    I often work on these cars. They're pretty easy once you learn what you're doing. Unless I'm missing something, you never checked if the coolant level sensor was faulty before trying to clear the code or flashing the module. I've gotten burned on that before. Also, needing to reprogram the module to clear the code is a bug in the software that GM never fixed. It wasn't designed that way. They were just too cheap to get their engineers to write new software that fixes the glitch.

      @emmettturner9452 Год назад +20

      Indeed. You can literally trigger this issue just by pushing the float down with your finger in the HV coolant surge tank. Sometimes, I hate GM. EDIT: LOL! Still watching the video and I just got to the part where he checked for the updated tank with an anti-tamper cap. Is that really GM’s solution?! ;)

      @@Ram14250 it’s by design so it’s not a bug. They were scared of battery fires and huge warranty/recall expense if they don’t disable charging and the coolant leaks into the cells. There are coolant fins between every cell so there is plenty of opportunity for a leak. Of course, they got all the fires and warranty recalls they could handle with the Bolt EV but it wasn’t their fault (one single robot at LG was miscalibrated).
      My issue with the design is that it isn’t more robust and resistant to tampering, plus, it can trigger for no reason even if it isn’t caused by a curious finger bumping the float in the surge tank. Heck, imagine if the whole car turned upside-down! Every system would trigger.

    My 2012 GM/Holden volt did this about 18 months ago not long after it had a full coolant replacement by GM/Holden dealer. A Google search showed this to be a common issue. I simply added about 100ml of dex-cool to the “anti-tamper” tank (coolant line above side sticker) then reset the trouble code. No problems since with approx 20,000km and stored outside.

    Relocate the sensor from under the reservoir and wire it up next to the HPCM2. you can locate the two wires with your multi meter set to continuity or buzz and they will be next to each other on connector. The problem with the car is the LONG thin wire to the sensor when powered up is only 3.5 volts on the power side and connected to a 24K ohms resistor " way too much" and the module is looking for a voltage drop to disable charging, module is made to not charge once voltage drop is detected. They made this circuit so the module would be looking for a voltage drop on a supply of only 0.00014 amps. come on GM ... If you put the sensor under the passenger seat keep an eye on the tank level for leaks. PS the dealer had my car 3 times and couldn't fix it there next step they said would be $2200.00 to drop the battery and check the modules.

    Similar issue happened to my best friends dad's car. 2012 volt. Had him bring it by the shop, he told me this is the third time it happened to him, first two GM covered, third one was out of warranty. He only had the coolant level fault along with the contractor opened from the fault code. Coolant level sensor read something like 1.2kohm when low, 6.8kohm when at the correct level. Not your standard closed circuit when low, open when at the right level. The magnetic float internal to the tank had gotten coolant in it, replaced the tank because of the float, and ran into the same problem. Couldn't clear the code, I couldn't reprogram it at the time from not having the hardware, and still had to send him to GM to get the module reprogrammed after the repair. Never had to reprogram a module from a bad coolant float before. Just ridiculous.

      I think it's just referring to the insulation resistance, where it had to be above 325k ohms (or whatever it was). and the live data said it's now 3000k ohms, so it is actually "open". But I do agree with your question, because why is the special function even there if you can never use it anyway, and have to get it programmed? Pretty strange. I'm not doubting his choice to program it though, because it did say right there in the service info: that it would need to be programmed even if it was current. Kinda of a sh^tty design. Seems like the dealer should have to do that as a recall or something; since the code is tripped, yet there's nothing actually wrong with the car. Never buy a volt-- that's what I've learned. lol

      Incase you didn't know when you pull the door handle the hybrid battery starts charging the 12V battery if sitting a long time the battery could be low so what happened is you got in your car and pressed the blue start button right away or too fast, should have waited for the dash to show READY at that time the 12V battery has the voltage boosted up to the mandatory voltage. Supper important the voltage is up before pressing the blue button. Because the fluid sensor in the hybrid battery reservoir sends a message to the module under the passenger seat to disable charging.

    My Chevy Volt 2012 with 105000 miles was charging as usual, last week the charger showed red light and I’ve got an engine light on. I brought it to the garage, no diagnostic was given. they said it could be a faulty charger cable. I tried to charge with other cable at a public ev charger and it also went red. It doesn’t charge. I suspect it might be the charging port since the battery doesn’t run low in volts and keeps regen. I am about to order a new charging port for a diy repair, the new part costs about €315 (340 usd) to import here in Europe, however, I am afraid i will have to bring it to a dealer to reprogram if the error doesnt clear, which might cost a lot. And I can only hope that changing the port will solve the issue. Any ideas or suggestions before I get myself into the challenge?

      pouch cells are _hermetically_ sealed in an aluminized plastic film - you would have to rupture the film for coolant to get in (that's IF there actually was an internal coolant leak). that said, I really hope future tech will eliminate the need for water cooling except for some specialized high performance applications. The Leaf only uses air cooling for its batteries - but historically, this proved problematic to longevity.

      mine for lithium or drill for oil/gas ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ... there are vast "badlands" in the US with accessible lithium deposits (permitting is another matter) - but unlike gasoline, the Lithium can be recycled for new batteries in the future. As far as generating electricity - it depends on where you live and each locations combined grid fuel mix. Even in ~100% coal burning areas, the amount of produced CO2, NOx and CO is still less when sourced from a grid's combined cycle powerplant running at 60% thermal efficiency rather than running a 20% efficient gasoline engine 100% of the time. Next gen nuclear would end most of this speculation, but...
