This .bin file is a blank file. I recall Damien giving me the link for it.
If you flash this file then power down and repower the Zombieverter then use the latest recommended .bin file on the github page it might cure your problem. I have tried thid method myself and it has worked for me.

Can anyone confirm if the instructions for installing the software at https://openinverter.org/wiki/Olimex_MOD-WIFI-ESP8266 work for the Wemos module and the Zombieverter? Also should we be using Johannes web interface code https://github.com/jsphuebner/esp8266-web-interface or the GS450H VCU code https://github.com/damienmaguire/Lexus- ... aster/WiFi ? I can’t see any code specifically for the Zombieverter VCU.

I want to keep my original accelerator pedal so I’m using the car’s throttle position sensor (TPS) to provide a single channel throttle signal for the Zombieverter. Calibration went fine, except for the usual Olimex WiFi problems, but the motor doesn’t start spinning until the throttle is about 30% open. Any suggestions about how I troubleshoot this?

AdrianB wrote: ↑Wed Nov 02, 2022 8:54 am I don’t think your .bin file has uploaded. When I upload it I also see the “upload successful” message instantly, then after a few seconds the progress bar appears and progresses very slowly. Often it freezes before it gets to 100%. I have to repeat the process several times before it it gets to 100%.

My question is in relation to regen not working and jerkiness in throttle operation. I ask this as I have these two issues and I don't want to waste time trying to diagnose the issues if they are software related.

All the symptoms seem to point to this direction.

Here is what I get with "http://192.168.1.26/list":

Code: Select all

Can somebody check the list above and tell me which ones I can toss.

Would really appreciate if someone can check the file list above and tell me what can be removed from the wifi module flash.
I can manage with the ST-Link, but it is somewhat of a pain.
