Re: Chademo Leaf PDM & Zombieverter!

Thanks for the response, are you able to share with me your screenshot settings, the pdm I have is from a 2013 leaf, I'm struggling to know if it's compatible with the zombie or not... When I power the pdm with 12 volts it transmitts CAN-Bus (0*390. 0*393.and 0*678) but, the evse from the original ...

In our setup (gen 2) we are not relying on the pdm for any communication due to the zombieverter taking charge of this, so could we bypass that logicboard and wire direct to the contactor relay coils?

Current plan is to clean the axle beam properly inside out, then use an endoscope to check the inner bushings on which the scratched section of the torsion arms rides on to see how damaged they are.

Good to see Chademo working with Zombieverter, a big thank you to all involved in this.

Can't test the chademo at the moment as the system is not in the car, but just uploaded 1.11A , but could not get the AC charging working using Zombieverter and a leaf PDM, has anyone else had a similar problem?
