How is the test so far? Do we have regen success with the gs450?

FWIW I ported the GS450h throttle map code from the GS450h VCU software to the Zombieverter for use in my E46 + GS450h project. Use at your own risk it bypasses most of the current/voltage/etc protection code but drives smoothly and has regen: https://github.com/streber42/Stm32-vcu/tree/gs450h_vcu_...

You can't use these contactors as an active safety item in a DIY conversion as they are unable to cut the currents we use. When the precharge works perfectly and you never switch off a contactor under load, as in their original carefully controlled and tested OEM application, they work fine. In a D...

To confirm, I finally have a new working oilpump controller and pump running very smoothly as compared to the previous one, controller hardly gets hot and the pump is very quite.. I believe the previous unit must have been faulty.. Thanks for everyone for assistance and anyone else who might face si...

You don't really need to connect the gearbox solenoid connector at all, unless you want to be able to change between Low and High. I run my oil pump at 35% and I've never noticed any slipping. You can try turning off the PWM when MG1_spd gets over a certain point (say 1000rpm), but not sure how suc...

im buying another oilpump controller, I'll compare the two for any indeferences

at what voltage are you running your pump and at what battery voltage?

Do you have a way to measure the supply voltage to the oil pump controller? If the voltage is low the current will likely go up to run it. my setup is running in between 12.8-13.8 volts,I am using Nissan leaf DC-DC converter ..does the zombie vcu run the oil pump all the time or there is a way to c...

Was not keen on the bearings i used for replacement, do you think low quality bearings are a cause of problem?

I replaced all the bearings with new ones as I had read they are a common failure point, the bearing I replaced had no problem they seemed to spin freely

Hi, I'm running the gs450h with the zombie verter vcu running on software version 2.0..the issue I have is that the oil pump controller really get hot and turns off after sometime guess it has thermo shutdown. I have not yet wired the gearbox connector to the vcu (sp+sp- etc).. The question I have i...
