    Chademo charging not working

    Thanks. Is there a way for me to troubleshoot the left side charging port. Any fuses or known procedures?

    Chademo charging not working

    Thanks. The AC climate fan issue is recent but the Chademo issue has been for several years now. I wonder if the charger has burned up?

    Chademo charging not working

    Mostly charging at home with 1772 but have not been able to charge with Chademo side level 3 chargers in recent years. It does not connect! Charger support has no idea why either. I know these are often broken so not sure if the problem is on my charger. How do I verify if there is problem...

    Blower not working

    So without warning blower fan for interior climate did not work one morning. The little yellow light does not work, on the button on center console where you turn it on, either. Looked all the fuses but can not find which fuse its under. All fuses under dash and under hood seemed good. Opened...

    So I bought the i-Miev.

    Found the compressor and the can of tire fixer, still has few months until out of date. It takes Philips head screws to open the cover. There is a washer that you can use instead of screw driver. Seems that there was something else there. Maybe tire wrench? Should be 21mm. Replaced the cabin...

    So I bought the i-Miev.

    1700 miles, got the 50amp plug and hooked up Level 2. Bought it on https://www.ebay.com/itm/EV-Car-Charger-Level-2-32A-240V-25-Cord-14-50-Plug-6-times-faster/112511852975?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649 But the price was about $289 when I got it with shipping and it...

    1 MONTH OWNER 2012 MIEV

    I got my Nema 50amp plug installed and was able to use the heater with the 240v 32amp Level2 I got from ebay and it was toasty in 10min. Most mornings in Oklahoma are in upper 60 this time of the year so the Level1 does fine for me, but when we hit the cold North winds I need to make sure I got...

    1 MONTH OWNER 2012 MIEV

    Great! I bought my "supersized yelly bean" not long ago too! I got little tool that I use before I plug my charger into unknown place. It tells you if its working and wired correctly. These are available in many stores...

    240V Charging and Extension cables (Amazing-E)

    Extending high amperage is dangerous and you need to make sure you have what it needs. Look for cables that have good size AWG wire and are not damaged. The longer the cable the smaller the AWG number. Most codes will give you minimum but I say get one to make sure you don't fail. Like 6 AWG...

    So I bought the i-Miev.

    First month plus I have driven 1500 miles and having fun. I charge using mostly the Mitsu 8 and 12A charger and sometimes plug in the 16A for little faster. Also purchased the 240V charger but still need to wire in the Nema 50amp plug. Hopefully next weekend. Wait weekend is tomorrow!!! Car did...

    So I bought the i-Miev.

    Oklahoma where I live has all the high and low temperatures so I bought the $178 level 2 charger. i-Miev comes with special heat remote that activates the heater before I need to start the drive.

    So I bought the i-Miev.

    Thanks for information. This is really helpful to me. Am little puzzled about the $500 kit you suggested for charging. I find Level 2 chargers on ebay for $178. What am I missing here...

    So I bought the i-Miev.

    Thanks. Does the Level1 use all the 16amp and flip the fuse? Most circuits are rated for 15amp.
