Have you looked at the 5 or 6 different threads on it in this forum. Your experience with the dealer sounds a lot like electronpushers http://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=4067 Are you in the same state? I'd be very reluctant to try the ECU without something firmer. Are you a member of...

These are the threads I am following on the subject http://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=684 http://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=4079 http://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4087 http://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4075...

Redcane - sounds very similar to ours. I hope its not the same issue as it is possibly expensive and time consuming to fix. It should be possible to charge from a DC fast charger should you happen to have one closer than a dealer. There is a fair bit of information spread over several threads...

According to wikipedia over 30,000 i-MiEVs have been sold. I think if there was a fundamental design fault with the charger that required more cooling, you would be seeing more reports of failures than we are. I suspect you would be very unlucky to have two fail.

Ours was replaced 2 years ago, so a 2 year old part, not sure the 5 years age thing is generally correct. If you look back in this thread there were a couple of failures in 2 year old cars too.

A few of them are from Australia where it is winter so probably not high temperature. Mine went in May, which was unusually warm this year (30 C) but still not summer temps. Australian ones charge at 240v so more than the US L1. DC fast chrging doesn:'t use the onboard charger so should not be a...

EVbatmon showed all the cells close to the same voltage. I feel like if it the 12v battery was that bad you would see an impact in some areas other than charging. If it works well enough to start and drive the car shouldn't it be good enough to allow it to charge?

I'll have a look next time I see the car, it has been at the dealer for 3 months and is still there. I have thought about getting it back to store undercover, but would be dependent on getting a dc charger to work to get it back again.

This is what the service reciept says: Carry out work as per campaign bulletin MIR9481A092 Charger, EV battery Kit 10MY 1-Miev ON BOARD CHARGER/DC-DC CONVERTER Misc :RND 1 & 2 c rounding 0.02 Actually the reciept doesn't make much sense to me, I've attached a photo of it. I think this is...

I also am having charger issues. 2010 Australian model with 50,000km. Showed a couple of odd symptoms - seemed to be less than fully charged a couple of times over a week or so, then wouldn't charge. Low voltage (battery shaped light) and high voltage (!) warning lights on dash. Car still...

I'd be happy to contribute data if I could get it to work on my car.

Parking at an Orienteering event in Western Australia, and yes, I did try to get back in the wrong one afterwards.
