Sounds like a plan and at least I get to use my nice new insulated tools even if it is step into the unknown. Many thanks for the replies and advice will let you know. Assume that the cell readings look better for the 2010 unit - one mystery is that the 2011 car has 89K miles on its speedo yet...

managed to get the screen shots taken from my phone - everyday is a school day never knew you could screen shot a phone! So have managed to get the dongle to connect to both cars and get the cell values and read other data from them. The 2010 car I cannot currently charge at all but it does seem...

My 2010 earlier car does not even recognise the later "brick" being attached to the earlier 2010 car and dare not try the earlier direct lead onto the later "working" car. Even in its non functioning state the 2010 car does at least recognise the direct plug lead charger set up so something on...

yes last value it just says VIN mileage and other details does match up cannot charge the one car at all so only one shot will suffice and the other car is struggling to charge at the moment full stop too! In the wars here!

OBD zero managing to get this to connect to my phone now via the dongle but other than writing the screen data down how do I record it or access it from the phone. I have a folder for OBD on my phone but it only has a record of something in 2021 and a file of settings - cannot get it to record...

got to try again since I find it very hard to record the data from my phone but all the 88 cells are pretty flat as the car is too but they are all similar and temp about right not all over the place like the running car. I will try to get screen shots this weekend. Been some time since I have...

2010 vin full from plate is ZAA HA3W00001622

Got one and car allows me to do a bit but can only read cells not do the test since the car is immobile and nothing seems to work without the key on will look for vin too

I was expecting to find the VIN on the car on front screen but its not there and not under the front bonnet either - where else might it be please

I will look on the car soon when I can and get the full. If they are the same why does the black charger on the 2011 car not work on the 2010 car at all? If I change the pack as is over might i transfer the Lock out status that the 2010 car seems to have - think it has lost it key chip to...

2011 is JMALDHA3WBU000262 2010 car is HA3W0001622 which seems to short but is from the reg document

How do I check the VIN number - obs I can read them but how do I know they are similar One runs from a black box charger the 2011 one and the 2010 has different direct plug in charger and no box with lights on. Different front bumper and loads more tinted glass and light units etc 2011 more UK...

Have a 90K mile UK spec 2011 Imiev which struggles to charge beyond about 3/4full and range of early 30s on good day. Bought a non runner 2010 spares imiev which was running early march and had range of 50 miles and only done 28K KM not miles. Battery check icon comes on but have been able to...

I get the same issue with the charging especially when the battery is low - takes several attempts to get the thing to charge but once towards half way then the car usually continues to its full which is about three quarters in total.

That's a great starter thanks. Some really great advice there thank you and the diagram is superb.
