Subject
T680E Battery Electric Vehicle Software Update R5.007
Whats New Abstract
A software update is available for T680E Battery Electric Vehicles. This software update corrects certain issues
with odometer and cold weather operation.
Condition
On certain Kenworth
T680E Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) with software R5.004, the following issues may be
experienced:
1. Odometer rapidly increases mileage when:
a. High Voltage system is OFF
b. Vehicle experiences any movement (for example, rolling any distance due to external forces)
Odometer increase requires a key cycle to stop.
2. In cold weather, the vehicle may not turn on immediately when the key is turned to the ON position.
This delay is dependent on ambient temperature. Colder ambient temperature causes a longer delay.
Chassis Affected
100 (84 US and 16 Canada) Model Year 2021-2025 T680E Battery Electric Vehicles with Vehicle software version
R5.004 or earlier, built from 8/28/2020 through 12/19/2023.
Action
Campaign

1. Review the attached chassis list for your dealer code and schedule your customer(s) for service if their
chassis is on the list.
2. In Service Management, select Campaign 46010 to add it to the case. If the unit is released back into
service without performing the repair, make sure to also release the Campaign in Service Management
