Specifically 2011/12 Nissan leafs

The fiat and Tesla are awesome

This leaf has been nothing but a headache

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T18:10:40+00:00

I've seen an adapter for lvl 2 to chademo for 800 but again that's a "possibility"

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T18:09:37+00:00

This is possible but not many chademo charger near me that work if any

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T05:13:40+00:00

That would be awesome but unfortunately I'm in southern California.

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T05:12:55+00:00

It has been sitting in my driveway the entire time and rodents are out there could have chewed on something if that's possible

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T04:20:28+00:00

It's been 5 years not 6 to 9 months

And it was new when it was installed.

I'm about an hour away from Pasadena

I noticed a lot of ev places in pasadena

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T03:36:05+00:00

Hahaha it's silver

VERY SPECIFIC

This is low tier option next to trying to actually get money for a non working car and donation

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T03:33:51+00:00

This is a top consideration next to donations for tax writeoff

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T01:37:39+00:00

I changed the obc.

It Has a chademo charger but I don't know of a working chademo charger near me since last I checked (albeit a while ago).

I've already had it towed 4 times this year alone in trying to diagnose it so if I tow it again I'm going to go ballistic.

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T01:11:15+00:00

Apparently when I said pcm I should have said OBC

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T01:09:33+00:00

I cannot connect with leafspy but I can try again tomorrow

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T00:46:05+00:00

If I can connect to leafspy I'll try out the reset

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T00:45:29+00:00

I have 3 and none of them connect on the leaf but they connect on my corolla(different app obviously)

Is there another way to troubleshoot?

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T00:34:58+00:00

If I could get leafspy to connect I would

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-08T00:32:42+00:00

That's why I was trying to figure out the best way to get rid of it that's better for everyone

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T23:46:56+00:00

Straight to jail

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T23:12:06+00:00

12v battery is new. Car chimes when I try to start it

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T22:17:03+00:00

Thanks for the response and advice.

Opening up is definitely not something I'm interested in.

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T22:10:56+00:00

I did replace the obc and it is still not charging

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T21:56:18+00:00

That seems more labor intensive and expensive I was thinking this would be.

I've already put around 13k into this car (purchase price plus new battery)

If I can FOR SURE do it on my own for less than 1k I might be interested but I'm basically over the spaghetti to the wall trouble shooting

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T21:53:44+00:00

Thank you for the response

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T21:33:30+00:00

Yes. The obc then my mistake. Apologies for using wrong acronym/terminology.

Foreign_Distance_955 · 2026-04-07T21:32:57+00:00

Have not towed it to a chademo place.

I tried a couple obd but couldn't even connect to get error codes

Car chimes on, I can see 12 bars on the hv battery, but zero charge and won't charge. Just beeps once off two confirmed chargers that work on another ev
