Ah, okay. That is clear now when said like that. Thank you. I appreciate it.

So even though I don't have an actual key, is the little white piece still up under there for me to do something with this white plastic button? It's also not clear what I'm supposed to do with the button. Or how to make the sound stop based on the post. So what am I to do exactly to make it...

Love it!

Woah, it was loud? I hope that’s not the case with mine once I get it working. So no more separate MCU?

Veeerrry nice find. That's fantasatic. Feels good I bet. :) Well done. I'll keep that fuse #13 in mind if I ever have those same symptoms.

:) First world problems...

Whoops. I closed the trunk while I have the MCU and aux battery disconnected. Now it doesn't open. Welp. I guess I could connect up the aux batt and see if it opens with that. But I hesitate to throw DTC errors unnecessarily with everything disconnected. I guess I could remove the trunk...

Oh, you said it was for the US version. Okay. That answers that. I need to read more carefully. Thanks.

Interesting. I'll take a look and see if we have them on JDM mievs. What are you pointing out about the white part in the ignition? Also, my ignition is not an old school key type, but a blank black plastic turn knob. Car has to have the key fob nearby to be able to turn the switch. Trying...

Oh, interesting details you've found. Nice. I will eventually test out the programming method in time once the car is up and running as you suggest. I expect to be able within a month I'll take a crack at it and see. Hopefully it's not that draconian and is fairly open to modification. We got...

Thanks for that. I was forgetting that difference between the different chemistry voltages. Sounds like a good reason to just stick with the NMC chemistry it was designed for originally. How do you like your CATL cells? Did they turn out to be genuine upon arrival? If so I might consider these...

You mean like this one here on this Russian site? http://mmc-manuals.ru/Mitsubishi_i-MiEV:_%D0%A0%D1%83%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B4%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%B0_%D0%BF%D0%BE_%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%BD%D1%82%D1%83_%D0%B8_%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%81%D0%BB%D1%83%D0%B6%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8E...

IT guy with mechanical nature. Just getting into electrical finally. Built a CNC last year and built the whole electrical box myself from scratch. Steep learning curve for me the first time but feel okay about most of it now. Still learning all the time though. Yeah, I saw that white ceramic...

I wanted to create a specific thread that pointed this out for new users searching for what to use for coolant. Found a good source thread here already on the site by Kiev: https://myimiev.com/threads/help-coolant-replenish-and-air-bleed.3983/post-35347 Manual says: " Recommended antifreeze...

No worries Neo5! All good. I appreciate the updated photos too. I will be replacing the IGBTs when I get the replacement unit. Thank you. It's good to know that these almost never fail for most users. Unless they really try to force it to drive when stuck from seized brakes or pulling too...

Sage and sound advice. I'll first get the car up and running by swapping the IGBTs. The family needs to see me succeed with this before possible failure from experimentation. Will do. FULL CHIP Lexia cable incoming in the next week or two. In the meantime we will get a replacement MCU or two...

Thanks. Same here. I learned about the power of search when using discord. Most people don't use it or realize it exists and end up asking the same questions over and over and over again. Not me. Search speeds up how fast I get answers and lessens the work on others. Oh. Didn't realize! I'll...

Yep. I'm raising my level starting today. Can't ever have a mistake with HV. No assumptions from here on out.

Took mine out today. Which IGBT had the black spots on yours? The middle one? If so, then the same as me. Do you know what the cause of the burn out was to the IGBT? For my car, the prior owner said she was trying to tow a 2-ton truck! OMG... She said she didn't get far like 1-3 minutes? Then...

@kiev Finally time to share the pics I'd promised of the OBDLink LX. I know you wanted to see the fasteners on this unit. Here you go. Look like the real mccoy? I couldn't find a small enough star nut wrench to open it up yet to get pics of the pcb and chips. Will do though.
