    Battery pack change plans

    VIN must be 17 digits therefore its still short, but you should be able to get the correct one via an app, but regardless, the way forward is to remove both packs and check the data connectors on the side, if they match, try a complete pack swap first. Otherwise open the packs (beware: High...

    Battery pack change plans

    So what do the cells look like on the 2010 car, does it give you a SoH?

    Battery pack change plans

    Might want to invest in an OBD dongle to read out DTCs/ battery data… Check out https://obdzero.dk/ for manual and compatible dongles.

    Battery pack change plans

    Yes, 2010 VIN isn't complete, but the important bits are there, IIRC HA3W is the build model and they seem to match...

    Main Traction Battery Upgrade i-MiEV

    According to the service manual U1116 & U1111 can be ignored?? Agreed, a cell voltage below 2.75V will shut down the car immediately, IIRC OBDZero logs data every couple of seconds, therefore easy to miss a 'blip'. Might help to read the DTCs immediately when this happens again...

    Interesting, might put them into a VIN decoder or post them here to see what exact build they are…

    New to the iMiev with a 2012 model

    Not to discourage you but most owners who started changing individual cells realised soon that this was only a quick fix as due to severe degradation more and more cells keep going bad.. It is unfortunate that in most EVs the entire pack’s performance is determined by the worst cell..

    New to the iMiev with a 2012 model

    Hello and welcome to the forum It may well be possible that the 25.9Ah capacity can be improved by running a battery calibration in HobDrive given the car wasn’t used regularly the past year. It looks like you a have at least one weak cell in your battery if you experience the tortoise and...

    Imiev battery type

    IIRC, there was a similar case, turned out that one cell dropped briefly below 3V during charge process when on a low SoC, didn’t do that once the pack was above a certain level..

    Battery pack change plans

    Hello I’d say both are 1st Gen cars and therefore you should be able to do a straight battery pack swap. To be sure compare the VIN numbers of both cars. OBDZero is a great app for diagnostic, but it cannot read or reset DTCs, use CarScanner/Hobdrive for that purpose. No need for a dealer...

    P0C73 Coolant Pump Error

    Well done on the repair and sharing your experience. Not sure if adding a ‘Booster’ is going to make a significant difference , IIRC someone mentioned that the ‘cold’ transfer isn’t very effective to start with, pumping the coolant around faster will make little difference. That said, it...

    [Battery Warranty] A potential nightmare that turned out ok

    Mitsu techs are not allowed to open the battery pack therefore won’t troubleshoot anything inside it… As mentioned before @coulomb is correct the issue is most likely outside the pack, AC compressor is a primary suspect…
