Did you guys see the post where Phil explains the cause of this?

It is the SSOFF (Self Shutoff) Relay located in the relay box on the passenger side under the hood (even though from within the cabin it sounds like the sound comes from the driver side). If the VCM isn't already powered when you request the data, it is turned on via the SSOFF relay and subsequently turned back off by the VCM (i.e. "self" shutoff).QueenBee said:GlennD said:The older firmware that Sam and I have did not click.

LBW happens at 49 GIDs, VLBW at 25 GIDs and turtle around 6-8 GIDs.supra410 said:I have a quick question about my SOC. Today was my first chance to really drain my battery. I had one bar remaining,but my SOC showed about 30.1% Is this accurate? All this time I was thinking I had 10% when I actually had a bit more? Forgive me asking if this has been addressed, but would turtle hit at a specific percentage, or zero? I'm really enjoying the seemingly more precise info I'm being provided. Just trying to get a better understanding of my true range. Not what Nissan is force feeding me.

The SOC this happens will change depending on how much capacity your battery pack has. Because a GID is a fixed amount of capacity (appx 80 Ah), as your battery capacity goes down, the SOC % LBW is triggered will go up. For example, today I triggered LBW at 26.4% but a couple months ago, LBW triggered in the 24% range.
So SOC is not always that useful for trying to figure out remaining range, GIDs are much more useful in that regard since they are more predictable. The downside is that a GID seems to represent less energy in warm temperatures compared to cold temperatures.

GlennD said:I just received 3 of Barbouri's boards from OHS Park. The rotary encoder does not work. It turns out he used a different port. The encoder is connected to pins 35, 36, 37. This is PC0, PC1, PC2.
The stock port in Leafcan.h is port C. What do I change it to to make the switch work?
lincomatic said:BTW, I uploaded a fix to github this morning to fix the underflow bug on the DTE screen when the distance goes below zero.
You soldered the SMT boards yourself?
GlennD said:Lincomatic, Would you possibly have a schematic of Barbouri's unit? I emailed him but he said that he was moving and the files are not accessible.
I figured out everything except he has a diode pack or zener pack connected the the can buss. Since your design does not have this I just ignored it.

Hi Glenn,
Here is a link to Google Drive location for the files CANMonitor_v2oled03

GlennD said:Yes, since I retired I no longer have access to SMD tools so I hand soldered the boards. They are a little messy but they work.
The first one was for an OLED display since I do not have any surface mount transistors and pots yet.
This is a photo of the second one. It will be for a normal LCD display so it is waiting on parts. The SMD crystal was the hardest thing to mount.
