This may not be possible and I may be crazy, but has anyone checked on the specs for the APCM for the Chevy Volt to see if it is compatible in power output and capabilities as the EV1/S10-EV APCM? I am not suggesting that it will plug right it and work, but maybe we can develo...

John-- Your codes are consistent with the malfunction of your Auxilliary Power Control Module. Two of its functions are to supply variable-frequency 110V AC to your compressor and to charge the 12V Auxilliary battery. --Gil On May 4, 2011, at 9:10 PM, [email removed] wrote: >...

Yes they can be left on the charger. A lead truck would be fine but not a good idea with a NiMH truck. For the NiMH most of us feel with good reason it is a risk to let the truck go into the one hour 5 amp maintenance charge. The other issue with the NiMH if your heat pump sto...
