It's time to ask how many of you have had a 12 volt battery problem on your I-Pace! What was the problem and what was the fix?
I am simply flabbergasted that various different manufacturer's seem to have 12V problems. I have also noticed 12V batteries on ICE cars don't last as long as they used to. Have we forgotten how to make a good 12V battery? Is it to save $40??? And why don't we have a manual way to start the DC-DC converter so the traction battery can charge the 12V battery when it's in a low state? Right now, all the systems have to turn on successfully for that to happen. Or, perhaps the battery system should turn on first and then determine if other systems should turn on. That would prevent the car from "draining itself" like it does when the 12V gets too low.
Anyway, let's hear about your 12V issues so we can have a thread for future reference.
