My brake light recently came on while driving so I decided to call my local dealer. I hadn't gotten a recall notice yet in Canada either. It seems the part is on recall and they don't even know when the part will be available! So the car is just sitting in the garage as it's too dangerous to...

Hi JoeS, Here's data from my OVMS module the last time it happened in December: Columns are SoC, charge voltage, charge current and charge state. You see my plug in at the very top at 15% SoC. OVMS captured moments later when the charge speed was still ramping up at 222V/2A. It then...

I used Hobdrive to reset the DTC and everything is fine. Had no idea it can do that! Noticed my BMU thinks I have 45Ah capacity so I will have to drive around until the capacity corrects itself. Battery was disconnected for so long it reset.

I've had the entire battery disconnected for way more than an hour and it's still on. At this point I am worried there's something else going on. I might have to get the diagnostic code from the car. And yes that positive clamp is bad. It wasn't corroded very much at all but the connection...

Hello everyone, I've got an odd problem with my 2012 i-MIEV. Not too long ago I had intermittent trouble starting my car. Since it has a new 12V battery so I didn't think it was that and after troubleshooting it turns out the positive battery terminal was somewhat corroded and wasn't making...

These are the shared power stations correct? There's stations that will share 6.6kW of power between 2 cars and ones that will provide 6.6kW max to 2 cars plugged in. I've used both, I don't think I've had the pause happen on the shared power variant now that I think about it.

I'm in Canada but my 2012 i-MIEV doesn't have this problem and I have tried many chargepoint units around the city. Is there a specific ChargePoint model# this happens at? But my car has done the timeout many times at a ChargePoint station, it usually happens If I arrive with 20% or less, it...

I'm on a bit of a trip so I am charging at a Chargepoint EVSE I've never used before. Both of these charges after a 30 minute highway drive so I arrived at 15%-20% SoC. The car seems to pause the charge at 20%. The first time it was at 19% percent so it charged for a bit and shut down...

My mistake that's not actually a ChargePoint charger, it's a company that has a partnership with them and you can use your Chargepoint card to start a session. I only see such spikes with their chargers. Here's an actual Chargepoint charge session from a dual head charger.

I shared this earlier. This pause?

It must be only certain ChargePoint units as I've never experienced anything like this and I frequently use their chargers.

I suppose OVMS could theoretically send the signal on the CAN bus if someone figures it out. People are using it on cars like the Leaf.

Do you get the errors without the OBDLink device plugged in? I have an LX as well but I've plugged other sorts of devices and an OBD cable odd Amazon and it made the control panel go berserk. I've also gotten errors with the LX and using the official app as it used some strange protocol...

Which Chargepoint units are these? Is it the older ones or newer dual head ones? I never see tapering except around 95% which I'd expect. My car times out for 20 minutes if I start at low SOC% otherwise I see 208V/14A every time. Always get around 2.8-2.9kW or 18km/hour per the app.

V3.2 is out and it has the new iMIEV code. It seems to work well. I have more problems with non iMIEV specific stuff like wifi disconnect and some crashes. It seems to support everything that's ever been discovered on the CANbus for the car from what I can tell. I don't know if the car sends...
