False 12V alerts disappeared when triggering alert from ref - 2,0V.

    // Trigger 12V alert if voltage <= ref - 1.5 V:
    if (!(can_minSOCnotified & CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V)
            && (car_12vline <= (car_12vline_ref - *20*)))
    {
      can_minSOCnotified |= CAN_MINSOC_ALERT_12V;
      net_req_notification(NET_
NOTIFY_12VLOW);
    }
