Pull up to 12V the charge door pin- you know if its 12V or if its with a resistance to 12v? I forget the charge port door logic but it is either tied to ground or floating if memory serves. Actually yeah on the i3 its just a on/off switch on the cp door. If we're discussing the charge port's lock (...

Tom, I don't understand what you're asking. I think you asked a question: Reading the documentation on the wiki there is reference to a wake up line that the LIM controls, however in the wiring info on the wiki I cannot find it. Has anyone looked into this wake up functionality if it is a canbus bas...

Cool, Damien, so nice to get a clear answer from someone who knows. I can read docs OK and I came up with the wrong conclusions; I'm glad to get the correct info.

I would want to look at sorting is the ability of the I3 LIM to wake up the rest of the vehicle. Reading the documentation on the wiki there is reference to a wake up line that the LIM controls, however in the wiring info on the wiki I cannot find it. IDK, to me it looks as if terminal 30F is conne...

Again, Thanks!

Thanks for that, I appreciate the time it took to write, and "stating the obvious" is always a good idea as a preface, because here one cannot assume the technical level of your audience. For example, though I've driven an EV for five years, and we also own a 3-year-old Tesla in addition t...

Are you referring to the vehicle side, or the EVSE side? On the EVSE side, I read that user glim1000 (1) (2) mechanically removed the cable lock but left it electrically connected to the vehicle. DCFC must self-test to see if the locking pin is enabled. I did not take the unit apart/remove the locki...

I have a question about charge port locking of CCS1 vs CCS2. The Wiki states : " Only important for Type 2 (3-phase) charge ports. ", which to me implies that the charge port locking feature is not applicable to Type 1 (J1772) and/or CCS (1-phase) ports. Via eBay , I recently purchased a B...

Really good work, raine!

I thank you for your try helping, but I still dont understand if I need a BMS and what would be the required It's hard to think of a scenario where you would be using CCS to charge a battery pack, and not need a BMS involved. The BMS monitors the cells' individual or collective voltages and tempera...

Sorry, SBC = Single Board Computer, ie Arduino, RPi, BeagleBone, STM32 Nucleo-64, etc. A general-purpose processor + supporting hardware and interfaces. The ZombieVerter is nice and flexible and general-purpose too (within its mission to deal only with EV subsystems) but is kind of overkill for what...

- some master programmable VCU to hookup the LIM to the BMS and Feed the LIM with the charge settings. In terms of VCUs, are our choices limited to the two on Damien's site only? I have in mind to add CCS to a OEM/production EV from years ago (RAV4 EV, 2nd Gen), and while it's a Toyota, the CAN lan...

Indeed, now that I have one post approved under my belt, so to speak, the "Edit Profile" menu item is now visible/accessible.

I kind of suspected something like that would happen, but there's no way of knowing beforehand. Thanks.

This will be my first post on this site. I've run my own phpBB board since 2007, so I know my way around them. When I join a new forum, I set up my email preferences, my avatar, and my signature. But, I noticed others on this forum have their Location (country, city, etc.) set, and when I went to se...
