HOW TO: Make the VSP (noisemaker) button default to off

[chirpyboy]

Scouring parts catalogs I found the VSP OFF switch for 2013-2017 LEAFs; figured I would post the part numbers to help others...

There are two matching ones that work (I tried both).

25172-3NF0A can be found at some US dealers, I think it's used in Mexican market cars. I bought mine here for $22 shipped

There's another part number that can be found from Japan for about $45, 25172-4NC0A. Not sure why it has a different part number... it looks the same and is compatible.

So nice to replace my crappy universal toggle switch with an OEM lighted button!

I just purchased a 2018 Leaf and went looking for how to do this. It wasn't clear at all if this thread pertained to the 2018 version. Could the OP please amend the initial post to clearly state whether or not the discussion here relates to the 2018 Leaf. Ideally, if there is another thread specifically for doing this on the 2018 model then a provided link would also be appreciated. Thanks.

If anyone is interested in a brand new harness with a custom button - PM me and I have one for a song.

Maybe someone with an ‘18 can confirm whether turning off VSP via Leaf Spy Pro still works.

It’s in the service menu of the pro version only.

I can confirm the VSP can be turned off on a 2018 SL with Leaf Spy Pro.

Yes - I can also confirm Leafspy turns it off on the 2018. It's kind of flakey (it took about 10 times before the change actually stuck) but it did work.

I turned off VSP (and the backup Beeper) on my 2016SV . Now I turned both back on, for pedestrian safety. I know some pedestrian ignore the sound. It's their choice. I personally feel more safe when cars not sneaking up behind me quietly.
