Those are not Mini VCI. they are VxDiag. Yes it is more modern, but also more expensive–not prohibitively though and worth the extra IMO. VxDiag...
I'll second that and add that a immediate charge after a significant discharge event will greatly add to the life of the battery.
The battery is composed of 28 modules that contain 6 cells wired in series to give a total of 168 cells at a nominal voltage of 1.2 V per cell....
Just that, all I can say is it looks like they were conducting a discharge test. Without being able to look at the data live, it is hard to tell,...
It is not a bug, it is by design. If you wait a bit longer (with the HVAC off) for the ICE to stop (should take 55 sec with the battery on 6...
Without knowing the test scenario, there's not a lot I could say with certainty.
Here's the video: HV Battery Installation hope this helps
You claim to be a diesel mechanic, but you don't seem to be able to follow the logic of what has been suggested to you. That would be correct,...
Hey Ed, you realise that English is the OP's second language, eh? You could cut him some slack–probably meant anti-mould mousse spray. Easy...
No, there is only one 12 V battery. These are just two measure points that should be in the same ball park (which these are), if all is well.
It is funny, but my experience, second opinion mechanics always seem to say this, friend or otherwise. I don't know why this is. From your...
Did you charge the 12 V battery up after this discharge event? What is the state of its health now? Charge the 12 V battery up to full and then...
That is the FFD (freeze frame data) for a C1241. This DTC's fortune cookie one liner is "Low Battery Positive Voltage". You will see that the...
When mine is warmed up, I could do that if I wanted to, but choose not to as I don't want to put that stress from cycling on the battery. Maybe...
He didn't say he could not drive at high speed, he said that the ICE cuts in at 18 mph, which means that he is in EV until then. If the battery...
Correct, the starting voltage would have to be the same. Your original way works too, and is probably more accurate. Note the original voltage...
You need to use a stop-watch to record the time it takes each module to reach your selected voltage (6.5 V?). The failed modules become apparent...
It is well known that the fuel economy reduces exponentially as you increase speed. You will not get anywhere close to 50 mpg - 60 mpg going 80...
The only thing that sounds weird is the fact the battery only shows 1 (purple?) bar always. Yes it is possible that the meter is broken, because...
It is usually only available on higher trim levels too, and from what I have seen, only on the version that is called the "type 2" in my manual....
