    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    I finally did the tony test. Extended charge 144/146 = 98.6% Regular charge 125/146 =85.6% Glad that extended charge seems to be working. Is the regular charge suppose to around 85%? Is it possible that the extended charge time shortened because the regular charge percentage is higher? Thanks.

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    Perfect. Thanks for the conversion. So assuming that before the software update, the extended charge time was between 60-80 minutes, and now it's 40 minutes. I am wondering what could have caused the change in charging time.

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    I have an EVLink Charger 30 amps (I think 7.2kW charge rate). Is that around 80 minutes of charging for a new battery? I had a Ford Focus EV prior to the Rav4, so it's an older charger. Thanks.

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    Thank you. Those posts are very informative. I think the EV tech was not suggesting that that new software changed the battery but that it does not allow the extended charge to go from 80% to 100% as before; it is now limiting the extended charge to go from 80% to something like 85%. It is...

    Thank you for the advice. I will keep that in mind. Unfortunately I do not have a JdeMO.

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    Thanks Tony. I will try the battery test soon, probably this weekend. I've had my Rav4 for about a year, around 15k miles. It is just strange that the extended charge function works fine before the software update and changed right after the update. Can battery degrade that fast in a couple of...

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    Thank you. I will try that. Although I feel that this is probably not an issue with battery degradation, since the change happened right after the software update (unless they somehow damaged part of the battery during the process).

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    same ambient temperatures ? same amount of amps ? How many miles on your rav ? Have you done the "tony test" to see how much your battery has lost compared to new ? Afaik the tesla charger will not charge it to eg 80% of what ever capacity is left of the battery but gradually fills it further...

    Extended Charge function decrease after recall software

    Hello, Has anyone experienced a decrease in the their extended charge function after the recall software update? When the battery is full, I can now only charge for an additional 40 minutes when I use the extended charge function. In the past, it was more like an additional two hours. Thanks.
