Default Re: Any way to charge the main battery ??

Fully depress the parking brake and shift to D. Fully depress the brake pedal. Press on the accelerator pedal. By pressing on the brake pedal while you depress accelerator pedal, you force the car (and therefore, MG2) to remain motionless. All of the power from the ICE will be directed to MG1, which will charge the high voltage traction battery.
