My vLinker seems to work, but gives a bluetooth error (see picture) I'm using my iPhone 13.
Any suggestions to overcome?
Thanks!!

Did it reconnect OK after the 3 seconds?
If it did, then I’d suspect the dongle had timed out temporarily, is it causing an issue with app?
I’m yet to get a working dongle so can’t really help.

Did you get the vLinker BM+4.0?
Try to pair again.

Does the Vgate vLInker-BM+-BT4.0 turn off by itself, or do you have to disconnect it all the time?
This is the right one?
You got this one?

Ok, it's like mine but I have android. Does it work even if it shows you that error?

It sometime works for a second. Mostly it doesn't and shows a BT communication error.

The TONWON Vgate vLinker MC+ works with the Power checK Control app.
It’s reported:
  • SoC: 33%
  • Ambient temp: 8C
  • Battery temp: 13.5C
  • Max battery capacity respect to new: 99.3%
When I get an opportunity to charge to 100% I’ll check again, assuming that it can be repeatedly checked.

Thank you for checking.
Do you go often to less than 20% SOC?
How many miles did you do?
When you charge to 100% please check the kWh with Power cruise control app.

I am afraid that since I almost never go lower than 35% it might have lost calibration because 89% SOH is very odd for me.
For over 1 year I always stayed as much as possible between 40% to 65%. Only on 3 occasions I had charged to 100% and once went down to 15%.
I have to go low as 5% and see if it changes anything. Just to try.
