Re: Tesla Charger Support thread gen2/gen3

The contol board from Tesla Gen3 charger

Not sure is anyone is interrested, but I have "extracted" the control module and took some pistures. As I did not want to remove the phase modules and completely strip the charger (as I believe its working), I took sligtly different approach.
The board did ...

Re: Tesla Charger Support thread gen2/gen3

Hi All,

Please can someone clarify "Activate" and "Eanble" signals?

The Gen 3 charger Wiki pagehas this picture image.png which suggest that pin 3 is the activate and it needs 3V signal, but the table under suggest pin 3 to be low and pin 4 to have 3V.

I have connected my charger and when pin 3 ...

Re: Tesla Charger Support thread gen2/gen3


Is there a way to use the Tesla OBC Gen 3 for fast charging??


I guess that depends on what "fast charging " means for you.

I'm working on a DIY DC charger project where the plan is go use pyPLC combined with tesla gen3 charger (one to start with) to have 18kw charging capability at home for a ...

Re: Teardown MG MG5 combined charging init

hi Tom91,

I had busy weekend, but I can report some progress on this.

So first I just powered up the unit with 12V and did get messages consistent with Damians log. I have also managed to figure out meaning of some of them (wil attach my notes).

Then I have enabled HV DC and sent the two messages ...

Re: Teardown MG MG5 combined charging init

No luck getting this unit to do anything useful.
I have another unit (same part number) and I'm trying to replicate what Damien did in his video. Unfortunately no luck so far getting it to do DC/DC to change the 12v bat. Did not get around to try V2L or hv battery charging yet.

Can anyone help ...

Re: Teardown MG MG5 combined charging init

I think it is the same unit, but Damian will have to confirm is unit is also EP2CCU6625A.

Once I test what is still working, I will probably try to get the PCB off to dig deeper (especialy if nothing is working).

Not the best idea ever, as due to the cover being glued on, it was hard work and i have damaged the unit a bit.
So I'm sharing info/pics, so you don't have to repeat my ...
