    iCarsoft i909 Diagnostic Tool

    I've purchased an i909 and read some trouble codes from my i-miev (currently under repair). Has anyone had success clearing trouble codes? The i909 says it has successfully cleared the codes, but then they are still shown as "stored"?

    my Miev will not charge

    Once realising the service plug was still disconnected, we were hoping reconnecting it would allow the car to go ready. Obviously we didn't expect it to function with the service plug disconnected. My concern was subsequent to replacing there would be a non self clearing DTC set, but I'm not...

    We waitied two weeks with the service plug disconnected last time ;) The temporary fuse still has continuity, in fact without the contactors closing it hasn't even seen voltage. We tried disconnecting the OBC comms connector (E-02?), however the car still wouldn't go into ready. I guess with...

    Just a note, from what I've seen of the service manual, there is no mention of the fuse - the troubleshooting flow chart suggests replacement of the EV-ECU and charger/DC-DC after checking the wiring harnesses and relays. It seems like quite an oversight in the troubleshooting process.

    New information on my imiev. Now it won't go into "ready" mode. We reassembled everything after replacing snubber caps in the OBC. Put in temporary fuse. No charging. Decided to sleep on it. This morning after checking things and trying to start the car realised we had disconnected the service...

    my Miev will not charge

    I checked that specific resistor and I've had a good look for any other visually apparent problems. I guess I'll recheck everything today. Unfortunately I'm on the east coast, WA is virtually a different country. The trouble codes didn't seem very specific, and the dealer charged $395 for them...

    my Miev will not charge

    Replaced the burnt out capacitors, put in a temporary fuse. Reassembled and put OBCi in car. Atilly have error lights. I assume something hasn't been put together properly as others have reported the error lights gone as soon as everything was back together. The alternative theory was that the...

    MikeDufty, Have you had any progress getting the replacement part shipped in? Having confirmed our charger unit is not actually that old, I'm going to follow this up a bit further with the dealer and Mitsubishi Australia. Failing that I intend to lodge a complaint with NSW Fair Trading. Whilst...

    Eliminating Mitsu's Onboard Charger/DC-DC Converter

    Great stuff! Good to see it got you back on the road. I can understand the motivation to find a solution - I'm really keen to get our miev going again as I love driving it. I'm a little less keen on paying an exorbitant amount for a replacement charger when the previous one lasted less than 2...

    The Troubleshooting and Repair for On-board Charger (OBC) Thread

    An update on failure #14 - our charger was replaced as a recall in January 2017, so it's been in service less than 2 years. It's dated 2015 manufacture.

    To me it's more indicative of a principle of exercising power over your customers. Even in the case the dealer can rewrite it, you are still at their mercy to do so. Acting as some kind of a "gatekeeper" seems to only benefit the manufacturer and inconvenience the consumer. It's treating your...

    They have given me a copy of the steps with their notes on results. I haven't looked at it in detail as yet, but it seems well documented enough that I trust they've done it. I'll still verify what I can before it goes back to them. Yes, I'll look for anything obvious. Things on my list are the...

    my Miev will not charge

    I've been trawling through this forum. I've read enough to know it's possible opening up a few parts and looking for scorch marks might save me from buying a new part. I hadn't read electronpushers thread yet. I'm in northern NSW. 100% agreed I'd like some more confidence of which part has...

    my Miev will not charge

    In somewhat good news, I had enough charge to get to the dealer without getting stranded. The dealer has pulled some trouble codes (including a "P0A09"). I'll talk to them tomorrow to get more details. They are up to $395 worth of diagnostics fees as it is, and the next step is to order an...

    my Miev will not charge

    Interesting - I've seen a less than full charge on maybe 3-4 occasions with our 2010 AU model with 64,000km. However I started poking around because tonight the car decided to stop charging at 3 bars below half full. Unplugging it and plugging it back in gives a fan, and the charger light...
