I just swapped out the Onboard Charger (OBC) and am wondering about replacing the coolant that I drained. There a 2 lines that were disconnected for draining the coolant, and one capped line. I think the coolant is added to a reservoir on the right front, looking at the car. It is empty. But not...

Twice, I have had a Duosita Level 2 EVSE stop working. The problem is that the signal wire near the nozzel breaks due to repeated strains. The solution is to cut the cable and rewire, cutting out the bad section. Pain in the touche. Proceedure is to cut the cable and ohm out the cable between...

The initial question was about Level 1 charging thru a 2500 watt pure sine wave inverter, operating off of 24 volts. I did short ground and neutral together, and it worked. Did not charge for long because the battery wire gauge was too small for 62 amps. But it worked. Yea! This was an inverter...

This is good information. Let me deconstruct it. Everyone understands that a 240 volt service is 2 each of a 120 volt sine wave that are phased 180 degrees apart. Are you saying that the voltage from a 120 volt recepticle on the pure sine wave inverter is kinda the same. That is, it is 2 sine...

My goal is to be able to charge the Leaf from a solar charged battery pack thru an off grid inverter. Hope I do not let the smoke out if I connect ground and Neutral.

The Level 1 charger will not work if a 110 Vac plug is ungrounded. Makes sense. I tried to charge my Leaf with a 2500 watt solar inverter. It did not work for the same reason (No electrical connection to ground.) Since the electrical service (that works at Level 1) has the neutral and ground...
