    500e regen brake issue

    I have experienced something like this a few months ago. Fortunately, it didn't last long for me. It might not be the sensors. It could be the regen system engaging/disengaging a bit unevenly depending on speed or road conditions. Did it happen more than once?

    Any success stories with Fiat 500e OBC?

    So, I think you are on the right track with the decision to look into the onboard charger module as a potential issue. I haven't had OBC issues, but I have a friend who had similar issues. What helped him was checking the wiring and connections around the OBC. Good idea with the FLIR gun. I...

    2023 Model Slower Than 2015 SUV?

    My friend just told me an interesting one. He compared his 2015 SUV to the latest 2023 model. He felt like it was slower than his older car. He said that while 2023 might have all the fancy upgrades, it lags behind where it really matters for city driving—0-30 mph. He even timed it and...

    Fiat 500e PIM Failure?

    You are the third person I see with this problem. I don't know if there is anything to be done. Just look at this guy. He tried everything. He asked about every code error. He took his car to different dealerships in the city, and even in another state. No result. His Fiat 500e is still dead...

    Question on Using Heater in Cold Weather

    I know it takes only a few minutes to heat the car, but yes, in very cold weather it may take longer to reach the temperature you want. Yes, it affects the range... The heater can draw at least 1-1.5 kW of power. But, again, it depends on the weather. The longer you need to heat, the more energy...

    I would contact the customer support and give them the ID, VIN, and email. Until then, try restarting the car and see what happens. Also, delete the cache memory of the app and restart it, too. Let me know if it works for you.

    OBD Adapter - Leave It In or Remove?

    Ok, so you use an OBD adapter. Generally speaking, for modules that don't require the adapter, you don't need to pull it out. Before anything, check the compatibility twice, and make sure the software you use can access the module you want. But why do you want to check your car's data? What...

    Anyone know how to check AlfaOBD logs on your phone?

    Does it work? @lukepeter I would try with an OBD adapter that works with Bluetooth. I think you can read the logs on the phone using the AlphaOBD app.
