    Remove GPS Tracking Chip

    As far as I know, no such thing exists in the I-MiEV without the nav head unit. As for OnStar, GM is kind enough to have it easily disabled by pulling a fuse. My Bolt still has 35 “miles” on it ;) .

    What happened this week--site was unavailable?

    Thanks for all that you do. Had us worried for a minute. Joe and myself both were trying to reach you through email, but we kept getting undeliverables. Hopefully we didn’t flood your inbox.

    i-MiEV New Owner Seeking Advice Please?

    One of us mods could change it, or if you have a title in mind, go back to the first post and edit the Subject. My car Koorz has the Mitsubishi innovative Electric Vehicle decal on the side. High quality and still look new after 8 years. I doubt that they're still available, but you might have...

    12V battery cumulative drain higher then overall charging.

    After several minutes, the dome lights turn off if a door or the hatch is left open, so that should limit drain, but then again your fix goes to the next level and cuts out all drain. The only time I experience high drain, which hasn't been noticeable with new batteries, is when I unlock the...

    i-MiEV Trailer Hitch Wanted

    I just sent an email to the other I-MiEV owner I know. Waiting to hear back. Not sure if I want to put one on Koorz or not. Bear and Photon both have them.

    12v battery keeps draining - parasitic drain?

    Kind of obvious, but the dome lights are OFF when testing current, right? They are incandescent lights from the factory. I can't remember what the cable looks like, but there should be a bunch of wires that all attach to the positive battery clamp. One of these wires comes directly from the...

    Any I Witnesses?

    Haven't seen the blue I-MiEV in town lately, although I did discover a silver I-MiEV that the owner works down the street from me. Been trying to get his attention and have him stop by on his way through.

    What Other EV's Have You Driven?

    While I haven't driven one (yet), I did see my first Model Y two days ago. Dark blue with aero wheels that drove past my work. 8-)

    2014 I-miev for sale in Fremont, CA

    You're right, Joe. Forgot about that. I believe there were 2017 US models, though only very few exist. I believe there was one on this forum that had some secret upgrades (bit more power, bigger battery, 5th seat belt).

    2014 I-miev for sale in Fremont, CA

    Yes. Any options on 2012 models that were only available from the factory (QC, cold weather, etc.) became standard equipment for 2014, 2016, and 2017 models. The only factory option became the paint color. All remaining options, like the USB port and fog lights, are dealer installable and still...

    i-MiEV Trailer Hitch Wanted

    I have pictures from my install below. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/r2q4ce5b29rut4t/AADoN2P6qKf_k5XQm7Fc3kQoa?dl=0 As for Torklift, would they make a batch if enough people are interested?

    I-Miev airbag warning light on

    Glad you were able to reset all the codes. I probably had the dealer scratching their head when my light came on a few years ago. I re-plugged both front seats thinking the connectors were loose (light came on after cleaning the car, which involves sliding the front seats around a lot). If you...

    Help with problems with the 12 v battery

    My first thought was DC-DC converter, which given that error code, may still have an issue developing. I second a constant monitor on the battery voltage while driving to make sure the converter is staying active. My one car had an issue a while back in that it didn't want to charge. Drove to...

    Used 2012 I-miev remote climate control

    Since Koorz didn't come with one (purchased used), I might be interested in it. What condition is the remote in?

    Life with Chevy Bolt EV

    So, charged my Bolt up last night, but since I didn't drive it today, I haven't unplugged it yet. The car is parked in the driveway, and with summer kicking in with full force yesterday, it's been rather hot here the last two days. As we were cleaning up from the day's activities, the Bolt...

    Anyone Looking For An IMIEV in North Carolina? SOLD

    Congrats on the purchase! Two I-MiEVs are better than one.

    Removing armrest plastic top driver side

    I don’t believe so. Fortunately, the i-MiEV door trim comes out rather easily and without clips breaking. There should be a thread detailing removing the trim.

    iMiEV is being refilled at gas station - literally

    I think their ratings assume a blanket of heat coming out from under the hood, which our cars don't have. The stock fluid when I first got the car was actually worse. It wouldn't even spray at 20 F.

    12v Battery - All You Ever Wanted To Know

    I've been keeping my fleet moving. Since my home internet is a joke, I've been bopping into town to use free Wi-Fi while sitting in the car. (Thanks, Panera Bread. Promise I'll make it up to you. ;) ) Haven't had to make many supply runs since we normally keep a few weeks' stock on hand anyway...

    Automatic Brake Lights

    My Bolt uses some formula of current speed and regen power to control the brake lights. In the 45-60 MPH range, the brake lights seem to activate with 21 kW or more of regen. The lower the speed, the threshold decreases. Down below 5 MPH, 2 kW of regen is enough to activate them, and they shut...
