Here is a possible circuit. I put several Ds diodes in parallel as they are only rated 3 Amps.

Schocttky are 3.0 Amp each Not 0.3 Amps as i Indicated in previous communication JP

I used 4 10a10 Silicon Rectifiers Rectifier Diode (Spec 10a 1000v R-6 10.0 Amp Silicon Rectifiers) I bought the 10A10 online from Newegg.CA and I also used 3 schottky diodes rated 0.3A, connected in parallel. Bought those from a local shop. Don t have the PN. Bye

Once the diode dropper circuit is installed and all switches are short circuiting the diodes so that the car sees the normal 12 V from the AUX battery, then you must turn on the car without pressing the brake pedal. Make sure that you do not have any accessories on (Fan, Heater, AC, Seat or...

This would a best practice worth spreading around for pedestrian sake, Thks JP

So do you hear your AVAS? Is it faint? Mine is barely noticeable. JP

Thanks for spotting this. I did not read the entire the manual and AVAS does not appear in the index. I will point this out to my dealer. Also, I was walking next to my vehicle in a parking lot as my spouse was moving the vehicle and I noticed a smal Humm that would be the AVAS. It is barely...

I presume you have a North American car. If so your battery should be a 38 Ah. Are you sure your are checking SOH (State of Health) and not SOC (State of Charge). SOC of 34.7 Ah could be right if charging did not fully charge de battery, SOC is almost lower than SOH at least in my case.

34.7 Ah is very low for 5000 km. Mine was at 35 after 10 months with 11000 km. You lost 8.7 % of capacity. This is huge. Is your vehicle a 2018? When did you get it? Did you get is new or used? Even then at 5000 km the battery SOH should never be that low. I would bet it was already...

Here is the SOH chart for my battery before and after the BMU Reset in Mid October. Before BMU reset SOH was 35 AH After the BMU reset it was 40 AH As expected the SOH dropped regularly in the following days. I drove 3700 km in 36 days since reset. This includes a 3 day trip of approx...

Finally got a response from my Mitsubishi dealer. Apparently Canadian Phev Outlander do not have an AVAS. This is not mandatory and according to the dealer even though the AVAS was installed in EU an UK PHEV, it apparently did not reduce the number of incidents. Dealer said that MMC supposed...

I can t hear that sound. I found a Youtube video playing this sound and it seems very weak. Is there a way to Increase the sound level? JPL

In order to connect your SmartPhone with the PHEV app to your Outlander, you must first disable Data and Bluetooth on your smartphone. Other communications network disrupt the communications between the Car and the Smartphone. Once I figured that it worked ok. However the range is still very...
