The primary use of the van is to transport students from Maritime North facility to the lower campus and for student-essentials shopping. The van can be used for other purposes within the battery range. The van is rated to travel 120-130 miles with one full charge, however, the manufacturer’s advice is to maintain a 20% minimum charge and recharge again. The van is now ready for use. There was a software issue that restricted the charging of the battery. This issue is now resolved.  The technician test drove the van up to Fairfield on Wednesday and Thursday. The telematics screen shows the live status of the charge and the miles. The shuttle program is in need of cadet workers and currently waiting for approval.

You would charge the 12v the same way you “jump start” the vehicle and then plug the vehicle into your L2 or L3 charger that you use to charge the high voltage (HV) batteries. Depends on how drained the system is, it may require to be charge for a long period of time. You may need to disengage the driveshaft to move the vehicle to neutral if you need to move it near a charger.
