Title: Force SOC reset.
Post by: Mike W on February 09, 2015, 07:29:58 AM

I upgraded my classic 150 to the Jan 8th code last night. This morning I noticed the classic wasn't talking to the WIzbang. After disconnecting and then reconnecting the purple wire to Aux 2, the WIzbang was back online. However the SOC is showing 37% which is way low (should be about 86%).
I've looked in the manuals but didn't see a way to manually reset the SOC to 100. Is there a way to do this or when the Classic goes to float this afternoon will it straighten out? It had been working great previously to the code upgrade.
Thanks,
Mike

Yes letting it go to float once will recalibrate it to 100%.

You should also be able to reset it to 100% manually by going to the WB Jr. status menu, pressing the
soft-left key (MORE) and then (I think) hold down the LEFT ARROW key and hold down the ENTER
key for just a moment (second or less) and the flashing SOC% should stop flashing and be sitting
at 100% SOC.

Thanks boB for that reset trick. Knew that you had mentioned it here before, but forgot just where it was. Thanks, Vic
