Re: VW electric coolant heater

muehlpower, thank you for all your work on this. Seeing the spec of the heater being upto 5/7kW. The LIN control message only has on byte for power level request, this means we can only request 2.5kW. Has anyone been able to get more out of the heater then the 2.5kW. Is it possible that Byte one con...

Re: Peugeot E-Boxer NMC cells reuse modules.

Please get details of the chip, better picture and markings on it.

This looks like some ISO-SPI comms.

Re: BMW GENERATION 5 packs (IX3 etc) - opening / reuse / reverse engineering

Like this pack?

viewtopic.php?t=4763

These packs do not use CAN internally but a protocol unique to the chips used int the BMS.

If you label and disconnect the CSC connectors and open it to take a better pictures of the PCB we can analyse it further.

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3

Slight issue with this is that the final XOR for making the command correct for the numbers above 6 wont be correct, but if Andy has gotten the modules reporting the info this is all good.

It is possible that balancing will not work, this has not been proven yet.

Re: [WIP] BMW Z3

From those plots it is now hitting the 100kW limit as I set in the code. Will need to look at tweaking things more once your car is more sorted.

Over 300A :) Can you get a Amp and UDC graph at some point? Things are starting to look good.

You check what speed the CAN is configured for and that you have configured it for the right bus?

Can the EVCC show you the raw CAN it recieves?

Re: Battery advice

Charge them all up, all the modules are under the "nominal voltage" so the differences will be quite large in voltage for a minimal difference in charge. Aging of the modules is why they could get like this, each has different stress. Key is that the modules are matched and do not have del...

Please just post the CAN log. No point squinting at grainy screen pictures.

Okay, but why so many pictures of the laptop screen?

Did you note down what state the BMS was in when the log was taken? I presume you have not yet connected back up any of the cells.

Re: Contactors in series....

Never mind, I have no clue what is going on. I would need to work it out for myself and no real point to that.

In the end it does not matter as you can use them how you need them to work. Just makes sure you work out their ratings and how to drive them.

I think you made a mistake identifiying the Charge Contactor connections. DCR are the DC fast charge relays, thus they connecto to the Fast Charge port, which in your drawing you labeled pos and neg. The Battery connection is actually CB and CB The diagram is very chaotic so quite stupid to follow. ...
