BMW 3: High-voltage connections

At the Electrical Machine Electronics, there is a total of three high-voltage connections to connect the lines for other high-voltage components. The connections for the electric A/C compressor and the electrical heating are on the convenience charging electronics.

Connections

The following simplified wiring diagram shows the high-voltage connections between the Electrical Machine Electronics and the other high-voltage components.

    Adaptive recuperation uses the data and calculations of the route-ahead assistant. In this way, adaptive recuperation can be used by the navigation system when route guidance is both active and not being used. When the route guidance is not active, the most likely route is used for evaluation. H
