Yes, I did it but got stuck with the <DATA ERROR message. I was trying to send some commands and understand the 11 bit examples but isn't too clear. Thanks Jim.

Hi Gary, Yes, it makes sense and I was doing that. I think I found the problem. When I was monitoring the 5bc message (and some others) I was getting "<DATA ERROR" messages together with the bytes. Apparently the PCI message byte is in some way invalid and creates this message. Turning of the...

Correct, there is a PIC18F25K80 in there. I also got the information about the AT commands as well. Since you did your meter/CAN sniffer, you may know it better. I was wondering what are the 11 bits ID and commands I have to send to retrieve the information I need (e.g. the bytes on the 5BC...

Hi Gary, Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am using the mini ELM327 with Bluetooth (BT). I am not reading multiple buses simultaneously, only one at a time using a switch. I opened the mini ELM, found the pins to the BT (TX and RX and other signals) and added some wires to piggy back some...

Gents, I modified an ELM327 to build my own CAN interface and check some messages. My ELM can now read the EVCAN and the AVCAN. I was wondering if somebody can help me with some information. What are the addresses and parameters (11 bit ID bits and other parameters or AT commands) that I have...

Oops, sorry if I posted this under a new topic. It is supposed to go under the "Using clone ELM327 Bluetooth OBDII adapter with Leaf" topic, I assume... Newbie to post in this forum. :)

Thanks Gary! I checked some of your stuff and I am very impressed. :) Still digesting the information. For the EVSE I read it and I got the information on how the J1772 works, so I am designing from scratch my own EVSE, rather than the already designed. I plan to add some nice features and...

Thanks Greg. I will!!! :) Q

Hi Gary, Team, I got a 2012 LEAF a few months ago and I very interested in "hacking" some CAN data from the 3 main buses and cooperate with the group. I am an EE with quite a good amount of experience in SW and HW and I was wondering the fastest way to start reading and decoding data, without...

Hello folks, I was wondering if you have ideas of a cool design decal for the LEAF that makes it stand out that it is a fully electric vehicle, not a standard or hybrid car. The ActiveE BMW has sort of a cool printed circuit board (PCB) design that makes it distinctive...

Thanks Philip. I am already getting used to it. LOVE IT. And yes, I have this evil, mean looking EV grin when I drive next to a gas guzzler or even a Prius... ;)

Thanks to all again! Amazing help all your comments. Now it is official, I joined the club :)

Thanks to all for the excellent feedback!!! Calling Boardwalk and doing carwoo and fine-tuning my numbers. Love this community. Thx!

I am planning to lease a 2012 SL LEAF and want to make sure that I am not being ripped off. I am dealing with the Sunnyvale Nissan dealer offering: - 36 months - $3,000 down (includes doc. prep.=$80, license/title=$332, bank fee=$595, others=$48) - Month payment $275 (total) for 36 months -...
