    Door Speakers & Subwoofers in my Leaf

    It's official. CDT speakers suck, sound and quality. My L/R speaker stopped working, I took it apart only to find that the braided cable from the j-block to the cone was burnt. I fixed it, but they will go out in the first chance I get. I still have a set of infinity left over from my Honda...

    Aerovironment EVSE trouble light blinking

    Moisture in the handle could be an issue, we have had rain in our area last week and that is when the problem started. I will check the grounds just in case.

    MY ZEV license plate at LAX, Why did you unplug my Leaf?

    Camera is a great idea, there are some that are motion activated and don't consume much power. Thank you for the idea. Sadly, this week I gave up on driving my Leaf to the Airport, I have not been able to find available charging spots, a lot of the chargers are blocked by cars not charging at...

    MY ZEV license plate at LAX, Why did you unplug my Leaf?

    This thread took a life of its own. Too funny. I'm the one who got disconnected. I work here and it was not the only or the last time. Three weeks ago I walked into T1 and I got a text message that my charging was terminated, I walked back to the parking structure and I noticed a gal with a...

    The Speeding Ticket Thread - Confess Your Sins

    No ticket, but wondering if Nissan will bite me for driving it to the limit 95 MPH. 5 of us, all adults, Southbound on the 57, long downhill before the 10. At 95 it hits a wall, it will not do one more tick.

    Door Speakers & Subwoofers in my Leaf

    No connectors, I'm not sure they are available for the system we have in the Leaf. Cut all the 8 wires to the speakers, connect the amplifier in series (not much documentation available). Power from the cigarrete lighter, positive and negative. The remote ON is wired to the cigarrete lighter as...

    Door Speakers & Subwoofers in my Leaf

    I replaced the two front speakers with the CDT speakers and I was not that impressed with the sound. Better, but nothing like my Mini or my Lexux Hybrid, or my previous Honda Hybrid. By now I was commited to the replacement of the four speakers so I went ahead and completed the replacement. By...

    LAX terminal 6 chargers

    The policy for the free parking for electric vehicles is for the parking structures that have been designated with/for electric car parking. You may move between structures that are connected. It is better to exit out of P1 and P6 because those attendants are aware of the free parking policy...

    Low tire pressure warning

    The system was on, my son was setting up the blutooth. I guess you can call it position I or accessory. Loss of traction on a Leaf? mmmmm, I don't know what that is. Loss of traction on a Mini Cooper S? = nice youtube video with lots of smoke. I've seen me do it. I don't think the comment...

    Charging at Nissan Dealers

    My son has a picture of the charger for the Puente Hills Nissan dealer chargers. They are installed on a wall, next to the showroom. Outside the showroom there is a "sidewalk" where they place their "hot cars", it is the outdoor showroom. You have to drive up a curb and push one of the show cars...

    Low tire pressure warning

    I guess this has not been mentioned before. The tires are rated for 44 PSI, that is the tire manufacturer rated pressure on the sidewall. When I picked up my Leaf something did not look right with the tires (I worked at Goodyear for a few years and got to know a lot about black donuts). I...

    Should I forget about LAX now that AB 475 passed?

    Right you are Mike. The parking attendants do not check where the car is parked. Most of the EVs are around the chargers anyways. DrRocket, here's the scenario. EV connected to the charger. No blinking lights. No message on the dashboard or windshield. = It is assumed you already got a full...

    MY ZEV license plate at LAX, Why did you unplug my Leaf?

    Yep, MY ZEV is still on his honey moon or witness protection program. The note is still there, showing some weathering now. This morning bot L2 were "on the hook" and an empty space in fron of one of them. Life is good today, I think I got 95% charge, wasn't finished when I returned and still...

    MY ZEV license plate at LAX, Why did you unplug my Leaf?

    Wow, this thread went all over the place. Update as of Thursday, 9/1/11, 6:00 AM. MY ZEV is still there. So much of a hurry to stop my charging to get his. Leaf full of dust. The place was packed to the gills this morning. I was not able to find a charger L1 or L2. I drove to the other side...

    MY ZEV license plate at LAX, Why did you unplug my Leaf?

    Thank you all. Mike, where is the meet? I have been wanting to join a group. I was involved in Volvo groups until 4 yrs ago. Regarding notifications. This is what I did. When plugged to a charger, make sure the system is enabled to save the charger automatically. Even if it is a trickle...

    MY ZEV license plate at LAX, Why did you unplug my Leaf?

    Mike, thank you again. Saw your note on MY ZEV's Leaf and your note on mine. Very appreciated. I unplugged my Leaf, then stretched the cord to MY ZEV and activated with my card. I talked to my friend in T1, he got to my Leaf about 5 minutes after I got my text message, he was outside of T1...
