    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    Also I did a reverse language search in Japanese and found someone else indicating their PTC heater had failed in Japan. https://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q10198472765 (You'll probably have to have your browser translate from Japanese to English).

    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    I don't know if anyone else found this post, but I thought it was quite interesting. I don't have a picture of our 2013 PTC heaters to confirm if this is what they look like or not: https://ev-olution.yolasite.com/Nissan-Leaf-Heater-Fault.php

    And so far there hasn't been a word from Nissan on the heater issue :/

    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    Yeah, was a tin foil hat moment. But I wouldn't put it past the company to look at it in dollars and cents: Most people using them aren't in cold climates, and only on the SV/SL so it's not like its 'affecting' most people. Admitting there was a fault by creating a service campaign could open a...

    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    13 SV and SL have a hybrid heating system, while the S I believe is solely the PTC. From what I'm understanding from some of the posts, putting in a new PTC heater didn't necessarily fix the problem. It could be that the coolant temperature sensor is faulty and the switch between the two heating...

    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    I don't want to clutter the thread with too many posts, but based on some of the solutions, they suggested replacing the coolant temperature sensor and / or the wiring harness to the PTC heater. I'll update this post with some of the information I found, as I am going to try and solve this...

    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    It was through Vickar Nissan here in Winnipeg. I bought a 12v plug in PTC heater and it was sketchy in our -35C. Seat heater and heated steering wheel helped. I simply don't have the money to pay it, and even if I did, that's engine replacement money for an ICE vehicle, so I'm kinda on...

    has your Leaf's PTC heater failed? reply here

    I'll add mine to the list. 2013 Nissan Leaf SL, originally a US Leaf. Failed sometime in November, 2018 at around 51,000km (~31,700miles) also in Winnipeg, MB, Canada as someone on your Reddit thread indicated as well. Dealership said B2773 and B2774 codes and NTB14-001C required PTC Heater...

    So this is what the service log says: Car works. This did not fix my heater problem.

    And if anyone's interested, I have a set of SSR Type F's that I still haven't sold from 3 years ago that match the stock 16" wheel specs: https://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?t=22027

    2013 Nissan Leaf - won't start

    Yeah, that's why I wanted to post everything was so that if someone else had an issue, they could learn from it. My big question is still what IS the main cause? How did it get corroded? Is it related to the battery plate recall where corrosion could be introduced? Where was the actual...

    2013 Nissan Leaf - won't start

    OK quick update - tomorrow I will go to pick up the car. They say they've fixed the problem (and have said the bill will be an additional $359 CAD on top of the $180 I spent originally, and also did the battery bonding plate recall. I'll get the full service log when I go there, but I wanted to...

    Recommended replacement tire

    I'll just throw in my 0.02. I had to brake hard because a box truck turned into my lane without looking. If I could have stopped 3 feet sooner, he probably wouldn't have hit my Leaf. I have had experience with summer and performance tires, and I think that 'low rolling resistance' tires do have...

    And Nissan Canada and North America's computer systems are down. No ETA for being fixed. Uggggh. Sorry needed to vent.

    2013 Nissan Leaf - won't start

    Service manager still doesn't want to even commit to saying it's a warranty issue. Given the other battery-pack related issues people have had on the forum, and how many dealerships will just deal with it right away, I feel like feet are being dragged unnecessarily. Also now that there is the...

    Does anyone have a technical diagram of where these plates are and what they do? Just for reference.

    2013 Nissan Leaf - won't start

    I'm pretty sure I've tried this combination like 4 times already. I don't have the money to pay someone professionally to diagnose this at the moment, so the car is sitting for a while. But a small update: I had the dealership call to take a survey about my service. I didn't rate them well. I...

    2013 Nissan Leaf - won't start

    Yes, thanks Lothsahn for your post. Before work today I tried cleaning the main ground near the battery - sanding the area where the bolt meets the body, sanding the lip under the bolt head, and both surfaces of the tab that connects to the ground wire. Unless there is a ton of corrosion inside...

    Yes. That's what I've done several times. The four I listed before (and below) are the ones that persist... C118C 0109 ABS EV/HEV System BRC-126 C1A6E 0109 Brake EV/HEV System BR-146 C1A70 0109 BRAKE Brake control system BR-160 P31E1 000B EV/HEV HV System Interlock Error EVC-305
