Now that we've sorted that out, let's go back to @MilesTP original problem: what exactly is the part number of the battery that you are trying to install/replace in your 2011 Leaf (because I just did something similar)?
If you are replacing it with a Gen1 battery pack (24 kWh) with 2 connectors/interfaces, you need match the designation With Cold Weather Package or Without Cold Weather Package (the lizard pack that Nissan replace a few years ago was part# 295B0-3NF9E). In addition, you need to have some sort of battery ID/mating procedure performed using the Nissan Consult system.
If you are replacing it with a Gen2 battery pack (any capacity besides 24 kWh) with 3 connectors/interfaces, then you simply don't use the "heater" port. However, you must use some sort of CAN-bridge converter for this to work.
One personal note: it's a good thing that I had the lizard battery replacement, because I didn't have to go through all the mechanical bracket/holes/hardware changes required when going from the Gen1 (2011) version of the battery pack to the Gen2 (2020) battery pack I installed. Hope this helps, because mating the wrong combination can damage (even brick) the car or the battery pack.
@Stanton
thanks for the explanation man...
So here's my situation:
I have a 2011 Leaf SL NON-ColdWeather.
Its has 45k miles on it, no accidents, and the current battery is at 50% health. I did know this when I bought it. I thought I got a good deal on it and i could just easily change the battery but thats irrelevant at this point.
I brought it in to a dealer to give the official route for a replacement a whirl. It got approved by nissan but the quote the dealer gave me for the battery is kinda outrageous. And apparently for the battery itself, I can't order it directly through parts even though its listed on all the usual dealership parts stores through parts.nissanusa.com. I tried it and the dealer called me and said the battery part itself needs to be ordered by the EV tech and run by corporate. Through the parts website it much cheaper and ranges from $6885-8650 depending on the battery part# and dealership + memorial day discount.
Here's the rundown of the parts and costs.
295B0-9RB8E - Battery Assy Main - $10400 + $1000 for the core !!!!!!!
740D0-3NF1A - Bracket Assy (2) - $181.98
297C1-3NF0A - Disconnect Switch - $113.10
01125-N0111 - Bolt (4) - $15.04
748N2-3NF0A - Battery Splash Cover - $41.43
748N3-3NF0A - Battery Splash Cover - $40.60
I can order all the parts myself for self-pickup except the battery, which is much cheaper online. So I'm waiting on a response from dealer on giving me the online price i see for 295B0-9RB8E, which at my dealer is currently $7785.
Now I've seen other threads regarding battery parts 295B0-9RB9D and 295B0-9RB9E.
295B0-9RB9E seems to no longer be available.
295B0-9RB9D is available, and I found it for $6885. This is the CW-battery according to this other thread. And was cheaper, which was why I was wondering if it would fit my non-CW car.
"To all with high quotes: Try again but this time ask specifically for battery pack 295B0-9RB9E (w/o CW) or 295B0-9RB9D (w/ CW), which ever is appropriate for your Leaf."
Now this is all irrelevant if I can't order the battery myself and pick it up. But this is my dilemma.
I'm kinda bummed. It's my first EV and my first Nissan. And I would have bought new but I'm financing a Jeep and Colorado at the moment.
So.. at the mercy of dealer politics at the moment. Any words of wisdom to perk me up would be appreciated.
I'm in norcal sacramento area btw.
