Eleafgrrl, Did you check 12V battery or reset the 12V battery?
Eleafgrrl said:EdmondLeaf: Thanks for the suggestion as the tow guy was clueless. I got the "I don't hear it runnin' " comment after he hooked up the jumper cables.. he jumped it and that got it fired up to at least get it out of the garage and onto the tow truck. I have a "visit dealer" message on dash. It is on its way to the dealership now. Thanks again, will keep ya posted on how it turns out.
If I had a buck for each time I went into Nissan Service because of the "visit dealer" yellow message, I could have a spare traction pack by now. The dealer tells me (each time) ummm ... nope ... nothin' showin' on my wiggy ... better bring it back in when it stays on (because it goes off after a restart, usually). So I come back with the "visit dealer" msg blazing. They still can't figure it out. so they turn the car off ... turn it back on and tell me, "seems ok now".Eleafgrrl said:EdmondLeaf: Thanks for the suggestion as the tow guy was clueless.

Jill,
Isn't this the second time the car has had to go to the dealer for something or other? Sucks for you!!
Fingers crossed, touch wood, I'm at 12,500 trouble free miles (excepting the damn deer).
Hope they turn it round quickly.

JPWhite said:Eleafgrrl said:Leaf died, waiting for tow truck to take it to dealer. Tuesday, my hubs had the Leaf (of course) at work hooked up to the BLink charger, hit the climate control on button on phone, got in some time later and took off for home. He got about 200 yards and the car died, he was able to restart it but when he did the EV system warning light (the yellow car with exclamation point) came on. He made it home and when he plugged it in, there was no response from the car, never started charging. It had 59 miles on the GOM so I figured we would take it in to the dealer. I made an appointment for this morning and it is totally dead, not recognizing a key, nothing happens when we got in, tried both key fobs just in case but still nothing, it is DEAD. No lights, no sound nada! Uh oh. Will keep you posted on what happened. Should be fun getting it out of the garage...
Yes please keep us posted. Sorry to hear it gave up the ghost. Don't forget the free roadside assitance, Nissan should tow it for free. How many miles do you have on it now?

JP- the roadside assistance was utilized, although I called at 10:30 am and it was after 1pm before he arrived (another day shot to hell, waiting) and he called for directions...but it was free so I guess I should be happy...
I just rolled over 10K miles.

Anyone have any recent experience to report?

.... And two weeks later, still no sign of a single QC in TN. The L2 chargers sitting next to them show up on the map, so how hard could it possibly be to have the map show the QC when it is working? By the time they get the map right the QCs will be broken again. :roll:rslatkin said:Blink has an update about the quick chargers in Tennessee:

Well - you could always use the 'plugshare dot com' web site, and put in a 'I-was-there' note - write whether or not it was running. If folks do that, it'd serve subsequent users as a way to know the likelyhood of availability, at least until Blink gets their act together (if ever).nogajim said:....

<snipped conversation with JPWhite>
I hope all is well, and you have your car back already, Jill! I hate to hear you had another problem with it. Please keep us updated.
Cheers, Bert
