    Disable VSP sound by software

    sorry to resurrect this old thread, but i have a few questions that is related to the VSP menu in LeafSpy Pro: - beyond the checkboxes for the enable/disable sounds, two buttons appear once the VSP settings are "ready" to be changed (i.e. no "not supported error"). one is a horn/speaker and the...

    cannot re-enable VSP sounds in LeafSpy Pro?

    Been many years since I turned off all the VSP sounds on our 2014 SL. I'm currently trying to enable it, especially the backup beep since I now live in a condo and it would be nice to warn people in the parkade. Before I was parked in my backyard very close to neighbours and the sound coming in...

    2014 Battery Stats

    22 Feb 2018. 2014SL. ~49000km. 100 SOH, 97.77 HX. 24 QC and 2111 L1/L2. Montreal, QC. We got the car in late 2017 and SOH was 94%. Previous owner did mostly L2 charging. A few things that happened after getting it: 1.) we took a deep discharge until --- the first day we got it, not...

    Car dies while driving

    is this a new PDM, or did this issue only start up recently? because the car boots up fine, and power cuts out randomly while driving, i don't think its the 12V especially since you just replaced it. i had very similar symptoms after a warrantied PDM replacement on our '14 SL. also, on long...

    LeafSpy reading serial/part numbers

    Does LeafSpy reliably read serial numbers and part numbers under the "Read ECU" page? I had a PDM replaced on a 2014SL, and when it was newly installed I could see its part number (3NF7D), as well as the serial number. It was listed as: This was in late December 2017. I had some issues after...

    Easiest way to activate an EVSE using passive components

    great, thanks! i will most likely go with the two-stage route with a switch connected to the second resistor.

    whats the name of this connector? (PDM to/from car)

    Any idea what this connector is called, and the manufacturer part number? my first guess was amphenol but couldn't find anything that looks like it. in terms of official parts, i think its at the end of this cable that goes into the PDM/inverter assembly. i guess it's possible its a custom...

    Easiest way to activate an EVSE using passive components

    I'm trying to build a device powered by an EVSE's J1772 connector, and would like to know what the easiest way to trigger the activation is. Based on my understanding, all I really need is an inline diode on the pilot pin, connected to passive resistor from pilot to ground (2.74k), and then a...

    Heater or A/C While Charging?

    apologies if resurrecting old threads is bad manners, but i *think* this is relevant to this thread... what i'm finding somewhat baffling here is the decision to allow the fan/blower to turn on during half-on mode. this moving of cold air around doesn't really do anything, *except* drains the...

    new PDM, very strange issues

    update: fixed! intermittent short on a low voltage signal harness to the PDM, caused by some water that was freezing/thawing. cleaning out and reconnect seems to have solved it. (fingers crossed). how that water got in in the first place is something we're still not sure of (i have some...

    Juicebox Pro 40: Feedback

    i have a funky temperature reading when its super cold (when it is -25C out and unit is idle, it says 95C or something ridiculous but if its a bit warmer then it seems to show the correct temperature). Otherwise than this minor glitch it works great. the time of use features are region specific...

    big cell differences during driving+very cold temperature

    Is it normal to see much larger cell differences when the battery is loaded? When driving, it was showing a max cell difference of around 150mV. SOC around 80% Very cold outside. (Battery temps about -10C) see LeafSpy screenshot here: https://i.imgur.com/nVWqrEc.png When the car is idle, or...

    Leaf does not charge beyond 88SOC

    very good to know. thanks! (and sorry OP for slightly hijacking the original thread!)

    Leaf does not charge beyond 88SOC

    this is a bit of a long shot and may be totally unrealted, since i'm experiencing problems that no-one else seem to have seen before and even the local tech at the dealer has no clue about... one of the things i looked into when my charger was stopping randomly mid-charge was cooling issues. i...

    new PDM, very strange issues

    Good to know! The redeeming factor for battery life here is that it’s cold for a large portion of the year. The 2014SL we have is sitting at 48000km and 96% SOH. For many Canadian Leafs even a 2011 that doesn’t have 10 or 11 bars is a cause for concern. At this point we’re more concerned with...
