    Upgrade ZS EV onboard AC to DC charger

    Some Renault Zoes in the past could charge at 43kw which is why there are some 43kw AC public chargers about.

    2000+ mile journey in ZS EV

    At the suggestion of a fellow member, I am adding here, my account of a recent long journey I undertook in a ZS which was originally posted in the MG Electric Vehicle Owners Club Facebook page earlier today. Just got back from a 2000+mile trip from Tayside to the South of England for a...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    I don't know for certain, but I believe based on experience that the server only sends instructions to the charger periodically...perhaps every 15-25 mins or so. On the other hand, if you interrogate the charger (asking it for information), the charger will provide the information...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    BP Chargemaster/Pulse timed charging seems to be working fine now, but you definitely need an updated BMS, OBC and possibly EVCC. A few configuration settings also need to be correct. Your dealer should have the info accessible on what is needed for your car, but if not, press them to contact MG...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    Great that it has worked for you. I think the BP app and chargevision website could be improved drastically, but at least its working!

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    Just to add, purchase date doesn't really help you understand what has or hasn't been done. I bought mine in September and apart from adding Comfort 2 before purchase, the car had been sitting with all other original software/firmware from date of manufacture in late 2019/early 2020 until I had...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    They need to update other ECU's. If they don't know which, they will need to contact MG for an education. I believe updating the EVCC is key to this, but there may be others.

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    Timed charging worked again last night. Having successfully time-charged two nights ago, and then manually charged via the override on the webpage yesterday, the charger automatically reverted to my timed charging schedule once it had finished the manual charge without any intervention, so last...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    I forgot to mention that I completely deleted all previous schedules before setting up the latest one to ensure there was no possibility of the charger or app being confused.

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    I had the latest (Feb 21) BMS installed in my car a few weeks ago and tried timed charging. Initially, my BP Chargemaster/Pulse unit wouldn’t charge at all after this change, not even as a dumb charger. I took it back to the dealer who then updated my ECU’s to ensure they were compatible with...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    Currently, Chargemaster doesn't seem to be working on timed charging at all. They are supposedly working on a fix. Having said that, yours sounds like it won't work on timed charging with any brand if it needs to be locked for charging to start. You will need to contact your MG Dealer for...

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    I think the problem lies mainly with the chargers, rather than the cars in general.

    BP Chargemaster - Timed Charging issues

    Hi Graham, Very pleased that your scheduling is working. I have had my ZS BMS updated to the latest one, and all of the other ECU's also updated. Cant charge using the schedule either on the phone app or through the Chargevision website, though the charger is communicating with the apps since I...
