Hi All, I was out of town for 2 weeks and the 2106 Soul EV was in the garage, doors unlocked, windows open. Upon return the 12v was dead. Not even the interior LED lights would come on, no dash lights, no unlocking. I measured the voltage on the 12V battery and it was about 3 volts. I boosted...

Hi All, Seems in Canada they think we don't like it cold (lol). I double checked, min is 17C. I do notice in the Norway pic the auto button is a little different...it does not have the red and blue bars like mine and earlier pic from Jeju. Terry

Hi, The hot pipe burning hot, the cold pipe ambient temp is considered correct. About 15C at the vents is the best we can get. Is this correct? As far as temp differences at the 4 front vents, even though the CFM at the 4 vents is approx the same, you think there might be a stuck actuator...

Hi all, I think we're getting off track (lol). The main issue is the coldness of the AC coming out of the vents. The garage verified the pressure of the gas, the hot pipe is extremely hot, the cold pipe is pretty much room temperature. Is this normal? Best temperature reading was about 15C from...

Hi, I'm in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The temp control goes as low as 17 Celsius (not a typo). I do have a driver only button, no impact on the min setting. Just trying to decide if I should go to the dealer (very expensive) and I do not like Kia Canada corporation (last resort). Terry

Hi all, I have a 2016 Soul EV with heat pump. It's summer time now and I'm finding the cooling is weak. My garage verified the gas pressure is good. It was 25C outside with low humidity, we ran it on the highway 100Kph for 20 mins after being parked outside in the sun for a couple of hours...

Hi all, I recently noticed a rubber strap hanging from the underside of the car. Its a 2016 model. Its hanging on the passenger side in front of the rear wheel. It was not always like this. I do not know how it happened or when it happened. It hangs to about an inch from the ground. Any ideas...

Thanks for your great advice! Terry

Hi, My 2016 Soul EV has an AC issue. On Friday, it took about 30 mins, 10km until the air coming out of the vent was cold (not measured - according to the driver). On Saturday it was 35C outside and the car sat outside for many hours. The car was very hot inside. Then I used the car and...

thanks! Terry

Hi, Interesting! Note this happens when it's in intermittent mode. When in the ON position it goes back and forth correctly. Of course you want to operate the wiper, it goes from OFF to INT to ON and then from ON to INT to OFF. So when turning off (from on) you go thru INT so it's hard to get...

Hi, My rear wiper is acting funny. When I turn it on in intermittent it goes from the home position to about 135 degrees (when in the driver seat looking in the rear view mirror).. or from 3 o'clock backward to about 10 o'clock and pauses. Then it continues to 9 o'clock (the end position) and...

Hi, Tested the charger last night. Worked perfectly. FYI: When I called Bosch Canada for a repair of the external charger, they said to dispose of it and get a new one. I then opened the charger and found the 2 x LET50 fuses were blown. New ones are about $100 each, I found used ones for $18...

Hi, Finally got my Soul EV back! Yay! Have not tried to charge it yet....to be continued... Regards, Terry

Hi, I received the fuses yesterday and installed them,. The Bosch appears to work perfectly. However, I still have no car to plug in to see if it really works! cheers! Terry

thanks notfred! terry

Hi, I ordered 2 LET50 fuses (because mine were both blown) ... they're very expensive for a fuse...lol. But I found some used on ebay. $17USD for a pair, plus $19 for shipping... lol... shipping cost more than the product.... I should receive them early next week. I can easily install them...2...

Hi y'all, so I opened up the Bosch and there are 2 fuses in the upper left hand corner seimens 240v 50a. both are blown. I will take a gamble and buy some. 2 x Bussmann 50LET 240 volts 50 amp cheapest i found is at witonics... $17 USD each... need 2 and the shipping is $39 to Canada via...

Hi My Bosch EV200 got fried when my OBC failed. Neither Bosch nor Kia will assist with repair/replacement of the Bosch. Any thoughts on that. Any feedback on this charger (Clippercreek AmazingE FAST Level 2, 32 Amp EV Charging station) ? Regards and thanks Terry

Hi, Thanks notfred! I did ask the service rep who is replacing the manager during his absence. He told me no one, and we have to wait until Monday (next) when he returns. LOL...my wife who speaks much better French than I will call tomorrow, the rep is French and his English is very difficult...
