    OBC preventative maintenance ?

    It's a 2011 UK. The inside of the OBC lid is free of blackening. The big caps aren't bulging. The little back caps aren't split. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TtjhvvN6fUiHP_6KHmNzSd8tpqYKU_1v/view?usp=sharing...

    OBC preventative maintenance ?

    Are there any components on the OBC that could be (easily) replaced before faults occur and/or would prevent faults occurring ? For example, in Meade computer-controlled amateur telescopes there are 20V Tantalum capacitors on the 12V powered boards that blow after about 20 years of use...

    Permanently turning off Traction Control

    Okay, ignore the glovebox reference. Two screws and pull.

    Permanently turning off Traction Control

    The fuse for the ASC system powers other devices. So the simplest fix is to pull the connector off the back of the ASC switch. It's in the lower panel that is held by two screws at the very bottom,. Then a sharp tug with the glovebox open will pull the panel off.

    Need to touch-up the kerb rash.

    Supplemental cooling for the charger.

    Sorry to hear about Aerowhatt. My search through the wiring diagrams reveals: That plug E-03, on the rear face of the DC-DC converter, carries constant 12V from the Relay Box on pin 7. And switched 12V from the On Board Charger Relay on pin 2.

    RHD drivers seat heating always on

    Found a blank on the UK mitzybitz,com site to fill the hole. It was part 73034 for the PAJERO SHOGUN V26W MK2 2.8T, but it fitted.. I searched for a new switch, but almost all that was available were switches engraved "HI LO". Or a Hyundai Galloper switch that might fit, for £103 !!

    Permanently turning off Traction Control

    I didn't know the I-MIEV has a Traction Control switch, perhaps the US version has this ? There is an ASC (Active Stability Control) switch. ASC handles the ABS anti-lock braking, stability control, and traction control. So do you want to permanently disable all of those, or just the traction...

    RHD drivers seat heating always on

    Okay, once I had found the correct switch everything fell into place. The led doesn't work on the switch, so I was fooled by the unusual switch action - Up for ON , Down for OFF. European/USA switch logic ? I took the opportunity to move the switch to the spare position next to the "Passenger...

    Supplemental cooling for the charger.

    Does anyone have the image that Aerowhatt linked to in his post Aug 3 2018 at the bottom of page 5 ? https://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4099&start=40 I've not been able to download it. I've PM'd him but he's not posted since 2020. And does anyone have details of where to pick up 12V...

    CHADEMO stops at 66% ?

    The OBDLink dongle, ordered last night, arrived this morning. Boy that's a really fast service ! Battery volts range is 4V to 3.995V - seems unusually good for an old car ? Capacity % is not one of the readings ? Michael

    CHADEMO stops at 66% ?

    Wow! The approved Scantool OBDLink LX costs £84 from Gendan Automotive ! The 20 quid V-Gate iCar Pro works on PHEV WatchDog for my Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.

    RHD drivers seat heating always on

    Thanks Mickey The position you describe as the passenger switch location is where this strange switch is located. I have now discovered the driver's switch, right where you said. The led doesn't light up when that switch is toggled on. There's only two plugs and wires under the passenger...

    CHADEMO stops at 66% ?

    Thanks Mickey. Yes the car reached 100% / 55 miles on my home AC Rolec "charger". I've got CanIon on my Android tablet, says it's connected to the iCar Pro dongle, but I get no data ? Though I see that dongle is not on the Approved list. Michael

    RHD drivers seat heating always on

    I have just bought a 2012 i-MIEV, UK RHD. The driver's seat heater is permanently ON. I can't find a User Manual or Service Manual that shows the kind of switch mine has. It has a round push button. It doesn't have a plug behind it, instead the two wires on the switch (red and black) head...

    CHADEMO stops at 66% ?

    I have just bought a 2012 i-MIEV. My first CHADEMO charge from 30% stopped at 66%. I removed and re-inserted the plug and started a new charge, but it only ramped up to a very low charge rate, so I gave up. I thought it would go to at least 80% ? Could this be due to charger temperature ...
