Just a couple of days short of 1 month old 2013 S with 6.6kW charger. 1379 miles on the odometer. In the morning I ran some errands - no problem. Late afternoon I took the car through an automatic car wash - came out nice and pretty. After the car wash, I drove about 20 miles. 30 min stop, car off. Then started it, business as usual and drove now 17 miles back to the house, came home with about 34% charge left, plugged it in - nothing, one beep and a couple of clicks under the hood but no blue dash lights. Won't charge - I'm still charging on 110 at the house. Nissan EVSE shows charge status - green light - ready to charge but not charging. Pressed timer off - nothing. Unplugged a couple of times and tried a different outlet - same results. Tried to start the car - it won't start, with a foot on the brake pedal it will go into neutral, but wont go into "READY". Yellow round brake warning indicator with exclamation mark stays lit when other lights come on for a few seconds and then go off. Taking my truck to work tomorrow and will call the dealer to have my Leaf towed and checked out; but I am also wondering if anyone has any ideas of what it might be. Could it be some blown fuse after a carwash? If so, what/where should I check? Keeping in mind that I drove 37 miles with one 30 min stop after the wash just fine... I checked the 12V battery and it shows 12.29V. Nothing else was abnormal on the way home. I'm bummed to "celebrate" 1 month of ownership in this manner.
