When starting the Active Test, observe the Data List 
to verify that SMRB and SMRG are ON. If the SMRs 
do not turn ON, IG OFF and then IG ON and start the 
Active Test again.

After starting the Active Test, you 
have 30 seconds to press NEXT 
on the GRX-5100 control panel.  
If you miss the 30-second 
window, charging will abort. You 
will need to cycle the ignition to 
begin the procedure again.

As charging is taking place, 
monitor the battery voltage. 
If battery is insufficiently 
charged (not above minimum 
voltage) after first 10-minute 
cycle, repeat the charge cycle.

Battery Charge Active Test

The Battery Charge Active Test turns on SMRB and 
SMRG so the battery can be charged through the frame 
wire.  To locate this Active Test, navigate to Powertrain 
> Hybrid Control > Active Test > Battery Charge.
