Hey Guys,
i noticed this the last couple of times i drove my Leaf, but when i start with a full charge, then even in B mode it never actually goes to B mode once a little bit of battery wears off to allow more regen. i can switch between D and B and there is no regen difference at say 40 mph (while usually there should be a large difference). power cycling the car seems to fix this , but i was wondering if anyone else has noticed this?
cheers,
Marko
edit: bringing more info to the first post. First, this happens at various SOC levels, it is normal for the car to not regen during high SOC, but this happens even at 30% SOC, when regen should function fully. i also once noticed that even though the B mode functioned correctly, the brake pedal regen did't work (pressing the brake didnt increase regen). All these symptoms are intermittent and happen once or twice during a long drive, so not very easy to reproduce. One more symptom to the list is that cruise control disengages on its own, randomly, has happened 3 times in the last week where i use it maybe once per day when traffic allows. The battery voltage at rest is 12.6V so unlikely that the aux battery is going bad.
here are the latest errors:
