OBD BLE reconnect

After the first charging stop, ABRP often looses connection to the vlink BLE dongle. Low level connection works, but reading the SoC (or any other value) fails. Displayed values are random, then. Finding the menu item where to restart BLE connection is a terrible (is it only me having trouble finding it while on the road?). And reconnection often doesn’t work. Seems one has to reboot all systems…

The use case: Stopping at a charge station, leaving the car (taking the phone, of course), go i.e. shopping. Coming back and continue driving: Display of SoC and BLE connection is green and turns to yellow or red after a while. Sometimes it stays green but displays wrong values.
