Any logs anyone could send me from a Leaf would be great. But, I might be on to something. Byte 4 (the fifth byte if you start counting at 0) is always a constant value for a given car. It stays the same across all 0x5C0 frames, it stays the same whether driving or charging. Every vehicle I've got

I was told by the dealer that the shorting of the 12v leads is one of the approved steps/workarounds in the TCU update. Afterwards the gauges were off until one drive/charge cycle. -- -Chris On January 26, 2017 12:29:37 PM CST, Cor van de Water via EV wrote: >The Supercaps

Another thing we can try is to unplug the round control connector from the battery pack, see if the car powers up into ACC mode (since the HV battery is not accessible as the contactor coil wires also go through that connector) and once the EV bus gets quiet, plug the connector in again to see if

I have a capture from (I think it was the 2013 Leaf but I have a 2012 as well) and the capture is both buses at the same time. The "normal" can bus is a lot noisier than the EV bus. It also starts up first and has a lot of traffic before the EV bus even starts. I need to do some more filtering to

I have a Leaf (fully assembled and my daily driver) and I have two LBC's in my truck, each managing one Leaf pack and I have wired the two CAN buses to the dash, so it would be feasible to disconnect only the CAN bus of a Leaf parked next to the truck, bring the CAN bus to one of the LBCs (both at

As you could see on my list, the LBC (BMS computer) is only connected to the EV CAN bus so capturing everything on that bus should show you everything that the battery computer tells to the VCM (or to other computers *via* the VCM). Concentrate on the point where the car starts up, that is when I

The Supercaps that you mentioned are present in every car with electrically operated brakes. I know of the supercap bank in the trunk of every Prius since pretty early on (I think the "Classic" 2001-2003 does not have it, but I am certain that since 2004 it is wht allows you to apply brakes a few

10 minutes should have been enough. Chris suggested shorting the positive and negative together to drain any capacitance and force the ECUs to reset but I cannot imagine an ECU lasting 10 minutes on its input capacitors. Though, I think that the leaf actually has a super capacitor behind the rear

Bill, Thanks to you (and others) for the tips on getting rid of these batteries. The local scrap dealer will give $0.21/lb so this pack will get me over $300 just in scrap value. I don't want to deal with Craig's list buyers for the small extra amount I might get. Regards, John -- View
