An Open Vehicle Monitoring System contributor added support for 2022-on Maxus eDeliver 3 vans with CATL LFP battery packs, which the old code did not cover.

The full story

The Open Vehicle Monitoring System already supported the Maxus eDeliver 3 electric van, but only older models with NMC battery packs. Newer vans use CATL LFP packs, and this pull request adds support for them.

The contributor, who earlier sent OVMS code for a Renault Twizy, had already reverse engineered the van's CAN and UDS frames with others on the GoingElectric forum. They say most of the new code was written by Claude, based on the old code and their own ESPHome Maxus project.

What this is. Real projects where people used Claude to build, fix, port, revive or take apart something, from jailbroken Kindles to rebuilt DOS games, plus the times it went badly wrong. Every build links to where it was shared, and every source is listed here.

How far to trust it. We summarise what people reported and say what each build rests on: a full write-up with code, a short post, or a passing comment. We haven't tested them ourselves. Photos are shown from the original sources with credit. Only modify hardware you own, and back up first.
