If you have an Arc fault breaker it can also be sensitive to some loads. (i suspect the GFI at this point)

Is this 2019 with original battery? Also did you do the battery software updates #1 and #2, or just the current update, #2?

I just visited the dealer. I had them check for BMS updates since my September 3rd update #2, and wanted to verify everything was ok with the battery and system and if there was something causing the unreliable range estimates and 16% loss in range. The results were as before: SOH 100%...

I agree it is deceit, only to protect the company. After 5 years of great performance and no battery issues (state of health always 100%) they removed 20% of my range with the first update. Then the second update corrected this to removing 16% from the pre software update. Now my range...

Yes it is a 2018 , original battery, dealer SOH was 100% prior to second update (September 3). The previous SOH at the dealer 2 or 3 years ago was 100%. The soul spy SOH in August was 100%. but it has not given a SOH reading from just before the 2nd update (September). It has 96,000 KM...

No, I lost between 22-13% range. Here is a better graphic: Date, Range, Voltage, Other info Before January 24 update to BMS, 240-255km ...

Just a note on KIA's manipulation of 100%: In my 2018 Soul, prior to the latest (second) update in September 2024 the battery cell voltages were 4.18 when showing 100% (This is after the first software update in Dec 2023 time frame, which limited the range to 194-200km. which was 80% in real...

A new problem occurred. Sept 3 BMS update. This week after charging and a short trip, I started up and the range went to 223, which is 20 Km more than the start up max of 210 just minutes earlier. My range max before the first BMS update was 255, averaging 242 in summer/fall conditions...

My first battery was drained by having the keys near our driveway (in the house) and the mirror were randomly sensing the keys and moving. Now we keep the keys away from the driveway.

Battery update (august 2024 version) removes range in 2018 Soul EV. After the first Battery software update in February removed 20% of my range an new update was given by KIA as a "Voluntary recall" dated August 2024. Now it has been 17 days and here is the fact for my car: The new update...
