    Luxury Leaf with maple dashboard FOR SALE (SF Bay Area)

    As mentioned in my original description under Safety, this car includes a black fleece cover on the dashboard for better visibility through windshield; The original dashboard (as with many cars) reflects in the windshield, especially when sun is shining directly on it. I found that black fleece...

    Luxury Leaf with maple dashboard FOR SALE (SF Bay Area)

    It is traditional for luxury vehicles (and private jets) to have wood paneling installed, such as maple, walnut burl or other hardwoods. This is an expensive aftermarket kit designed for the Leaf, professionally installed (and not covering up any damage -- it was installed when the car was brand...

    Current draw when off?

    Thanks, Gerry, that was very helpful. I have now let the car sit all off, locked and unplugged, for 20 minutes with the ammeter in place and observed only 20-30mA draw so all is good now that I have a new 12V battery. I too have left it at the airport for nearly a month over the years, and...

    Current draw when off?

    I measured the current for about a minute after the battery was reconnected through the multimeter, and the 500mA draw persisted after an initial couple amps that lasted a couple seconds. So perhaps I need to keep it connected for a while longer to see if the car goes into some sleep mode. Have...

    Current draw when off?

    My accessory battery recently went dead after not driving the leaf for a couple weeks. It is a 2012, so it is probably time for a new battery. But it got me wondering: WHAT DRAWS CURRENT WHILE THE CAR IS COMPLETELY OFF? HOW MUCH CURRENT SHOULD I EXPECT TO BE DRAWN FROM THE ACCESSORY BATTERY...

    Tires: Ecopia EP422 vs. Ecopia EP422 PLUS?

    I just got a set of Ecopia EP422s, expecting to have EP422 PLUSs installed. I called Campbell Nissan in Edmonds, WA several days ahead of time before my appointment to ensure they had the PLUSs in stock, and they assured me they did and that is the one they install on Leafs. But at the end of...

    Anti-theft device options not necessary on Leaf?

    What is the latest on tracking a stolen Leaf (however unlikely that may be)? My insurance offers a discount if this is possible, and I would need to supply them some sort of proof. Have any of you done this? The discussions I found on this forum about such things were over a year old. Thanks, Steve

    Wiring for towing the leaf on a dolly?

    Great, thanks RonDawg for that helpful information. I got a wireless camera already to keep an eye on the trailer and surrounding cars while driving. We will take our time and drive the speed limit. -Steve

    Wiring for towing the leaf on a dolly?

    Great, I did not know that the dolly (for just lifting the front wheels) has its own lighting. Using just that would certainly be the simplest, assuming it is full-function (brakes, turns, and taillights at night). Do any more of you have experience with a U-Haul tow dolly pulling a Leaf? I...

    Wiring for towing the leaf on a dolly?

    I have looked at the posts on towing the leaf on a dolly, and did not see any details about how to rig up the wiring so the brake lights and turn indicators can be used to signal what the towing truck is doing. Is this possible? :?: I have never towed any car before and am about to take my...

    H&R Block refused to help me get EVSE tax credit

    Update from the one who started this thread: My H&R tax guy called me today to say that he was mistaken and WILL fill the 8911 and get me the EVSE installation credit. Thanks to you all for your explanations. It seems I did not have to use them on him. I would not choose this guy again...He was...

    H&R Block refused to help me get EVSE tax credit

    Can someone who has succeeded in getting the 30% tax credit for a home EVSE installation explain exactly what form they used? I was told by AFDC to use form 8911. Yet it says "do not file this form unless you are claiming a credit on line 9" and line 9 is about the Business/Investment Use Part...
