    Soul Spy?

    Tomorrow I'll be at the dealer so they can take a look. Right, resetting helped. Wierd, I thought the GPS rollover already happened last April. Strange this happens a few months later for Kia :lol:

    Soul Spy?

    Yesterday I drove some extra km to get the car at 17%. Unfortunately after a night of charging the car still thinks it can only drive 70 km, even though I drove 142 km the day before. I would understand (a bit) if the range would only go up slowly, just like it does in spring. But the car seems...

    Soul Spy?

    52.1 in cell 83 is the max deterioration. It was a month apart. I can't tell you the exact kilometres , but there would be a difference of between 2000 and 2500 km. The reading mentioned above was made at 154444 km and the SOH reading of the dealer was somewhere when the ODO was in the low...

    Soul Spy?

    The reading I have recorded which is closest to the time the battery SOH was determined by the dealer is 52.1 (also at cell 83). This was done in Torque though, not Soul Spy. That was a month after the battery reading was taken at the dealer. I don't have recorded all the times the SOC went...

    Soul Spy?

    The max deterioration was 59.2 in cell 83. Soul Spy said SOH was 46.1. According to the dealer I got a new battery so the new SOH should be 110%, I guess. I don't know how I can tell the difference. They said I got a completely new battery. They've reset the BMS once before (they put in new...

    Soul Spy?

    Thanks, I did not think of looking at the .de site :oops: I had already ordered one in China. I will see of that one works better and if not I can always buy the one you found. I now have a new battery in my car. They did not reset the BMS, so it still shows the old values, even for the min...

    Soul Spy?

    Unfortunately shops on Amazon mostly don't ship to Europe. Or at least not The Netherlands. I ordered another in China, perhaps this one works better.

    Soul Spy?

    I have a bad dongle that does the same and gives the same error in Soul Spy. It's a small blue translucent dongle, and on the forum you can find other people where it doesn't work. I think you probably need another one. Can you try the ELM327 identifier app? The one I have doesn't even have all...

    Soul Spy?

    On my commute home the app didn't freeze nor crash. It got disconnected quite some times though. It looks like a good solution so far. I did notice not all the fields were updated all the time. Particularly the remaining range field. It was stuck on 69 km for quite some time, when the car...

    Soul Spy?

    Thanks, I'll try this afternoon and let you know.

    Soul Spy?

    I can only tell you my car had a firmware upgrade last May. I don't know exactly what was updated, as far as I know this is the first update that the car got. I guess the max deterioration of your bad cell(s) has improved a bit. It is quite common for these values to fluctuate, as the BMS...

    Battery Ageing Model

    I used the same type of charger but from Mitsubishi. In the manual it says only Kia certified portable chargers should be used. In the Dutch version it says so on page 43 of the special green part where all the procedures of the EV are explained. This of course is not true, you can use any. The...

    Soul Spy?

    Sorry if I was unclear. The app stops doing anything and I have to force quit in Android and restart. Just now, on the way back this happened quite a few times. Just for reference, what do you mean with a crash? Does the app completely disappear in that case? Or do I get some kind of "oops, I...

    Soul Spy?

    Sure, I love living on the edge ;) I do get your point, but my point is that I don't like to share some private information willingly. I know there are apps that will steal them (I don't think you do) but that is different than handing it over without questions. I know, but my address is also...

    Setting up Torque to show BMS data

    On this site: https://github.com/JejuSoul/OBD-PIDs-for-HKMC-EVs the plugin HKMC-EV-Torque-Plugin is mentioned. My google-fu fails me and I can't find this at all. What am I missing?

    Battery Ageing Model

    In The Netherlands the warranty is 7 years or 150k km. There is no replacement battery in The Netherlands so it has to come from Kia in Korea. It takes several weeks for an order to arrive (just like my replacement engines). In the mean time I'm still driving the car so my mileage is now higher...

    Soul Spy?

    That does not make you less a stranger :roll: Perhaps some setting to skip the GPS location and vinnumber and stuff like that? Of course I can edit the files, I will do that before I'll send them to you next week. I don't have a logfile of Soul Spy right now, but I have a logfile of the...

    Battery Ageing Model

    I recall our number plates don't differ much. Our vinnumbers are also near each other. I'm currently at 155k km, I drive the car currently as little as possible because of the range issues while it used to be our main car.

    Battery Ageing Model

    Yes, that's the Soul I drive since September 2015 (the car is from August 2014). Like I mentioned before I always found the range less than on the car I had driven for testing. My onboard charger failed in September 2016. I had swapped the granny charger with a coworker who had a Mitsubishi...

    Soul Spy?

    I haven't been keeping track of the min and max deterioration. Actually I haven't been keeping track at all :oops: Once in a while I used torque to get the SOH value or take a look at the tire pressures. Last May my car got a firmware upgrade (as far as I know the first one). I guess it...
