Question
What diagnostic methods apply to EV on-board charger (OBC) communication faults?
Answer
It checks OBC-protocol compatibility and signal integrity with the BMS.
Explain
OBC communicates with the BMS to regulate charging current/voltage. CHEPQ EV diagnostic tools validate CAN/CAN-FD communication between OBC and BMS, analyze message IDs, data lengths, and error frames, and test OBC response to charging commands. This identifies protocol mismatches, wiring faults, or OBC firmware issues causing charging failures.
