"Escalation" line was just the EV 877-line all over again, repeating the same thing, that it's a "hard no" and that there's no one to speak to any higher than them I guess BBB is my next (last?) resort

I got a Consumer Affairs agent to escalate me--they were supposed to call by EOD 10/31/17 but haven't reached out yet Based on replies, looks like my next best move is BBB complaint?

This program has apparently ended--I am on the unfortunate end of it I made a thread about it here: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=24800&p=509647#p509647

What a bummer. There is obviously something amiss with these early-model Leafs, which is why Nissan initially extended the warranty programs (thanks in large part to the outcry from this community) Instead of doubling down on that support, they have now canceled the Good Will Program altogether...

Nissan kept the EVSE and gave me a replacement one - the issue has not happened since So the mystery remains unsolved for me, but has passed on to Nissan's capable hands...

I wish one of us had thought of that, but we didn't :( I won't be able to visit the dealer until next week to have them look at the charger/car

Electrician just left - ground, voltage, GFCI all tested fine on the outlet So now it's down to either the car itself, the L1, or a pinched nerve? I've tried holding the receptable (not plugged into anything) to try to replicate the pinched nerve effect but haven't been able to as of yet

Used this tester, plugged it in, pressed the button and it tripped the GFCI (as it's supposed to) and no lights - so the outlet is all good?

I'm not ruling that out either, as there is major nerve right at the junction between the thumb and the index finger - i will try testing that by unplugging the evse and trying to simulate the position/motion of plugging it in Thanks

It was a continuous buzz - it was like when kids put their tongues on those square batteries, but about 10 times that strength If it's a 'sneak path' of DC as someone else mentioned, could that mean it's coming from the car itself?

I didn't even think of that but you're definitely right - I should get a third-party electrician to look at that - if he was at fault in any way when installing it (if it's not deterioration) then he probably wouldn't see his own mistake Thank you edit: ordered the exact outlet tester in your...

1. Thanks for asking - it has subsided over the last few days - my biggest concern is how long it's been going on, and if I may have done any damage with lower-level shocks if it has been going on for longer than I have realized 2. I haven't taken it to the dealer yet - I wanted to first get...

That wasn't my intention - as I'm sure you know, it's common vernacular for this type of event and that was how I meant it - the title has since been changed

The outlet was specifically installed several years ago on a "high-amp" circuit (don't know the specifics) as was required at the time to power a home refilling station for a CNG vehicle. I think we even had to pull a permit to install it? Don't know if that changes anything Thanks everyone...

I'm not an 'electrophobe', I'm someone who doesn't emotionally deal well with actual health issues - that doesn't mean I have ever imagined or invented them.
