Hello
Hello, I just bought a nice 2012 leaf knowing that the onboard charger could be a weak link. It would be nice to have a spare and learn how to repair them. That is still a little more than I would like to spend for a broken one, but I am interested.Would you be willing to ship it to...
A critter chewed on some of my wires and my charge door wouldn't open. I have a 2013 US built Leaf. I was confused by some of the YouTube videos and explanations. I finally found the hinged door that is snapped shut! I took some photos and will upload them later. I think the photos will...
The original poster did not ask us if it made sense, he asked if it was possible to do. That is what I responded to. I have a 1986 Suzuki Samaria. It has carburetor that is probably more complex and challenging to rebuilt than a leaf battery pack. That carburetor was at the end of an era...
This is to answer some questions about my battery cooling setup. I attached the micro fiber towels with super magnets before putting the battery in the car. I also fabricated a drip system out of 1/4 soaker hose and tubing from home depot. I also attached these to the top of the battery...
You know buying a carb rebuild kit or an engine overhaul kit cost less than a new carb or engine. You would think that you could use this same logic for a battery pack. Buying the modules should cost less than buying a new battery pack.
From my investigation on the internet, it maybe possible to upgrade/rebuild a 24 kWh battery to 40 kWh. The 40 kWh modules are said to fit. They are a double stack compared to the 24s. The LBC will need to be upgraded because of the firmware differences and different balancing chips. The...
I live in the desert southwest. Because it is dry here, evaporative cooling works great. I drip distilled water onto micro-fiber towels on top of the battery case. I use a small positive displacement chemical pump that has a capacity of 3 gallons a day. The pump only runs when the car is on...
Thanks Alozzy. I have added my location. Ital74, it is definitely a 2019 Leaf S Plus. It doesn't have Leather seats. By "sub" are you referring to the sub frame? If yes then the motor/inverter drive and sub frame are complete and in perfect condition.
Update 01-04-2024. I have decided to keep all of the drive train and controls to upgrade my 2012 Leaf! I have harvested the 62 kWh battery along with some other parts. In my state I can not sell this car to an individual as a repairable car. I will be selling it as parts. It is a 2019 Leaf S...
I have harvested the 62 kWh battery along with some other parts. In my state I can not sell this car to an individual as a repairable car. I will be selling it as parts. It is a 2019 Leaf S Plus. It had 5,000 miles on it when it was totaled out. I have posted some photos on Imgur...
Hello Guys I just completed an upgrade to my 2013 Leaf SV. I put in a 62 kWh battery pack from a wrecked 2019 Leaf S Plus. I bought the whole car and am glad that I did. Having the whole car allowed me to see how Nissan dealt with installing the taller battery. it also allowed me to have...
