I don’t think it imposes anymore of a risk tbh. In fact, it could be said in some ways that accessing the release button is a little better for the emergency service in the event of an accident in some respects ?. The original button is so far down the side of the seat 💺 that locating it, could...

Although the standard range and the long range share the same head unit display, the standard range with the LFP battery chemistry is better suited to charging to 100% SOC every time to conduct a charging cycle. Therefore, the charging to 80% is not available for the standard range models. LFP...

It’s a lot of “hit or miss” really @LeedsLoiner . Sometimes the radio will automatically just start playing the station you had selected from your previous trip and other times, it just sits there displaying the “pause” button on the screen and you have to hit the “play” button. We now have the...

Hi Steve - Our Gen1 ZS EV head unit would regularly return either a totally black screen / freeze or verbal guidance, but no visual display etc. The Gen2 was a bit more stable, but it to had its moments for sure. Normally, if you hold down the “home” button and keep it held down, until the head...

I put down to having a “Senior Moment” 😵‍💫🤣.

I did something similar last week, I had been cleaning the carpets with vacuum cleaner. I put the key fob in the centre console. Reached inside and placed my hand on the drivers seat 💺to reach across. Of course, this powered up the car. Then finished the car and went to grab a hot drink. A...

Better to have a fuse that is rated too low installed, rather than a fuse that is over size rated for the appliance. The fuse is correctly intended to be the weakest point in the circuit.

I always have spare 3 / 5 /13Amp fuses ready to hand. The majority of our electrical items are covered by 3 or 5 amp fuses. Only the heavier load appliances have 13 Amp fuses installed.

Nice and sunny in North Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 today, washed the car at the weekend, I really needed to spend some time tidying up our garden today. Even managed to cut the grass !. Our garden bin is full !. Forecast does not look too bad here, until just after the weekend 🤞.

The green flex makes a change from the normal black colour, that has become the norm !.

I don’t think the rear lights are fused ?. I can’t see any mention of them in the fuse box lay out in the manual. Both the front head lights have an independent fuse covering each side. On the Gen1 version, there is access to the inner tail gate clusters via a flip out panel on each side of the...

When comparing the 12 volt battery charging arrangements, between ICE and EV's, they are a little different. Although taking the EV "out for a run" will be effective, as long as the car is sitting in "Ready" mode, the 12 volt battery will still be receiving a charge at the same level. The car...

You could try removing the negative terminal on the 12 volt battery ( using a10mm spanner ). Lift the negative clamp away from the battery post. Leave the it disconnected for about 10 minutes, then reconnect and tighten the clamp back up. Now try booting up the car to see if has fixed it. Doing...

Here in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 they have switched a lot of the roads from what was 30mph down to 20mph. At a cost of millions of pounds of tax payers money. Now after a lot back lash, some of the roads have been moved back to 30mph. Again, spend more money. The car has a split personality, half of it...

How frustrating is that !. That would be the best way to go I think. This type of arrangement maybe ?.
