    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    If you conclude that you need an OBC, there seems to be a rather expensive OBC in Norway: https://finndel.no/delinfo.aspx?f=750&dnr=23931... I think the prices approaching to the levels to consider conversion to 3 phase aftermarket chargers.

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    Not sure, I am not sure what is the sound in your video, are you shaking the connector or is it from some relays? BTW... Do you mean you can charge at home?

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    I actually wanted to remove the potting material and what you see is probably the damage from that attempt. But I also checked the resistor and to my surprise, it shows open. [It either was damaged before or maybe my knife has cut it].

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    sorry, I have been too busy in recent days... I will get back to you in the coming weeks. I understand that it is rude to drop out of the forum once the problem is fixed and you got all the free guidance.

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    yes, I see some small amount of dark material coming out of its corner (towards the copper coil). Also there is black soot on the white resistors. I did this test and I think this resistor chain is open.

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    Thanks, I think I need to remove the waffle plate to check out these resistors and also take out the failed caps. I think the LE105 (1uF Okaya capacitor) [and probably the relay next to it] is also in trouble: I also took a top photo from the whole board.

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    With the peace of mind that comes from having a repaired car, I had a look again on my board (and after reading Sjalabais' post on speakev.com) and decided that the gray material next to the OKAYA LE335 capacitor is not a glue to fix the capacitor to the board, but the electrolyte that has...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    There is a good guide with pictures here: https://www.speakev.com/threads/a-guide-to-changing-the-onboard-charger-on-the-nissan-leaf.160015/ I add that: 1. It is important to print and follow the guideline for removing the High voltage connector from the OBC. the big connector has 3 tabs (on...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    Last week I bought a second hand 296A0 3NA3A (2011 model) from ebay UK (the item was in Lithuania... but I paid VAT) and received it on Monday. I installed it the same day and now the car works and charges. I am planning to poke around the circuit board of the failed charger with a ESR meter to...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    I did not test other components, and unfortunately, after changing the D211, the charging does not work. I am thinking of sourcing a second hand or new OBC. Apparently there is not anything available in Scandinavian salvage yards, and buying brand new from USA seems to be the most economic...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    Thanks... I ordered the "D4F60" from Mouser (should arrive Monday-Wednesday, it is with FedEx now) and managed to pull out the lower board. I checked the fuses and they were OK. I wonder if I could assume that the other components are OK, or should I test some other components on the board...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    Hi nlspace, you were spot on sir! I went and took these photos of the diode, that comes at the end of my post. Now my challenges are 1. To find a and order a replacement diode for the toasted diode. 2. Figure out a way of removing the lower board from the OBC (if possible, without touching...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    I think I have confused everyone by my earlier sloppy reporting, the pilot-ground resistance also showed the similar (OL / Mega Ohm) range (similar to test on the leads of D547 diode on the board) and I equated Mega Ohm with open loop, which seems to be wrong. I read about the correct diode...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    I doubt if the V mark is not related to the internal damage, but there is a little change that it is left on the diode by my crude multimeter probes. The diode is so small that I hardly could see what I was doing there while measuring. I also add that in diode/connectivity test on my...

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    Hi.. My soldering iron is in a storage that I will visit on Tuesday. I measured the diodes in the circuit. car history: We purchased the car in 2016 with 25 000 km on ODO. [the car was sold just coming out of warranty] and it now has 47000 on ODO. The battery SOH is 78% at the moment. Never...

    Thanks for all the help and suggestions, My board (from 296A0 3NA6A) also has a second parallel diode (D552). zoomed around the suspect:

    AC charging does not work, 2012 Leaf in Sweden

    After removing the cables and (completely disconnecting the 12V) and removing the battery safety lock, I opened the cover of OBC while it was on the car (a very difficult M8 bolt is located at the bottom middle, the rest was easy, also needed security torx driver bit....). Any way, I removed...
