A battery cut off switch with only weak mechanical specs. No maximum number of switching operations, etc. Now, that is interesting.

Hi Cor, I'm not sure how much help you will get on a proper solution as you are kind of out there on the bleeding edge with the Leaf battery replacement thing and usually the one providing the answers :) A possible hack might be installing a battery cutoff switch for the 12 volt battery. Harbor Freight sells them for $8. https://www.harborfreight.com/battery-cutoff-switch-63425.html [https://shop.harborfreight.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/i/m/image_27328.jpg]<https://www.harborfreight.com/battery-cutoff-switch-63425.html> Battery Cutoff Switch - Harbor Freight Tools<https://www.harborfreight.com/battery-cutoff-switch-63425.html> www.harborfreight.com Amazing deals on this Battery Cut Off Switch at Harbor Freight.

OK, I did something to my Leaf that I need to get fixed, because now the Leaf is charging the 12V battery whenever the car should be asleep, as a result it is losing charge from the main pack. It started two days ago when I removed the new (warranty replacement battery) from this 2012 Leaf SL with cold weather package. I do not know why it has a cold weather package, being in California it never gets below freezing in a car so a cold weather package is quite odd, but anyhow. I installed a 2011 battery, apparently without cold weather package knowledge in the LBC. Since then, every time the car is supposed to sleep, it starts blinking the 3rd charging LED and is actually charging the 12V battery to 14.4V continuously, resulting in 1 mile range loss every hour. Anybody have a clue how to get the car to stop being confused about the cold weather package? Does the LBC need to be reprogrammed? I can modify the configuration (serial) memory of the LBC, if I know what to change. Or should I have the car's computer reprogrammed to tell it to forget about the cold weather package? I do not need it! Don't really want to pull the 12V battery contact off every time I want to park the car more than a day and the energy loss is quite a waste as well... Any Leaf experts out there? Cor. BTW, the model nrs of the new 2017 battery that I removed and the 2011 battery that I installed: 2017 battery: 295B09RB9D 2011 battery: 295B03NA0A -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
