    Various issues with ZSEV Trophy LR - advice needed

    4. "Front camera is blocked" warning message This is very likely to be related to your windows misting up, The front camera is behind the rear view mirror (the box in the grill, is the front radar) If the screen is misted, then the camera will be blocked and due to the "great" design, the...

    MG ZS EV battery Balancing - battery knackered?

    To me, that is the best evidence that you have to demonstrate that their is an issue with the battery What sort of miles/kWh do you get on average? The dealerships must get quite a few complaints about not achieving the advertised range, but this isn't the same, if you could document... Charged...

    MG ZS EV battery Balancing - battery knackered?

    That does sound odd How is your range? does it tie in with 32kWh or 44kWh? If you reset the trip meter, from a full charge, what range do you achieve on a long run and what was the Miles/kWh for the same journey?

    Mk2 brake lights flashing every few seconds

    On the ZS MK2 you're foot most definitely does not have to been all the way off the accelerator pedal for the brake light to come on I've had quite a play with it, it comes on when a certain percentage regen is reached, from memory it's when the gauge is showing -7% (though my memory has been...

    Info screen too bright at night!

    I live in a very unlit area in the countryside. I found the screen to bright on its lowest setting But I noticed, when I set it to minimum, it was ok, but next time I used it, it was brighter, even though the setting was still at its lowest I then set it a fraction higher, that seemed to help!

    This should get interesting fast

    I consider myself pretty adventurous, I've got to say though, I'm in awe of your journey 👍

    Overtaking lights not extinguishing

    I'm not sure, I think that the front radar does also use a combination windscreen camera in some circumstances. Certainly some of the error messages are when the windscreen camera is fogged or iced up

    Overtaking lights not extinguishing

    The sensors for the blind spot detection are radar (or similar) not cameras. There are 2 at the rear hidden behind the bumper, roughly below the lights

    13 miles driven and I’m wondering how I’m going to love it….

    I think dead reckoning, is where the sat nav (is meant to) keep moving, even when satellite signal is lost, based on the speed of the car e.g. when driving through a tunnel. There's a problem with it on the MG, that's why we turn it off, we shouldn't have to, but it's no loss

    V2L Earthing - how?

    Simply answer is that I'd be guessing, I don't understand how there could be a RCD without test and reset buttons As we've discussed, the risk is relatively low, you'd have to be touching 2 conductors, rather than 1 and standing on earth Even if the body of the car was earthed, there's not many...

    V2L Earthing - how?

    Sorry, typo now corrected, I meant to say "wouldn't be an imbalance" I have a nasty habit of missing off the "n't" which totally changes the meaning :)

    V2L Earthing - how?

    I totally agree with you, RCD's in a home rely on detecting an imbalance between L & N, that imbalance occurs when there is a current flow to earth, for example the circuit becomes.... L > Fault point > Earth On a V2L the ground that we stand on is not earthed to the car If you touched the L...

    Using cigarette lighter to run 12V devices whilst camping

    Which version of car do you have MK1 (with a grill) or MK2 (no front grill)? I thought that the 2022 model in AUS was the MK1, 2022 in the UK is MK2 MK1 does not support V2L

    HV battery shutoff when initiating rapid charge. Vehicle control system fault.

    I agree, I think that mine was on the slow boat when the fix was brought out. They'll be quite a few people in the same boat (sorry...dad humour!)

    HV battery shutoff when initiating rapid charge. Vehicle control system fault.

    It might've even been later than that, I got my LR mid May, I'm sure the dealer had to do the update as part of the PDI
