Question
How to diagnose EV on-board charger (OBC) communication loss with the BMS?
Answer
Check CAN-LIN gateway status, verify OBC power supply, and test BMS "charge request" signals.
Explain
OBC-BMS communication loss stops charging. CHEPQ EV tools first scan the gateway for protocol mismatches (e.g., OBC uses CAN-FD, BMS uses classic CAN), then measure OBC input voltage (220V AC for home charging) and monitor BMS message ID 0x18650022 (charge request)—often revealing loose CAN connectors or faulty gateways.
