Does this pack really work with same can messages as Hyundai Kona? Can someone confirm?

In my case, diode test failed on one phase. So it might be different for you then..

Re: SDU Board error message overcurrent

I have had overcurrent error that comes immediately when switch direction to D or R when I broke my LDU with regen. Contactors got lifted during regen and one phase got fried. Had to get new motor to "fix" that. Maybe something similar accidentally happened to your SDU?

Re: SDU Board error message overcurrent

At least on LDU the minimum voltage seems to be around 220, if you go lower on voltage, power is immediately cut to like 25% and you can feel that there is some kind of limp mode/failsafe mode that it enters. Immediately when voltage goes up, power returns. Running SDU with 50V.. I would think that ...

Re: Info on BMW hybrid battery packs?

More info. So reading those bytes as 16 bit little endian to get value around 10000 when everything is ok. Once + or - value starts to deviate enough, there is a problem. SBox runs test cycle for -40v -> +40v with some logic, and this test cycle can take like 20-30 seconds. There seems to be some ...

I tested some of those messages that you found, but X5 battery does not have all of them. I was able to use those balancing bits.

Re: BMW BMS Message 0x080

Full id assignment and swapping the modules in daisy chain got rid of the 0x10 error. The other issue I mentioned in other thread was solved by finding hard coded module amount when requesting voltages.

Re: BMW BMS Message 0x080


Also if the BMS modules go into fault states they need to be reset, is also in the SimpBMS code.


I'm getting error state for 0x10 for 3 modules. I was checking SimpBMS code but clearing faults is commented out

Re: BMW BMS modules

Ahh! Solved it! It was a lone "6" in the code where it sends voltage requests for bms master.

Changing this to 12 made it work. (In BMWPhevBMS.ino, line around 3333)

Re: BMW BMS modules

It might be that they preconfigure all those cards with same firmware that needs to be coded/paired with the car. So by default it would be only for 6 and that's why it's finding the modules but not showing voltages or temps correctly. I guess the next question is: what can messages they might be ...

Re: BMW BMS modules

Running my Teensy 4.1 fork of your BMWPhevBMS version https://github.com/amattila/BMWPhevBMS-Teensy41/

That csc master is only sold for newer BMW X5 45e, which has 12 modules. So I would think it's configured for 12 by default.

Got lucky and my local BMW dealer had that exact same master csc with same part number (200€). So I plugged it in and can-bus is back alive. Now testing with SimpBMS, I can see all 12 modules appear, but voltages and temps only for first 6 modules.

Most likely needs coding in a full pack and possibly car before its happy.


Hopefully not. I guess nobody has tried to swap that before.

But yeah, in worst case, it could be that even used one might need some coding with the car. That would be practically impossible. This mistake might have ...

Yeah, you need to have the Arduino+Can shield permanently working in the car, emulating the Mini canbus messages. You can't just enable it once, even if it would work for a while without can communication.
