Nissan LEAF folks have insinuated that I left my car running all day, and that's the reason my 12V battery was dead. However, I am 100% sure I did shut it down for various reasons.
So now I'm wondering. I was under the impression that if I leave the car running, it will stay online until the traction pack is depleted. Is my assumption wrong? As long as the car is on, does it not charge the 12V battery?
This is assuming I don't have a defective 12V battery which can't hold a charge, and that there isn't a problem with the charging hardware/software.
See my other thread in this subforum for details, but in short, I had ~60+ miles range left after I boosted the car's 12V battery (which reported @ 5V according to my LeafDD unit).
Thoughts?
