Another point to remember is that, unlike factory installed unit that have tight integration with their cars, OVMS on an imbed cannot control the car were it hacked. Cannot be unlocked, started, stopped or have it's internals mucked with. I don't care if someone knows the car's location or...

@acensor, Funny thing. We bought our iMiev in June this year. My local dealer in Fort Collins Colorado found a dealer in Oregon that wanted to offload their in-stock iMiev. My dealer traded for it and had it shipped here. I wonder if this was the same dealer you were working with?...

im going to remember that one. Thanks.

Finished the install today... Permanently labled both antenna cables at the connecter ends. Removed the glove box. Placed both antennas on the dash as far forward as possible. This puts them as far away from metal signal interferance as possable. Tucked the wires under the forwad edge of the...

:D :P 8-) Woohoo!! Mitsi is up and online! The last fix was the experimental hex file. Even the GPS started working.(?) Now i want to see if she will page me when she's done charging. The iPhone app tells me the charge rate, range numbers and temperatures of things. What other cool...

should have plenty of signal. I'll test the antenna on a GPS at home. I do have a PTel SIM. I will verify with them that the pay as you go plan has data. Thanks for that. I left my PICkit at home so I'll see if I can bring a windows VM home to run on my Mac then see if I can get the Pickit SW...

GPRS? GPRS: APN:wholesale User: Password: GSM:T-Mobile GPRS: OK Server: Connected OK is set to MI Experimental hex file? .... OOPS.... Going back in the thread to look for it... :oops: Would having the standard version 2 hex loaded cause the GPS command to return the wrong location?

Progress and new problems. Got it connected to the car in an exposed lot with wide open sky. It responds to SMS commands perfectly. Registered main phone, changed module password, configured server and its password, set it for miles and non paranoid mode. Stat? returns Not charging and 0% SOC...

The disk I got with the h/w was all in Chinese and the only executables are for Windows OS. We only have Macs. Is there a Mac application that I can use to update the firmware? I looked on the PIC Kit2 site and there is nothing there. [edit] Google is my friend. Found this and am trying...

While I wait for the PTel systems to come back online so they can activate my Sim, i started planning the install and reading the posts of those who have gone before me. first (of many, I'msure) question: I am sure I missed it but... where is the diagnostic connector and how do I get to it :?:

In the middle of the rear seat, there is a thick plastic cover. Looking at the under side of the seat, it seems that its function is to cover 5 holes. :?: Does anyone know what the holes are for? :?:

just saw one at the Alfalfa's Market in Boulder. Alfalfas has two charging stations but we all share one station because the other one has issues. I was just walking up to unplug Mitsi when I noticed a purple (cranberry?) iMeiv just about to pull out from the broken station. The driver was...

Good deal on the car! Now, subtract the gas that will not be purchased in the comming five years of projected use. You may like the number. :mrgreen: Unfortunately, no. The stearing wheel is not adjustable.

Just ordered all the parts and the SIM. :mrgreen: :geek: I will soon be performing surgery on our dear Mitsi. :geek: Thanks all.

Hi Folks, i am considering this mod. My first question is: :?: Does anyone have a approximate complete cost? :?:

Yes

I wonder what the Mitsu numbers would be if they Advertised the product, trained dealers before release and assured a healthy supply chain? :twisted:

I was in the middle of responding to the contrary when I decided to research what I thought I knew... Found this: http://www.marketplace.org/topics/your-money/getting-personal/tax-credit-and-tax-rebate So, If someone's income tax due to the fed is less than $7500 they will not get the full...

Agreed. Just to be clear for those new to the site and the car: A new iMiev costs $12,180*. * This was computed assuming: Starting cost of $22000 Less Fed rebate of $7500 Less Colorado State credit of $2320 If you buy a used iMiev, you do not get the Fed or State tax incentives or the new...

Vike, I have the seat as high as it will go. It helps but need a little more. PV1, Read that earlier. Removing the dead pedal would help the laft leg but not the right. Eco mode looks like it may help but drivability suffers. Maybe I can use the existing mount points on the floor and mod the...
