Hi All, I'm a newbie. Long time TorquePro user and added the PID per the instructions in the first page or two of this thread once I rec'd and installed the Vgate iCar Pro BT3.0. It returned a number in the 4,000's...can't recall exactly what.
Installed CarScanner free version this afternoon and fired'er up. Didn't add a PID or otherwise mess with it (although I did choose Clarity PHEV on the vehicle profile) and just hooked up to have a look. "Dashboard" opened a 17 page screen seemingly having every bit of information about the High Voltage battery one could possibly want. I took screenshots of most, can probably post them if necessary. I noted on app installation that the latest update was 4 Aug. I assumed 2022 though can't say I made specific note of it...this being August, just seemed a fair assumption. So...does this mean the extensive files
@MrFixit graciously posted in the early pages of this thread have now been incorporated by the app developer?
BTW, many thanks to
@MrFixit and
@lincomatic for their diligent work and much patience on display in this very thread. TBH, I've only read about the first 7 pages thus far, then skipped ahead to pg. 20, though I plan to work my way through the lot of it as time permits. Here are the particulars:
2019 Clarity obtained 7 July, 2022 from Carvana with 96,600-ish miles
Currently, 100,559 miles
Batt Cap = 49.9 ah
Usage history: 96.6K mi (July 7, 2022) and prior, unknown
July 8: 951 miles in 16.5 hours almost exclusively in HV with a bit of HV-Charge thrown in on each of 3 petrol top-ups. Did start the journey with a full charge.
July 9 - 12: Charged on Lvl 1 cord that came with car and made a few EV trips to town and back, no ICE operation
July 13: Launched on the return trip for another 950+ miles, another 16.5 hours/3 fuel stops with a bit of HV-charge done on each tankful.
July 13-17: Still vacationing, but around home, just a few EV trips to town and back, about 10-15 miles round trip
July 18-present: Work commute - 51 mi one-way. Switch on HV mode less than a mile after launch passing thru 50 mph on acceleration to 70 mph. Cancel HV mode when I exit the freeway with 5.1 miles left (or 10%) Normally, I'll have between 40-43 miles EV range remaining as I coast to the stoplight from the freeway exit. The 5.1 miles of city/neighborhood travel consumes about 3-4 miles of that. I burn through an additional 2-2.5 miles cooling the car down with the app between shutting down my laptop, gathering my stuff and heading out to the car park. I maintain EV mode for the first 15-17 miles of the trip home despite the latter 10 or so of that being on the freeway, it is still stop-n-go. Normally switch to HV when clear of traffic and steady state 70-75 mph can be maintained. Cancel HV mode when distance to home is about 2 miles less than remaining EV range estimate. Generally charge with a Level 2 for the next day's commute, but occasionally just use the Lvl 1 and let it go overnight.
