solar would provide for heating even if the BMS had cut power. Not sure the solar will work with no battery connected. ;)
The solar might burn out the charge controller with no battery connected. I wonder if a capacitor would prevent that from happening?
I find it ironic that a generator may be needed to provide for heating the battery bank.
The solar panel disconnect switch would be turned off until the situation was stabilized.
Controller needs 8 volts to wake up and operate. Small 9v battery should be able to jump start. Power would go to the heaters until the BMS allows charging. Yes the generator could get it working. Same for rolling out and getting power from the vehicle.
If the furnace and battery heaters are running continuous it should still give two full days of run time to figure it out.
