Perfect, it works! Tomorrow I'll wire everything up and report back on how it all works together.
Thank you so much, you made my day!

Re: Tesla charger in conjunction with Orion BMS not charging
Yes, so I've now flashed the custom firmware, but as soon as I connect the charging cable, the A1 pin isn't pulled to ground. I need it to switch a relay to supply the Orion BMS2 (charge power pin), and also to activate the VCU on pin 50 GP12vin so that the pumps run.

Re: Tesla charger in conjunction with Orion BMS not charging
Won't that drain the 12V battery if it's constantly switched on?
Does your software do that?
Unfortunately, compiling isn't working for me, I have no idea why.

Re: Tesla charger in conjunction with Orion BMS not charging
I've already tried that, the problem is that the contactors need to be closed to start the charging process. Unfortunately, it seems that output A6 only becomes active when there's voltage present, in order to control a relay so that the BMS and the zombie go into charging mode. Or am I doing ...

Tesla charger in conjunction with Orion BMS not charging
I'm having a pretty big problem with charging. I have the Orion BMS2 and the Tesla Gen2 charger (V1.19). I've connected the proxy and pilot to the BMS. As soon as it's plugged in, it activates the charging pin and switches on the Tesla charger via pin A3. The same pin is also fed to the Zombieverter ...

Re: AC charging with the VCU
Oh, so pins A3 and B1 are also permanently connected to 12V. I thought the Zombie would then send the enable signal to pin A3.
Yes, Zombie works as it should; it turns on the contactors and water pumps as soon as it goes into operation or charging mode.

Yes, it worked standalone, but I don't have any HV battery connected at the moment and the IVT shunt is missing, could that be the problem?

Hi, there's some news. Unfortunately, it's not working as expected. When I plug in the charging cable, nothing happens. A1 doesn't connect to GND. In the settings for A3, I set the input to High. However, if I set the settings to Low, the Zombie turns on the pumps and the relays close as soon as the ...

Re: AC charging with the VCU
Yes, charging works. My only problem is that I always have to turn the ignition key to the ignition on first so that the relays close and the charger is supplied with 12V and the pumps start. But I can't do that at public chargers, otherwise the car is gone. I would like to simply lock the car and ...

Re: AC charging with the VCU
Unfortunately, I can't imagine how to get the charger to start charging. I thought the proxpilot signal detects that a charging cable is connected and then simply closes the contactors and starts the respective charger.

Hi,

Re: Tesla Charger Support thread gen2/gen3
I investigated further. If I only connect the 12-pin connector to the control unit, I measure exactly 120 ohms on the module between pins 5 and 6. If I then connect the 20-pin connector to the control unit, I only have half that, i.e. 60 ohms. When I then switch it on, the resistance jumps between ...
