Power / Charge on the dash

I noticed that whenever I de-accelerate, the green Charge indicator kicks in but i have never seen any activity on the Power indicator. Is that normal, is that perhaps that the Hybrid aspect isn't working?

I don’t know if I can help but, it would help if we knew what kind of car you were talking about.

Sounds like an EQ Boost engine with the 48 V system? It should show the electric assist power when it kicks in.

You should see the blue power side at times as well. I also have a E450 AT and see the hybrid system applying power as well as the system charging. It does help with mild acceleration or to maintain speed on climbs without having to dip into the throttle or turbo boost.
