Has anyone used one on a Leaf? Anything in particular I should look at?

so it would not be proper to post any of them.

IANAL, but I'm betting you're way off here.JeremyW said:Fair Usegarygid said:The screens are probably "copyrighted" material,

Notwithstanding the provisions of sections 17 U.S.C. § 106 and 17 U.S.C. § 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright
I'm assuming that you are not attempting to do this for financial gain. It's educational. Post away.
I have a pretty fancy scantool which I tried plugging into my Leaf a few weeks ago. It was flat-out unable to make a connection to the vehicle. It kept cycling through different protocols and eventually gave up with an error message.Goodtohave said:Has anyone used one on a Leaf? Anything in particular I should look at?

Not at all. It's just not documented anywhere outside Nissan, and the technicians are under an NDA about it. What you find out is never illegal. There just probably won't be many legal ways of doing it, simply because they don't exist.Nubo said:So, it's illegal for me to find out how MY car works?
