The charger seems too help, but at the same time doesn't. This weekend I hope to go through the process of doing a discharge using the light bulb method.
I have a question for someone more knowledgeable than myself. Back in May when I was driving through the mountains, I was driving on a highway that had a 4% grade for a hill. This was going down hill. I let the car slow itself down by keeping the car in gear. The charge bars were fully lit. Then while still going down the hill, the IMA light came on, the car jerked and was picking up speed, like there was no more resistance of a charge happening.
I haven't felt the car try to charge since. So I ask, how does the car charge? I understand its the electric motor turning into a generator when not in use. But what tells the battery to charge? The BCM? Is there a fuse or relay that could have blown while I was driving through the mountains?
Thanks
