Tame your EV Cable mess? EV Hover Product Review
Holy Hannah is this way more complicated then it needs to be. All they need to do is add a manual activation mode. I can see why they don't, but just add a bunch of disclaimers or something. Great video though!
Thanks for the info. Do you know there's a procedure for battery preconditioning an Ioniq 6 with ABRP?
My EV6 came with this but its operation is totally random. It no longer locks in my garage but it locks itself after random time intervals out in public - but it does always lock eventually.
Do you like boys
I'm pretty sure the locking is not location based, it's time based unless the fob is inside the vehicle. It will lock 10 seconds after you shut all the doors regardless of whether you've moved away or are right next to the vehicle.
Great Video. I am actually using the instructions just to replace the original LED bulbs. I was quote €1600 for the entire assemble when just the LED strip can be bought for about €250. You video makes it clear it is possible to fix this myself. Thanks very much.
problem with this UI is I can never tell what is playing my music. is it a connected device via android auto? bluetooth device? or from radio? or maybe via usb? makes no sense and there should be a dedicated "now playing" icon to quickly jump to see what music is playing and its source. maybe an easy toggle to switch between audio sources.
Well done!
what darkness did you go with for your taillights?
I have used ABRP with online data along with Apple Maps navigation. They are not mutually exclusive. One great thing about ABRP is that it shows (in the app) the distance in feet to every eating establishment near the charger. If you plan a meal and a charge together it eliminates any “wasted” time. (Although, you may be interrupted to get up and move the car).
Kia’s updates for the EV6 are useless, absolutely laughable. All we get are more relaxing sounds. There are so many quick fixes they could implement. They don’t take existing customers seriously.
Well, you don't really buy a Kia for the software updates. The car has other charms.
@@ev_kimchi Well I guess adding 5 lines of code isn’t too much of an ask. It’s a very basic anti theft measure you’d find in cars half the price of an EV6.
I had a similar experience with ABRP's app. It was really buggy and caused us to miss our exit to the charging session. Various points of interests would blink on the map as we drove along and it was incredibly annoying so I just shut it down. ABRP does a good job of suggesting an initial itinerary but it falls apart when you hit the road.
Mach N Cheez could use those chargers across the way, no problem!
truth -- it just might not make it there!
@@ev_kimchi just needed to bring a spare HVBJB or two, nbd.
about to do this very trip next week in the same car using the same charging network so hopefully the next video comes out soon (or if you can give some pointers before it)
Key is where you are going in LA (or, if going north, how far north in the Bay Area you are going). This will determine whether and how much of a second stop you must do. I would get ABRP downloaded to your phone, set the car to your trim level of the Ioniq 5, and have it calculate what it believes are the optimum stops. I would say that the Kettleman City EA is one of the most reliable, because it has 10 350kw stalls with relatively new chargers. Worst reliability for me has been EA's Lost Hills. You generally have to do EA in Firebaugh or Bakersfield, all depending upon how much of a deep charge you need to reach your final destination. If you're going to have a reliable charger at your destination, you can obviously run your car down to little buffer.
@@ev_kimchi thanks it's our first roadtrip in our first ev, so I wanted to be a little better prepared than usual for the trip!
I would plan on stopping at Bakersfield Enos Lane, then Kettleman City, or more north at Harris Ranch or Firebaugh (all of these are EA stops on I-5) -- you'll need 2 stops, and how much charge you would need depends on where in LA and where in Bay Area you are coming / going to
@@ev_kimchi thanks I ended up having a very uneventful and fun trip. We stopped at harris ranch and in santa clarita to give us plenty of buffer and i did the same on the reverse. I'm pretty stoked that roadtripping is so easy
Are these uk legal ?? Our turn indicators are Orange
probably not
Hi there! Not sure if you'll still see comments on here, but I am looking at the exact tires you put on your car (according to the Mach E forum), Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 in 255/45/20. Did you have any issues going from the 245 width to 255 width?? Did you notice a range loss going to non-EV tires? Thank you!
Nope no issues and no discernable change in efficiency
Ah
Oh
I wish I would have watched this before I bought my Mach E. WTH!!!
never too late to sell it, I always say
Does it come standard with back seat ambient lighting
GT and GT-Line have ambient lighting in the rear. We're not talking a huge amount of it, however.
tell me to buy?
Buy
You know my mustang Mach-e has this feature standard 🙂
congratulations
It seems that the same device could be used to auto-unlock upon approach in the EV6 Wind if programmed for that also. I've seen a lot of Wind owners complain about auto unlock more than auto lock.
it probably could, but I'm not sure the gadget has this capability
Hi, I have the EV6 GT as well and if I stand next to my vehicle it unlocks and if I don't open the door and move away from the door it locks back up. So was there an over the air update or something??
yes my car has this as well -- what I have that you don't is that my doors will auto-lock after I *open* a door, and then shut it and walk away with the FOB with me. In the stock US-spec car, the doors only auto-re-lock if you unlock the car (by hitting the FOB button or approaching the car with the FOB in your pocket) and then you don't open a door
Yes, great video thank you. Here in Australia we have separate amber turn signals, Euro style. Combination brake/red signals are strictly not allowed. They’re not sequential (although those are allowed).
jealous!
Very nice review. Thanks for sharing.
Hi do you have a video on removing the side break lights? The left one in particular. Thanks
no, sorry -- although you can figure out how to get the whole lighting module out from my video. I think the brake light probably just unscrews from the same assembly once it is out of the car, but this is just a guess on my part
Nice! How do you like It? I plan on getting an ev6 gt as well my commute is similar range but I’ll be taking 680 from Napa to San Jose. With the hills did the range take a hit? but I assume you gain on regen going down hill it charges a little. And how much range have you gotten going 80mph with full charge?
I think you are pushing it with that commute a day -- that's easily 80-90 miles with terrain each way. You'll need a charger at your workplace. Why not look at a GT-Line instead? Very zippy still, and much better range that should do that hellish commute without problems
Have you noticed any change (good or bad) with respect to the wiper-less "self-cleaning" of the rear window? We have a lot of mucky salty-slush on the roads during our winter months... I understand the EV6 aerodynamics work a bit better than the IONIQ5's as far as rear window cleanliness. Has this spoiler changed the nature of the EV6's self-cleaning of rain and/or muck? Thanks!
I don't have much basis for comparison, as I don't live in a place with much yucky weather. It's exciting if it rains.
I absolutely hate that shit. It seems auto makers are getting further and further out of touch with the average consumer as each year passes.
truth
You are awesome for providing such through content. Thanks!!
Lord this is not worth the hassle. Fix your car Kia and Hyundai
they did -- the refreshed models of the Ioniq 5 and EV6, coming this fall to the US, (as well as newer models like the EV9) have a simple "precondition" button to press in the new ccNC infotainment.
@@ev_kimchi Still doesn’t fix the thousands of vehicles already on the road. Pretty lame support of the drop the older models that quickly. Tesla still has updates on older models.
This isn't a Tesla. It has other charms other than its software updates.
@@ev_kimchi I don’t think you should defend a multi million dollar company. They should support the old models for a minimum of 10 years. No excuses.
@@PhotoJohn80who cares if it’s a multimillion dollar company. There’s reasons they do and don’t do certain things.
Sorry, but don't you know the difference between mud flaps and mud guards? When you said "flaps" I thought you meant actual FLAPS, you know, the things that FLAP, not mud GUARDS. Words matter man, I personally couldn't stand you saying FLAPS over and over again while installing the regular mud GUARDS, so I had to turn it off, heh... But thanks for all your info in general, you get a pass on this one as you are definitely helping us new owners out!
I'm excited you are getting so worked up about this, you must be very bored
Just NUTS it doesn't have this feature already! My Mazda 3 that was half the price of my GT-Line, that I traded in for had this, if it can sense you walking up it absolutely can detect your waking away, no way I'm doing all this hacking in when it could already be enabled if they wanted to. We need to push Kia for an answer WHY they don't do this! This reminds me of having a car that was only offered with terrible halogen headlights in my country when other countries had nice projector options. These alternative headlights could be ordered fairly cheap but needed some wiring mods to work right. So this guy came up with a complex way to get the out of country headlights working right, huge forum post with instructions, sold the parts at cost for the benefit of the community, etc. Then a guy comes in and says "wait, why are you doing all that? All you have to do is flip these two wires in the harness connector and it does the same thing." Well, dudes elaborate post with instructions was deleted by the next day. I felt sorry for him, but a perfect example of why not to immediately dive in too quickly when a simpler solution will come around, hell, Kia could end up enabling this in an OTA update.
this functionality was left off of US-market cars. I will say that my wife does not like this function in her Ioniq 5, so I think this is a matter of personal preference
Kinchi ya no sacas videos? Era mejor el Mustang verdad?
Sorry dude, no speak espanol
As far as I’m aware the AI box module allows wireless CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. Can you run nav data on your phone via CarPlay/AA when connecting through the AI Box w/o it disconnecting factory nav or can you only use nav on the box itself?
part of the android auto and carplay spec is to detect if turn-by-turn directions are initiated on either the native or projected phone system, and to stop any already running navigation so drivers do not have two systems giving directions at once. This isn't implemented perfectly well on the Chinese AI boxes, but generally you cannot have two TBT navigations running at once -- one will stop suddenly when the car or phone realizes the other is directing you
What’s the cost and how do I purchase?
look at the video description
THANK YOU! The happy accident addtionally that happened was the display of XM/Sirius whilst navigating in Android Auto! One of my biggest pet peeves about the Kia Infotainment. Now, after following your steps to enable battery pre-conditioning, I have the split screen with XM displayed! YAY! 🙂
What is a "ICE" car?
ICE = Internal Combustion Engine, or a car that burns the juice of dead dinosaurs
@@ev_kimchi There is no dilithium crystals power plants
How or where do you see the charge rate graph? I just get a % of charge bar graph on my screen.
yes you do -- look into an OBD-II reader and an app on your phone called Car Scanner to log the data from your car like I did
Nice video. How do you get maps/navigation on the right?
Bjorn - you can enable "right side" or "left side" driving in the settings of the car.
watch my video perhaps? goes thru the steps
Great video, but it's kind of strange that this isn't just plug and play by simply replacing the sequential signals. I ws excited until I saw how much &^%$ I have to take apart.
these turn signals do not comply with US Law, so they purposely do not have this set up to be plug and play for US-spec cars
Does your GT have the light to the right of the charging port?
EV6 does not have a light illuminating the charge port at night (and the charge status lights are so bright it's tough to see the charge port itself. Refreshed Ioniq 5 and EV6 fix these problems and have a charge port light. I stuck a little light on the inside of the charge port door to turn on if needed and this works great
Very interested in this mod. Any luck finding a new source for this harness?
haven't tried unfortunately

Kyle just needs to start manufacturing harnesses again! Next project... maybe.
Built my own harness... and PCB too. Notes: the trailer hitch connector provides a 'clean' brake light signal (not power) and ground (but ground can be used from the original brake connector). Front two wires are getting 'clean' turn signal lights (US rear brake/turn are combined on one wire). PCB with relays builds a Hazard Actuator (solid, not sequential for hazards as you stated). Front projector lights can also use the same PCB, just need a wire to the headlamps.
Hello, greetings, I have a question, I bought a mach e AWD that was manufactured in 07/2022 but I bought it in 01/2024 and it has been connected to the Wi-Fi for two months and no update has arrived and connected to Wi-Fi 24/7, look for information that if the APIM modules and the GWM are in the list of updates, they are not updated, the updates will not begin to flow, is this true?
I sold my pony to the glue factory, but from what I remember you're probably right. the GWM module is the gateway that manages sending the OTAs to the other modules. if it is stuck, nothing else is getting updated I believe. APIM I think is the infotainment as I remember. Try taking it to a dealer and making them fix it if you're still under warranty. I'm sorry, but that car has such crappy quality even when it came to software updates. It's laughable how much crap I had to plug in to my car to try and get fixes for the bad product bugs in the car, looking back on it
You own the car but you have to purchase a license to upgrade it? LOL
no you don't have to purchase a license to update it -- but Ford has very unreliable OTAs. Thanks for stopping by to my channel, Elon
