Need to download the manual and take a look at the error, but the last two days my car has not finished charging.

It just seems to stop at some random time (the charge timer is set to 7 am) and then displays an idiot light when I start up (the thing I need to look up, its a yellow car with an exclamation point). I know it does start charging (seen it start).

If I reboot the car, everything works fine, except for the lack of charge.

Anyone run into this before?

I only use a level one charger, and nothing for it has changed. It hasn't even moved in months.

Thanks
 
Well, just great.

From the manual:

EV system warning light

This light illuminates if there is a malfunction in the
following systems. Contact a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
• Traction motor and inverter system
• Charge port or on board charger
• Li-ion battery system
• Cooling system
• Shift control system
• Emergency shut off system is activated. See
Emergency shut off system in the EV overview
section.
 
Adding to TomT's post- the 2013 model had problems with the Power Distribution Module (PDM). Search this forum for the threads about this.

Has yours had the software update? It fixed this along with a few other issues...


No, haven't had any updates since I got the car in May.

Took the car in this morning, and they are actually going to do two updates while they are looking at the issue and do my first annual battery inspection as well. Should Have an update on it all later today.
