Welcome Robert :-)<br>
<br>
Basic setup of the Kia firmware is the same as for other models. So
you can follow the Roadster guide or one of the Twizy guides first.<br>
<br>
You wrote to me you got the module from a friend, so you should
first flash once without preserving EEPROM to get a clean config to
start with.<br>
<br>
Follow Marks link to the support FAQ if you get stuck in the config
process. To diag LED flash codes, also take a look at the state
machine diagram in the main docs folder. If you need help, describe
exactly (!) which doc you've been following and what you have done
so far.<br>
<br>
If you're stuck at 10/9... maybe you should first check if the SIM
card has contact.<br>
<br>
Kia V0.1 only reads some first status messages and obtains the VIN
if you enable CAN write access (FEATURE 15 1). I've currently got
one positive and one negative test feedback for this version.<br>
<br>

Would be great if you could also check V0.2 -- it's in my account on
github:<br>

<br>
This _should_ be able to show some first OBD diag data dumps (DEBUG
1 / 5)... as I don't have a Kia, I need qualified beta test
feedback.<br>

all,
<br>
<br>
I'm replying to Micheal Balzer's email from yesterday. I wasn't
on the mailing list until late yesterday afternoon, hence I'm not
able to click reply.
<br>
<br>
I've got a Kia Soul EV 2016 in Canada which doesn't have the UVO
services, so this is of great interest to me.
<br>
<br>
I have the OVMS kit in front of me, but I'm a total newbie, so I'm
reading through some guides to get started.
<br>
<br>
Just wanted to say that I'll gladly be the guinea pig for this.
<br>
<br>
What I'd REALLY like is to have a way to remotely turn on the
climate control system to warm up/cool down the car at will.
Hopefully that's a remote possibility. Tracking it is cool, but
controlling it is even better. I'm used to a Tesla (my other
car), so I am quite spoiled.
<br>
<br>
I did get Micheal's firmware installed on the OVMS and hooked it
up to the car but it's not booting properly (based on status
LEDs). Can that be because of the firmware or is the bootup
sequence separate from the car-control code?
<br>
<br>
The LEDs flash like - 10 Green, 9 Green, 10 Green, 9 Green, then a
few reds, then green and red flash together really fast.
<br>
<br>
I tried sending text messages to the board and no dice.
<br>
<br>
Any help would be appreciated, looking forward to getting this
working!
<br>
<br>
Robert
