    HV battery inlet temperature sesor

    Hi Spirit. I believe there only one air temperature sensor and it is located inside battery enclosure. As you describe battery temperature is almost identical to cell temperatures on most situations. Some personal observations in past years: -Battery temperature sensor is located inside...

    Analysis of a replacement battery.

    Following BMS undate on my 2016, (before battery replacement) few charging cycles were required for GOM to show real life. Do you see increase in range? (driven not on GOM) with new BMS. I noticed slower charging current on level 2 (over 90%). That was preventing overvoltage condition on...

    Analysis of a replacement battery.

    Do you know if they put the new cells into your original case. You can see the sticker by looking under the back of the car. Sticker on my pack indicate P/N 37501-4050. With dirt on it, it was original one (from 2016). Actually in Canada/Quebec, they reuse case and exchange 8 battery blocks...

    Analysis of a replacement battery.

    From reading with Torque and Soul EV Spy, it shows 96*2 cells managed by BMS. Total voltage also indicate total of 96 groupss. My guess is my car will only use 96 out of available 100, with likely intermediate pack connection (4 not used at all). It would do the math since dealer service...

    Analysis of a replacement battery.

    Got new battery this week (37510-E4250R) on my 2016. So far all is perfectly fine and it seems to show larger autonomy than original 27kWh. After "Googling" part number, i noticed remanufacture battery packs are now offered from KIA at $1600 usd...

    Resolved: Heat pump stopped working after climate software update SA427, fixed via Kia Service Action 210031

    Good news from Canadian front. Went to dealer Today for main battery check. They told me new BMS/FACT was required on my car. Guess it is new one since it was first time technical advisor saw that particular one. Leaving dealer at 10 deC, heatpump was roaring again. :) I will try to share...

    Resolved: Heat pump stopped working after climate software update SA427, fixed via Kia Service Action 210031

    Hi notfred, My dealer (Mega Kia, Brossard, Quebec) are now aware of our problem. They had my car for evaluation and confirmed problem with heatpump. They asked Kia Canada for having issue resolved, but they answerd back there is no problem (!!!!). Looks like they want to avoid extra efforts in...

    I only get 50 km, 2015 Soul estimates 130.

    Same here, got BMS update last december and since then battery, condition is not evaluated. So at -15C, battery full, GOM estimation is 118km. , and real autonomy is 70 km. I had SOH at 70% last december. Hopefully better estimattion will come with warmer weather.

    Climate control bug? Vent mode keeps reverting to auto

    Strange that you cannot disable AUTO mode. I am no fan of that mode.I did procedure few times without problem on my 2016. -Press FRONTdefrost button for 3 seconds (Button led will blink 3 times and auto mode is disable) -Do again to reactivate. Maybe procedure is deferent for different year of...

    Resolved: Heat pump stopped working after climate software update SA427, fixed via Kia Service Action 210031

    My dealer did some test on my car Today and confirm heatpump does work but only over 15 degC. No big surprise since I did the same in my garage few weeks ago, after reading this thread. They have collected data for further analysis by KIa . Fairly big dealer near Montreal, but first time that...
