Hello all,
I recently got A 2017 Volt with a 3.6kw charger and discovered the 2019 had a 7.2kw charger. From research online I've discovered this has been talked to death but nobody appears to have actual done the swap. To be clear, I have the 7.2kw charger in my possession as of this am.
I am like 99% sure this will be a straight plug and play swap but I am doing my due diligence to be sure.
Going over the 2017 & 2019 wiring diagrams I found online in the Chilton database, both years appear to have the same exact wiring. The low voltage data connections on the OBCM come from/go to the hybrid power control module 2, which communicates with most HV components and the battery via connectors X357 & X358, which are the black and gray low voltage harness connections going to the battery/relay center.
Any help with this project from those that have used Volt battery packs would be greatly appreciated.
As a side note, I did not post in the OEM EV section as once this is figured out, the component would benefit EV conversions as well as Volt owners.
