Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The status of charging events (including delays) is communicated to the user through a vehicle plug-in charge status indicator and audio tones. The vehicle plug-in charge status indicator, located on the top middle of the instrument panel, contains a green LED (charge status indicator) and yellow LED (charge pilot indicator) controlled by the Hybrid Powertrain Control Module 2 and a second green LED (charge complete indicator) controlled by the BCM. The indicator will have a short flash green when the vehicle is charging under automatic control. The flash rate increases from one to four as the battery charges. It will have a long flash green if the charging is delayed and will begin later. It will be illumined solid green when charging is complete. A solid lit yellow indicator means the vehicle is not able to accept a charge.
