Hello LEAF drivers,
I have a question about the battery warmer in the Nissan Leaf. The manual says to leave the car connected to a power source if the Temp drops below -1 F. What is the best way to do this without actively charging the car? I have a 2015 LEAF S without Nav system.
So far I've been doing this by setting a short timed charge and leaving it on the trickle charger over night once it has stopped charging. Last night I did this, I checked that the car had stopped charging according to the timer, it had. This mourning I came out to the car to find it charging, with indicator lights reading 2 solid one blinking. It was my understanding that the battery warmer indicator light was the same as the 12v battery charging light; just indicator light #3 blinking, is that correct?
Can someone please help me out by offering advise on how to best leave the car connected to a power source to run he battery warmer, if necessary. And is the battery warmer indicator light light #3 blinking?
Also on another note any idea why my charging timer seemed to click back on last night? Very strange.
Thanks,
