Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for jumpstarting an electric vehicle may include an electronic control unit (ECU) accepting external power connected to an externally accessible location of the vehicle and performing recovery functions. The ECU may conduct diagnostics on the received power and execute jumpstart mode steps if the power is acceptable. These steps may include powering and activating a vehicle access system to authenticate a user, activating latches to allow vehicle access, or providing power to seats or other components in order to obtain battery access. The ECU may determine whether to charge the low voltage battery based on diagnostic results.
