    Well the news are that almost 24 hours parked and the traction battery mantained the charge. But today went to work and leave the battery almost full and leave it for 4 hours and went I came back it was only two bars remaining. Car started well and charge the battery driving as normal. Something is intermitent working.

    Just looking at the bars on the screen may be misleading.

    You need real data with specific numbers.

    Using torque app..

    1) What is the value of the state of charge just before you shut down the car (HV SOC%)?
    Write your answer here

    2) What is the value of the state of when you start back up the car after it has been sitting?
    Write your answer here.

    3) How long was the car sitting between 1 and 2?
    Write your answer here.

    Ok. Im gonna try. But remember this is something intermittent so I have to wait till hapoens again. Anyway going to almost full to 1 bar and triggering Hybrid system fault is not about precission

    and unusual too. i suspect something is wrong, likely the replacement battery, but hopefully the meter or related ecu.

    good luck, I wish you the best. I was lucky and "only" had 23 inches of rain from hurricane Harvey.

    what is torque app?
