i-miev HV battery fault - diagnosis & HV battery removal

[Gary12345]

Hi all,
I am repairing a 14 year old i-miev, ive fixed several of these and they are great fun cars - my first EV repair was an i-miev so I have a soft spot for them but have recently started documenting repairs on youtube - if its of interest the diagnosis video is here


and part 1 of repair here


If anyone wouldnt mid subscribing it will support me keepind old EVs on the road - they are effectively not economical to repair with the time and availability of parts but I can't see fixable EVs being scrapped so I buy them to repair but really need some support to keep doing so!

Cheers

Great videos Gary, thanks for sharing and best wishes on getting those CMU boards repaired.

i like your scissor plate jacks, never seen those over here other than tiny versions in an optics laboratory.

Thanks - they are motorbike jacks rated for 450kg each so actually perfect for a miev.

Love the idea of your battery extension cable - could have done with that with my pack out the other week.
Have subscribed - like the videos

I need a green CMU09 board - don't suppose you have one available?
