Zero (C) degrees out and 45% charge. With full accelerator pedal the turtle light comes on. Any ideas why ?

The service manager showed me the failed onboard charger. When I got home I opened the back hatch and there was the brand new one on the left side looking forward. Part number is ZHTP1529R by nichicon. I googled "wrecked I-miev" a couple of days ago and their is a complete 2012 motor package...

Drove home this afternoon after over a month.

JoeS. I have looked on eBay and a mut3 looks to be about $600 US. What exactly will the device do ? I have considered purchasing a second car but at the moment the I-miev workings are still a mystery behind the black curtain. It would be nice to fly somewhere in North America and get a 2-3 day...

I just posted in "Driving the I-Miev" . The onboard charger has been replaced and Mitsubishi will be able to do post mortem on the failed part. The other I-Miev with the exact same problem was on warranty so that tells me the sickness is not just with 2012 versions. I hope I don't jinx myself...

I am relieved that I will only have to pay about $850 cdn plus tax, of the $5600 bill tomorrow to replace the onboard charger. Car is off warranty and Mitsubishi is footing the rest. The other I-Miev at the dealership with the identical problem is still on warranty. I hope the rest of your...

So locally here in Vancouver BC, the few level 3 stations apparently cost +- $75k cdn and they take 30 minutes to insert a good amount of energy. Level 4 ?? to give you twice as much in 5 minutes seems like fantasy.

Hi Don. My I-miev is in the shop now with a suspected faulty charger. I got to looking at used I's yesterday in Canada and the cheapest with low Kilometres is $7000 in Ontario. Would an I-miev in Ont. have rust or corrosion problems as I am thinking of buying one as a spare. Where should I...

I just talked with the service manager and he says the on board charging unit has failed. I said from what I have read they are quite expensive. He said yes, about $4000.00 cdn. Waiting now to see if Mitsu Canada will give any help, as that part is off warranty.

The active fault code is P0A09

Sorry I should have been more clear. The dealership where I took my I-miev, claim they have sold 72 units. That is over a number of years and maybe it is only the 2012 models that might develop the problem.

My I is in the shop and they say they have another with the same error code. A fuse is on the way and should be installed Monday. The sales guy at the dealership says that since 2012 they have sold 72 units. It makes sense to me that some business in North America would figure out how to repair...

We made up a plug as per the link and it worked. Saturday it's New West to Whistler with hopefully one fast charge in Squamish. And if I run short, it's Honda to the rescue.

Don that is the generator I have. I just tried charging and the ready light blinks green on the charger. The manual says it has something to do with grounding as PVI stated above. The EU2000i has a ground tab on the front panel. Would running a ground cable from the generator to the car fix the...

Has anyone charged with a Honda generator in an emergency ?
