Finally had a few days to have another go at integrating the extra pack. Mux thanks for your input, I saw your recent videos and had actually came to the same conclusion that mosfets were the only way to safely integrate new relays without the leaf realising - so thank you for proving that it...
Checked insulation across high voltage splices and all seems to be ok. Removed all new connections at the data connector and checked for any short circuits there - all seems ok. Still getting the same error set. When the errors are cleared the car drives absolutely normally.
I am noticing that...
So things haven't gone quite to plan. For one glorious moment I seemed to have control of the extra pack relay controlled via the leaf itself with a separate breaker switch on the dash.
Unfortunately on restart I now have errors:
P0AA4 0009 EV/HEV QNRH Hybrid Batt Negative Contactor EVC -...
Wow, what a relief!
OBD2 reader finally arrived at 7:30pm and I've just plugged it in to the leaf.
only had 2 error codes:
P31E7 000B EV/HEV Restart Inhibition EVC-310
P0AA6 0008 EV/HEV Hybrid Batt Volt Sys Isolation EVC-157
cleared DTCs and the leaf is back to the way it was. Suddenly has 28%...
Thanks for the reply. I'm hoping that you are right. I have come to the conclusion through plenty of research over the last few days that I've done one of three things - damaged the pre charge circuit (worst case scenario as I will then have to break open the main pack to replace the resistor)...
Hello all,
bit of a desperate plea for help I'm afraid.
I've been working on a range extender for my leaf - The packs are fully built and balance charging as we speak.
This morning I have spliced two high voltage cables to the HV cable between the battery and inverter (No extra battery...
