    MG ZS EV bluetooth connection

    Thank you, gentlemen. In a device like Bose BT speaker, it will connect to several audio devices at the same time. The last device sending the audio stream is the one that plays. This makes for a very convenient connection. As the MG costs an infinite amount more than a Bose BT speaker, this...

    MG ZS EV bluetooth connection

    Most of my audio devices and other cars will connect to my iPhone automatically when in range. The MG ZS EV does not do this. It always requires a manual connection. At the end of the drive, the Bluetooth goes to sleep and starts in the default radio mode. The problem is that the audio...

    Replacing MG ZS EV 12v lead acid with Lithium Phosphate battery (LiFePo4)

    Here, a reasonable 12v lead acid battery costs about 100 USD. Some brands may charge as much as 200 USD. This price usually includes a home replacement service performed by one of the battery shop's motorcycle mechanics for obvious reasons. The Lithium Phosphate battery I bought cost 150 USD.

    Replacing MG ZS EV 12v lead acid with Lithium Phosphate battery (LiFePo4)

    After 2+ years, my MG ZS EV 12v battery died. Rather than replacing it with a lead acid battery, I decided to go for a LiFePo4 or Lithium Phosphate battery. After the battery died, I jumped with a smaller LiFePo4 battery and it came back to life. So I was pretty sure that it would work. Plus I...

    Wall charger removal

    Thank you gentlemen for answering my distress call. I've figured it out and have attached a self-explanatory set of pictures here for future reference. The trick is to be able to insert an 8mm wrench in the back of the case and loosen the screws gripping the hanging plate enough so that the...

    Wall charger removal

    While the car itself can be charged with a portable charger, the wall charger will not and displays "connected but not charging" on the car dash display.

    Wall charger removal

    It's a type 2 charger and looks like this. Please see the attached picture. I can't see a way to open the case to get to the inside to take it down from the wall and take it in to repair. Thanks

    Wall charger removal

    I need to remove my ZS EV charger from the wall to get it repaired. I can't see any obvious lock to open the case itself to get to the interior. Can someone help me with instructions on how to open up the case?

    RF Card Type

    I am trying to find a blank RF card that I can use to duplicate the cards from the charger mfg. This is the card used to activate the home charger. Can someone tell me what type of RF card this is? What Frequency?

    Driving off without the key!

    We took over an MG ZS EV driven to us by another person and then drove off without realizing that he still had the key! The car was not turned off at the hand over and was in ready-to-drive mode. There was no alarms or other warnings that we could notice as we started driving. Only after...

    MG Charger does not indicate error with non-matching card

    Normally when the RFID card is read by the MG brand charger it will respond with a voice answer of "authorized" and "charging". I had a non-matching card left with with me from the installer who replaced a non-working home unit. I left the card in the car. When I started to charging process the...
