    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    Thanks for taking a look. Pretty much all of us coming to the conclusion that the pack needs to be repaired.

    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    I was planning on doing just that. In fact, the very day the BMS error popped up was the day I was going to go for a short road trip to burn the battery down and do a full charge supercharge. I was just taking too long by a day. Now that the error message has re-appeared I am charge locked to...

    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    Recell, You are correct. Unfortunately, the BMS u029 error has returned. I have been monitoring pack balance every day since I got the car back. I have been logging the pack balance when the battery finishes charging (98%SOC). Although the pack balance has not gotten worse, it has not gotten...

    Good news, the vibration was just a simple tire problem. Drive unit is still smooth as glass at over 200K miles.

    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    So I would like to finally post an update on my pack swap for my old 2013 MS 60. So on March 20th, I dragged my S60 with replacement battery pack out to Mr. Erickson's place in Armstrong IA. The drive was successful and managed to get both battery and car there in one go. The pack swap itself...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    Reporting suggests it was actually an Ukrainian Aeroprakt A-22LS Foxbat.

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    Sure does look an awful lot like my Cessna 152. Which is weird, as it must light up a radar scope like a Christmas tree given it's all aluminum construction. Russia's air defense must be getting really bad if they are letting these things through. That said, remind me to not go flying near the...

    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    Expect yes. The charge rate being limited by the BMS in the pack, swapping the pack from 85 to 90, the charge rate will be limited by the software in the 90 pack BMS. The 90 has better charging than the 85, therefore it will see improved charge rate at a supercharger. Charge rate on level 2...

    Thanks for heads up. I have been able to connect with Mr. Erickson and we have agreed on a plan to get my car fixed. Super happy day! I will follow up with the results when I can. Thanks for all the advice everyone.

    Thanks Kman. Yes we have met a few times at one of your EV parties at your parent's resort at Lake Delton. I appreciate all of the contributors of this thread. I am trying to reach out to some of the folks suggested. I will update the thread when I know more.

    Yes, I still have the original MCU1.

    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    That is my hope. My concern is that now that its charge limited to such a low level that the BMS will no longer be able to balance the pack. Therefore the bad cells in the pack will push the pack way out of balance. Which in turn would cause the range to rapidly diminish as the lowest cells...

    2013 MS 60 Battery Failure, have 85 pack: How to swap?

    So I have been dreading this day for a while and it has finally happened. My beloved 2013 Model S 60 is now posting the infamous BMS_029 fault. The car is about 11 years old and has 241,500miles. It has given no warning signs or any weirdness signaling impending failure. Just went to the car...

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    Looks to be legit. One of the youtubers I follow Suchomimus regularly reports on these things and does a good job of weeding out the fakes. It appears this one actually happened. Perhaps the HIMARS broke down in a bad place where it was spotted and quickly targeted by Iskander.
