I have contacted Nissan Leaf Specialist vis CHAT, and vis Leaf Tech Support with different answers. Local Dealer doesnt seem to know much more, and Lead book is kinda vague.
My electric plan had ON Peak & OFF Peak rates.
OFF Peak STARTS at 7pm and ENDS at 12:00 noon. M-F. So, ON Peak is 12:noon - 7pm M-F
Sat & Sun is OFF Peak all day
So, here is what I am trying to accomplish with the timers:
Set Timer 1 - START - 7:10pm END - 11:50am. M,T,W,Th,F Sat & Sun NOT Selected
I am assuming that the car will charge immediately any time I plug it in between the hours of 7pm and 12 noon and STOP charging at 12 noon.
And that it will NOT charge if I plug it in between 12noon - 7pm - and will start charging at 7pm automatically
1) I would expect it to start charging immediately when plugged in any time between 7pm - 12noon M-F, and then stop charging at 12 noon
PROBLEM: When I plug in at 10 am (or any other time before 12 noon) the blue lights flash telling me its waiting for a timer (no charge)
2) I would expect it to start charging immediately when plugged in any time on SAT or SUN.
PROBLEM: I plug it in anytime Sat or Sun and the blue lights flash telling me its waiting for a timer (no charge)
Am I not understanding something?
The book says (p CH-22) If OFF is selected for a day of the week, the timer will not operate on that day and will wait for next timer. What does that mean?... It WILL charge because there is no timer set for that day (Sat/Sun) OR, it will NOT charge because there is no timer set for those days (Sat/Sun)
Am I missing something?
