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...

So that's it then. Anyone want to buy a dead truck whole for parts? Or buy some of the parts? The battery pack is in great condition, in balance and so on. It has been a daily driver but only in town and typically only for 5-10 miles. Very occasionally it has done 20 miles. I...

Mine has finally failed. It partially failed in September of 2009 - aux battery charging but no heating or cooling. I managed to keep the truck working as a daily driver by only charging when the battery box was in the correct temperature range. Now it has fully failed, no aux...

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: >...

This is Noah, Isaac's brother. The truck did have a different battery system - they had converted it to lithium. Had a separate Zivan charger. They were using the original BMS and tricking it into thinking each 4-pack of lithium was a 12V lead acid. They had it working, but th...

Does anyone know the part number for the BPCM from the battery box? Since I think that's one of our missing parts, I thought I'd start setting up some automated searches in case a matching part number shows up somewhere like on craigslist or ebay. Thanks, :Isaac:

Hello Niel You should not worry about some of the sensors gaining faster then the others. As soon as you turn on the key there is so much air movement it would not be long for the pack to equalize. If you turn off the key the pack fan will run for about 5 minutes. I doubt one...
