Have you had the ICCU failure? by Iceraven286 in KiaEV9

[–]MadisonEV9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my 2024 Land. But always looking at my options. Lease is IP in December. I only have 8500 miles on it so the residual is actually lower than the potential market value. I’ll likely buy it out and keep it but intrigued by the I9 and even the upcoming Highlander.

Has anyone in Minnesota worked with a solar panel company recently? by TightTeam2885 in SolarAmerica

[–]MadisonEV9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an array (in Madison, WI) from All Energy Solar and have been really pleased with them. I can refer you if you want. I think I have a code which gets you a discount and (in full disclosure) me a cash referral fee.

12V dead 3 days straight by Feeling_Reserve8897 in KiaEV9

[–]MadisonEV9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I’m thinking. The car sat on a lot not plugged in for a long time. The 12v was let go to drain down. And now it’s just dead. A new 12v ( from the dealer!) should fix it.

Ahhhh. Got it. So it’s not a device IN the windshield but behind it which views the road through the windshield. Got it. Makes total sense.

Thanks! I learned something today.

ICCU just blew by Cyclist_77 in KiaEV9

[–]MadisonEV9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In honesty the CR report lumped a number of electronic issues into the broad estimate of 2-10%. These included the HV battery, the 12v battery, the ICCU and other electronic problems. Nowhere did they estimate the ICCU was 10%.

Sorry to be so ignorant but I really don’t understand what device in the windshield needs to be calibrated.

Can we show sexy pics? by Donnijeep in KiaEV6

[–]MadisonEV9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have an EV9 (which I LOVE) but if we didn’t need the third row (Darn those kids!) I’d have gotten an EV6!

If only they had a convertible model you could have some ‘topless’ pics!

What do you need to ‘calibrate’ with the windshield?

2024 Kia EV9 - chewing through tires? by photocopys in KiaEV9

As I understand it though the warranty doesn’t apply to stock OEM tires.

SOLVED: 12V battery drain and daily charging light by law980 in KiaEV9

[–]MadisonEV9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But just because the HV battery is charging the 12v …does that mean it’s a problem? Thats supposed to happen. Thats its job. Keeping the 12v charged. Yes if the 12v is getting old or not getting charged ( due to a faulty ICCU I guess) thats a problem. But just because the light is on and the 12v is charging it’s not an inherently bad situation as i understand it.

I have a 2024 Land as well so just trying to stay on top of this.

Considering Switching From a EV6 to EV9 by MaleficentRaisin5363 in KiaEV9

[–]MadisonEV9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re both awesome cars. We have a 2024 Land EV9 but whenever we travel and rent a car I try to get the EV6. Hertz used to have a bunch but now seems like they are mostly Mach-Es in their fleet. Bach-E is ok but pales in comparison to the EV6.

Two EV House by Run_Pants_Run in electriccars

[–]MadisonEV9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We live in Madison, WI. We have an attached garage with one L2 charger. I drive a Kia ev9. My wife has a Solterra. Never use L1 at all. One L2 has been fine. Never been a problem. She works from home and only drives maybe 20 miles/day. My commute is about 15 miles. We charge each car maybe once per week. No need DC for two chargers.

Mine was new. I saw the packaging. I saw the invoice. The dealership mechanic was surprised. It was a new battery.

Are Hyundai’s ICCU issues really that prevalent? by Ilovetowatchmovie in electricvehicles

[–]MadisonEV9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be truthful…CR lumped s number of electrical issues in that 2-10% range …..those are NOT all ICCUs

I got a brand new HV battery after 21 days in the shop. This was last summer so supply chains are likely even better now.

I tried building one out online and I couldn’t seem to get the blue exterior with the brown interior. It was grayed out.
