Hi

I am new to Leaf world, i had minor crash accident, front airbag deployed. Damage has been repaired but since crash car wont start and drive.

I assume like other EV-s, car has pyrofuse somewhere. Where is it located and do i need to clear crash data from Airbag ECU?

Regards
 
Need error codes to diagnose anything.
Since you are new to Leafs, you may not have heard about LeafSpy: it can pull DTC's. Otherwise you can do the same at a dealer/repair shop (like any other car).
 
My 2012 got rear ended with no airbags deployed; it would only go to partial READY allowing shift to N for rolling up the tow ramp, with or without disconnecting the 12V battery.

Down here in the south there is no wrecker company that allows cars to be driven up a flat-tow ramp--they are pulled up the ramp by a winch. Too much liability for a person to drive off the ramp and damage the rig.

It's doubtful that any wrecker company allows cars to be driven up a flat-tow ramp--they are pulled up the ramp by a winch.

I love being called a liar... Shm***!

'Minor' and 'airbag deployed' are rarely used in the same sentence.

I've read many stories of insurance companies totaling cars just because of airbag deployment but I don't know the reasons.
Did you put in a replacement airbag ?
