Wondering if anyone knows how I can edit an XLS 2013 PX1 Ranger to adjust the state of charge it attempts to keep the battery at? Default is 80%, but I'd like to tweak this to either 85 or 90%. I've got Forscan and I've been able to turn smart charge on/off, but ideally want to leave it enabled (With it off, I lose the ability to read the OBD PIDs related to the BMS), but adjust the SOC up a bit.

Cheers,

Joseph

Unless it is listed in the 3rd post here then it cannot be changed. > viewtopic.php?t=1213 <

You could possibly unplug the BMS sensor on the negative battery terminal.
