Re: [EVDL] Chevy Bolt Battery Recall

I have been told no over air updates for Bolts except for the entertainment center. I had to take mine in to get the 80% patch put in by a tech at the dealer until it gets a new battery. As I understand it, several of the Bolt fires were cars at a low state of charge. The problem is really an

Re: [EVDL] Chevy Bolt battery recall

There is a Bolt recall tracker at: https://bolt.areyouscared.dev/ that allows users to add their VIN and help track overall progress. Of course, VINs not entered aren't being tracked. GM is not doing the recall in any order that anyone can comprehend. Some from every year have been completed,

[EVDL] Who Still Makes Adapters For DC Conversions?

A friend of mine is bringing an older S-10 conversion back to life, and it was setup with a clutch-less motor install. He would prefer to have a clutch. Is anyone still making adapters? I have been out of the conversion discussion so long I don't know where to send him. Thanks, Mike Chancey

Re: [EVDL] Is the EVtradingpost dead?

Yes, the EV Tradin' Post is gone. I handed it off to Aaron Choate a number of years ago and he kept it going awhile, then it got buried in spammers so he retired it. It really would take a lot of new code and vigilance to survive in today's internet. Mike Chancey Webmaster EV Album

Re: [EVDL] Chevy Bolt 2020 50 mile Range Drop in One Year

I am told GM can't do over the air updates on the Bolt except to the infotainment system, and they have never bothered to do that. Have you had any of the recalls performed yet? My 2020 Bolt LT has not been made eligible for the recall battery replacement or even the interim software that limits

Re: [EVDL] Bolt in standby?

Re: [EVDL] EV album down?

I'm looking into it. It is supposed to be alive, I didn't shut it down. It is getting very long in the tooth technology wise, but I haven't given up on it yet. Thanks, Mike Chancey "webmaster" EV Album -Original Message- From: EV On Behalf Of EVDL Administrator via EV Sent: Sunday,

Re: [EVDL] Upgrading to 80 amps

You would also have to upgrade the pilot signal to send a 96% duty cycle signal so the EV would recognize 80 Amps was available. Pretty hefty wiring to power the EVSE too. Mike Chancey http://evalbum.com -Original Message- From: EV On Behalf Of Lawrence Rhodes via EV Sent: Tuesday,

Re: [EVDL] Bolt battery power?

There are a number of threads about tapping the 12 volt battery of a Chevy Bolt for power on the ChevyBolt.Org forum. One at: https://www.chevybolt.org/threads/120-volt-power-tap.34676/#post-531575 I am planning on attaching a 60 amp DC-DC charger to allow my Bolt to become a reserve power
