Feature request : Add support for Volkswagen MEB BMS

Open nkrepo opened this issue 10 months ago • 5 comments

Hi all, First to say that is a great project and congrats to all of you! I would like to ask if there are plans to support Volkswagen MEB BMS ? I know probably is hard to get hold of a complete VW MEB battery and they are way more expensive than alternatives, but I assume in the feature they will be more readily available.

I noticed that there is work from @Tom-evnut implementing the decoding of the BMS from CAN VW BMS. Is there any way to integrate it to Battery-Emulator ?

This is the internal CAN bus of the battery not the external one you would need.

Oh that's unfortunate, lets hope in the feature there will be documentation how to access the main BMS controller for the MEB batteries. Thank you for the quick reply !

One question , related with the possibility of getting support for MEB platform BMS. The main BMS controller for MEB platform is on the battery pack or it is integrated with the rest of the car electronics ?
