When you replace a battery you will need to reset the BMS or else the car will not know a new battery has been fitted!
The BMS will eventually do a self-reset & the charging rate will adapt to the new battery!

 

cool
easy procedure?
not in car right now got scared it would've left me somewhere
so doing that would possibly clear up that noise and reset the sysyem??

 

Definitely sounds like low battery. But BMS reset prob not going to fix that. You need to charge battery.
Measure battery voltage with engine off - what does it measure? You need to fully charge up the battery with a charger or on a long drive. And then test to ensure the alternator is working to keep it charged once running

You are 'technically' meant to reset bms but it will catch up by itself and I've never reset it myself in 10 years and a few battery changes and not had any issues

 

well I did change the battery right before that video
yea the volts were low when they put the machine to check it

so now I'm like wtf
Im hoping it's not the starter

 

any idea on the reset procedure?
I Google and it said sonething about putting in some radio code and the parking brake and windows
the brake and windows didn't change as the auto place put a memory saver thing on the obd port

thanks yall

 

Some basic info on BMS here

http://www.londonroadgarage.com/imag...monitoring.pdf

You need a code reader tool with Jag specific functionality to reset it. I have the icarsoft LRII and I've read that it does BMS reset (I've never bothered - it recalibrates itself over time anyway)

 

ah it resets/recalibrates itself
ok good to know
seems like that noise in the video is slowly going away and it's starting a but faster now maybe thats it...glad otlr at least it gives me hope that it's not the starter

ty for the info yall
