Thanks :) That's what I was thinking of doing is pulling the modules out. If the value isn't worth more than $1000 or $1500 as a battery pack, I'd rather keep the modules for our own solar project.

I've decided to upgrade the 24kw battery on my 2013 Leaf. It has an SOH of just over 76% (guess-oh-meter consistently shows +/- 110km range), and I have an opportunity to upgrade to one that has over 94% SOH for about $6300 CDN with a place in Langley, BC. I can't seem to find any examples of...

Lon12: Carwings isn't all its cracked up to be (for me anyways) in my opinion. It was many times painfully slow, and I didn't work other times. I think it is better to get a Juicepro or other charger that has wifi, and if you go with public charges (chargepoint etc), they can alert you. My...

I've had the 12v battery drain issue for a few years (2013 leaf). The occurrence is unpredictable, except that it usually occurs when the car is not plugged in overnight to charge. I've done some testing as some have checking the draw on the battery when the car was turned off, and found up to...

Alozzy.. will do.. good luck with yours! If you talk to Bill there, let him know that I was able to move my leaf to the CDN portal. I had asked them to do that when they installed it, but I think Nissan support told them they couldn't (same misinformation). It would be nice if they just told...

Update (Phase II): SUCCESS Re: Moving from US Nissan Connect to CDN Nissan Connect. I called NissanConnect, and the first service rep did not want to do the move to the CDN portal. She said I would have to go to my dealer (which I knew was wrong). She actually was a bit cranky... so if she...

Update (SUCCESS) copied from our facebook site (https://www.facebook.com/groups/408848509465939/) : I went to Jonker Nissan in Surrey (19505 Langley Bypass, Surrey,) and had the 3G TCU installed about 2 hrs ago. I came home, logged into the US Nissanconnect (where it was registered to before)...

When I did my install, I never bought any harnesses, but instead just made my own out of four different color wire (I can't remember if I used #18awg or a bit smaller), and I soldered/heat shrinked the connections on both ends (fishing it through the rubber pipe from the rear hatch and along the...

Nice.. more success. I had my 2G TCU working on both the US and Canada Nissanconnect (last round was US Nissanconnect), but I am hoping when mine is done, they can connect it to the Canadian version so the email notifications work.

I had asked my local dealer this: I had ordered a TCU from the US to replace mine for my 2013 Leaf. I'm hoping it will come in this week. Manufacture Date Part number 12/1/2012 - 09/30/2015 283B0-3NF2A Can I bring it to you for the take care of the activation portion of the...

Tysoncooper... good to know.. thanks :)

Hopefully the TCU I ordered will come in this week and after the install I'll book an appt with my lower mainland Nissan dealer to see if they can do the remainder of the install. I'll update after that.

Stonymtnleaf: It may be possible for Canadian Nissan dealers to help. After asking my Nissan dealer a month or so ago about them helping me with the campaign, I rec'd an email late last week saying they may be able to do theTCU upgrade, but the part was not yet available. After all we went...

Ah ok.. Are you on the Canadian NissanConnect or US one? I may follow you in your footsteps. Update: I purchased one on Ebay... $248 includes shipping/import fees/taxes to my door in Surrey. I already had the 2G unit out on the weekend to check it, and will be able to switch it quickly. I'll...

Hey Jim, did you have any luck with getting your TCU working? or getting your hands on the PC499 documentation? Thanks
