Nowadays there's 4 piston hydraulic brakes with the Bafang 3 pin wires built in. A set from China is about £65 but, they only have Left/Front and Right/Rear in those 4 piston ones, bummer! I might get some and just swap the hoses around.

I'm wondering about the two conventional fuses that shunt the pyro fuse. (You removed them, and they're sitting in your round red tray of parts on the right.) My guess is that when the pyro fuse opens, the current is redirected to these two smaller fuses, which immediately blow and quench the arc. This is probably cheaper and easier than trying to quench the arc from the pyrofuse's own conductor. In mine they were each rated to break 100 kA. Fuses of this type are usually filled with a sand, probably silica (silicon dioxide) or magnesium oxide, to promote arc cooling and quenching.

Will it work without connecting the control leads? I mean if only the HV is connected to the battery, will it charge/discharge as a power storage? (In case the inverter is not compatible)

Can I make my ct200 awd?

It’s the fifth wire down not the fourth. Works a treat though, thanks!

Very cool. Is this running the stock control board in the Prius inverter with the lexus transmission?

Hi Are you still running the batrium. Thanks for sharing ✌🏼

Only 5 years late to the video. A little more than sniffing the CAN, you can intervening and control the battery. Nice! Take care M.

مرحبا ممكن كتلوج لتوصيل بطارية 5 كيلو نضام 48 فولت لو سمحت

would it be possible to pull out all the G2 modules, and just replace the G1 ones in the G1 pack? Seemsto me that it would mostly be a mechanical swap, with the old wiring going back exactly the same

Great to see you back thanks

I'm a Dutch guy so hopefully my English is understandable. I did this myself this week en it's very easy. Take of de bumper a little. There were the bumper meets the fender you will see the cap with 3 screws. When that's of you will see the connector. Take it off and extract the pin with a needle or a thin sharp something. Push on the blank metal in the connector and you can pull out the little pin with the wire. Tape it and re assemble everything. I took me approximately 30 min.

Love your vids REB. You're a perpetual source of joy for me.

Do you have the long video for the successful process? Kinda very interesting that you managed easily

Seems I forgot to mention what was wrong. A couple of the terminals in the connector at the start of the video were not making good contact. Perhaps someone went in with multimeter probes too aggressively trying to diagnose the OTHER problem. The other problem was poorly fitted connector in the onboard charger's HVIL circuit. It was in place but not pushed down. Probably was like that from factory-I had to break the 'warranty void' stickers to get in! Hence this car having so few kms on it, it was likely a lemon from the start. Now its not a lemon but because it was flooded it remains a lemon in the eyes of the law. Life's a funny old thing...

So, what was the fix?

If anyone has heard of a hack for the Highlander hybrid inverter, I'd love to know! I have to believe that the I/O signal names are very similar, if not the same. I've often considered turning my 2008 Highlander Limited (electric AWD) into an EV if the ICE ever gives us problems... though at 310k miles now, no smoke and burns zero oil... it might not ever die! Still though, I have a couple of the FWD Highlander inverters that I'd like to get working... I have an i3 motor sitting around, and would like to get the HiHy inverter to run it.

What many people don’t realize is for home use, LFP batteries are ideal. You can charge to 100% without increasing degradation and they provide many more cycles.

Interesting seeing what's in these. I now have 2 resu 6.5 48v plugged in to a sungrow hybrid. 7 cells is 28v so mine must be running 2 "packs" in series for 56v peak which matches the inverters readings. Both of mine are not on the recall list.

Just looking at them I bought some for a brand new Leaf zd1 can't wait to scrape it

She didn't like them so they had to go I don't like your attitude buddy why didn't you just raise them up a little bit why didn't she compromise with that I'm only joking😂

E6 is the taxi/ride share model started in 2016. It’s built for heavy usage, many with over four hundred thousand miles on original battery are on the road. Chinese taxi driver typically replaces a new car every five years and about 440k miles.

I am guessing the two large purple components are ultra-capacitors to fire the explosive charge. Extra fault protection in case the system doesn't have the current to blow the fuse.

Whta is the monitor device name that tesla used... And the name of the second ic

I want to buy one. Help me out.

You wonder how the diode traps the spikes in the wrong direction - The coil first tries to keep the current going in the direction it has built up and the voltage accross it collapses and reverses as it tries to do so, with a voltage proportional to the rate of current change. If there is no diode, this voltage charges the capacitance of the winding and any capacitance of the surrounding wires, amd as the capacitor charges to maximum, the coil current falls to zero. But then the capacitor discharges, building up current the other way in the inductor... And rather as a spring (capacitor) and a weight ( inductor), what you actually get is a 'twang' of oscillation of both positive and negative that dies away as energy slops about between poetntial energy (voltage on capacitance) and kinetic energy (current flowing in incuctance). The scope is not zoomed in enough to do it justice. But if you take all the energy out of the systemn on the first half cycle with the diode, there is no charged capacitor to drive the next reversal, so it all stops at half to 3/4 of a volt, which is the diode turn-on voltage. You also often see a series resistor and a capacitor to dampen the oscillations when you do not have a DC system and a diode would not do on AC mains.

Huh, curious. I like the carpenters approach. I'm looking at mounting with a dedicated bracket but this will be option 2. Thanks

hi do you know how can I repair a blown D15120 ic chip, I tried replace with a good one, insted repair one I bricked two LBC

where can i buy this switch?

Can I get your contact on WhatsApp for help. I unboxed my box and messed up the connections and I need your guide. Maybe a picture can do.

Did you ever build anything with the LG cells? I have 3 lg Resu10h batteries that I got my hands on for free.

74 P that means there is no individual cell monitoring, those 74cells cannot be distinguished from each other, they are basically treated as one cell, at the moment there is no way around that, no ev maker has solved that issue. 74 divide 444 cells means less than 20% of the pack is monitored in reality......interesting is it not. And yes it is a work of art.

Very useful video to follow for 3 tesla model s modules i just purchased

Great stuff… Is this using the factory Prius logic board? I’ll be curious to see what the limits of that inverter are with the bigger gearbox.

Too noisy for my taste ;)

Thank you for this video. Can you ask for for shure where this cable i located? Thank you

where are you connecting the FAULT line on the Arduino and 4.7k ohm resistor to VCC? per this diagram cdn.hackaday.io/files/10098432032832/wiring.pdf

Any update on this?

Hai Sir I have a LG Chem Resu 10H , battery is down from 2017 what should be the dc voltage over the fuses on top !

Victorian England?

I can't change the speed nor the level on the mate x 250w! Is there a solution? Thanks

Can I increase the size of 12v battery in byd e6?

hey fella do you think this can be used building frames i.e wall frames etc. or will it throw the frame out (vibration etc) What you think ? :) Most vids ive seen show it driving into a piece of wood or driving in joist hangers? not seen how it works on frames as such. thx

There is a predefined lifespan of the fuse. I guess about 8 years as all of a sudden, loads of 2016 Model S cars have got the warning on the dash to replace the fuse. It's not covered by the battery warranty apparently. Just quoted £287.28 to replace it but at least it will be replaced with the newer generation that doesn't have a battery and instead draws power from the traction battery through the fuse itself.

And Lo, my 8 year old model S has a warning on the screen that the fuse must be replaced. As the batteries go flat, the set-point reduces and it can cause a false trip. Or possibly no trip at all.

Where may I find the modified Code and more info? Thanks!

I heated with a heat gun upto about 150C then dropped into cold water. With a little tapping you can slide the magnet out.

You got more details on the additional components used with the Due and code changes needed?

Hi There, I appreciate this is a few years ago but wonder if you are able to give me any pointers with mine! I have an LDU that I am putting in a conversion project. It spun up ok out of the car on 36v but with it installed properly ad 250v to it it now gives OVERCURRENT error. I checked with a meter and have continuity from the Battery negative HV cable to one of the 3 phases. I'm not sure whether to attempt to repair? Does it seem straightforward enough to either swap a complete inverter or change 1 of the 3 phase modules? Be grateful for your thoughts as it seems you went fairly deep into it! Cheers
