    2016-2017 model year 30 kWh bar losers and capacity losses

    I got the BMS software update last week. Mine's a 2017 with 13k miles & 11/16 build. Before: 11 bars SOH=83.13% AHr=66.07 Hx=77.59% After: 12 bars SOH=92.24% Ahr=73.31 Hx=77.73%

    2016-2017 model year 30 kWh bar losers and capacity losses

    I usually try to stop charging around 90% to keep regen braking. Of course there's no setting for 80% charge anymore, so I often don't stop it in time and end up hitting 100%.

    2016-2017 model year 30 kWh bar losers and capacity losses

    One more datapoint for the mix: 2017 lost first bar at 11,200 miles and 84% SOH, Hx=81%. I'm certainly disappointed and expecting to need a replacement within the 8-yr warranty period. 11/16 build date. I bought it fresh off the truck; it was not sitting in the dealer lot. Location: Texas...

    2016 Altima Power Window Switch (lighted buttons!)

    Nice detective work! I wonder how much Nissan saved by skipping those three LEDs :roll:

    Navi safety override?

    Just did this on my 2017. Added a switch inline for pin 44. Works great! Same behavior as others have said: when disconnected all the nav options are enabled again, but your position also doesn't track well on the map.

    UPDATED- LEAF LED High-Beam upgrade

    It's the thin white plastic screw/knob that sticks out, right next to the blue knob.

    What is the name of this plug?

    ^^ great guide The Nissan connectors are actually Sumitomo brand, but many TE .25 plugs and terminals are compatible as you said. I also added a VSP Off button. Btw 25172-4NC0A is another valid part # for the VSP Off switch that fits the 2013+ holes, though 3NF0A is easier to find in the US...

    camera on while driving hack?

    I did this backup camera hack on my LEAF today. It is such a useless but funny mod :mrgreen: You are right you only need to override the reverse signal wire---I used the service manual from NicoClub http://nicoclub.com/manuals/Leaf/2014%20Leaf/av.pdf to find it. Even though the manual is for...

    HOW TO: Make the VSP (noisemaker) button default to off

    Scouring parts catalogs I found the VSP OFF switch for 2013-2017 LEAFs; figured I would post the part numbers to help others... There are two matching ones that work (I tried both). 25172-3NF0A can be found at some US dealers, I think it's used in Mexican market cars. I bought mine here for...

    LED tail lamps as combined brake/turn signals

    I don't have a before/after pic, but It should be a little more than twice as bright as stock because the reverse bulbs are 16W (type 921) and the turns are 21w (type 7440). The turn signals are probably not focused in any given direction, maybe that lessens the usefulness a bit for reversing.

    DAMMIT! NO auto-dimming mirror on 2017 SV

    1) I actually bought a OEM mirror kit for a Hyundai Accent 2012-13, sometimes you can find them real cheap on eBay. Compass/autodimming/Homelink. It included splices, wire cover, everything needed to install. It's Hyundai part 1R062 ADU01 but really just a Gentex ZTVHL3. Pretty much any Gentex...

    DAMMIT! NO auto-dimming mirror on 2017 SV

    On my 2017 SV the mirror was on a standard wedge mount. No set screw, just a friction spring clip... stick something in the slot on the bottom to push the spring and you can slide the mirror up and off. I swapped mine out with am autodimming Homelink mirror and tapped it into the overhead map...

    Disable VSP sound by software

    Does this disable the VSP reverse beep and low-speed noise forever (until you re-enable them or reset the battery) Or are the sounds re-enabled every time you start the car, like the VSP Off button behavior?

    Warning: Defective Konnwei KW-902 on the market

    Sure. Just checked and my new one has separate wires. I had actually opened the bad one before returning it, because I heard something loose inside thinking that might be the problem (it was a tiny ball of solder). I remember it looked different and had a little flat ribbon cable. This forum...

    Warning: Defective Konnwei KW-902 on the market

    Wow, I bought one off eBay recently and had this same problem (paired with phone but sent no valid data... eventual I-key error & T/M System Malfunction). I returned it for a refund, and bought another off Amazon which works. I wish I hadn't sent the bad one back already so I could check its...

    LED tail lamps as combined brake/turn signals

    Yep three wires... this is the seller I bought from: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RED-LED-Reflector-Rear-Bumper-Light-Fits-NISSAN-QASHQAI-2013-2014-2015-2016-/191737942493

    Hide the Launch Bar during map view?

    Is there any way to hide the Launch Bar on the bottom of the navigation screen, when the map is up? (the bar with Audio,Main,Settings,etc buttons) The launch bar takes up a lot of screen real estate, and is rather redundant since most of those have physical buttons offscreen. I think this bar...

    B mode brake lights

    Interesting idea. I believe the brake lights are purely controlled by the switch at the brake pedal, so you couldn't light them up through the port or can bus. Getting into the main meter to tap the regenerative brake status light sounds tricky, maybe it is easy but I bet you'd have to crack...

    Help: Homelink mirror upgrade on 2015 model S

    Besides the slight waste of electricity, the other possible downside on the map light power is you don't need a key to operate the Homelink buttons. So if you park outside that may be a security issue. Normal wire tap connectors are probably fine--I doubt the dealer will be removing your...
