Hi
I have a 2013 Leaf brought from Japan. When I tried to start it in the morning no luck. My leaf spy gives a P31D4 000B EV/HEV Pre Charge Relay EVC-285 error, I also have had mice problems. The park button had stopped working about a month before and it was taking about 2 seconds for the drive or reverse to engage. When I pulled the center console between the seats, there was mouse damage but no cut wires. Same thing when I pulled the glove box assembly. I have replaced the 12 volt battery and I am keeping it charged.
I can drop the battery and I have a junction box from a 2011 Leaf. Is it possible that mice damage could cause the error? I am not looking forward to dropping the battery but want my ride back. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Derick
 
Start here on page EVC-328 of this https://ownersmanuals2.com/nissan/leaf-2013-repair-manual-ev-control-system-section-evc-43003

I would visually inspect every part of the wiring were mice have been. And check the connectors for damage. The other symptoms are almost certainly from wiring damage.

Some of the wiring harnesses are surprising affordable. Good parts diagrams here: https://partsouq.com/

Good luck, and remember to always disconnect the 12 volt battery before proceeding.
