Hi Ted, I just did my first Openinverter compile this very afternoon. From knowing nothing to firmware loaded took less that 1 hour. I am assuming the VCU has a web interface, that allows you to upload the new firmware. If you have a Raspberry Pi, it's a doddle A very quick howto - assuming you have...

Hi Roy, After further poking about and reading Damien's code, I realised my error, years of using Torque on various cars, I had not realised that Torque was seeing canbus messages that were in response to requests sent from the car VCU, ie in most cases it just snoops on canbus activity. I have been...

Further investigation by dumping the can messages using a Hobbytronics canbus device, I do not get RPM messages. The only messages I see on the canbus are: 0x0120 0x011A 0x01D4 0x01DA 0x01DB 0x01DC 0x050B 0x055A 0x055B 0x059E 0x05BC As far as I know RPM messages are sent out at 100ms intervals, and ...

Hi I have Zombieverter v2.15 installed and attached to a Leaf inverter and EM57 motor. I am trying to connect to Torque Pro running on an Android phone via a wired OBD-2 connector and a Konnwei BT adapter. The LEDs on the adapter flicker, however I am unable to get RPM data. It seems all can message...

Thanks Marty, so it looks like I have everything pretty much correct, I am switching pin 18 manually to 12V With respect to ZV CAN pins, I have tried using both CAN1 and CAN2 is the following correct? 43 CAN1 low 44 CAN1 high for testing I have set UDCSW 0v I am still stuck at opmode 0 By ISA shunt ...

background ------------- Hi I have a leaf Gen2 motor/inverter. I am currently trying to configure the system using a bridge rectifier which delivers 330 vdc, manually switched on via 2 toggle switches. I have not yet got any form of HV volt/amps measurement, I intend to use a shunt + arduino. I cann...

thanks M I guess that would be the the 2.00A release from 7th May 2023, it's gradually becoming clear. I am months off buying a battery, so I am concentrating on getting all the low cost bits sorted, I would hate to spend a lot of effort on designing around using a PDM and zombieverter then find I h...

yes good idea

A very good start on using a full Nissan Leaf stack can be found in the following thread

Doh

found it

Hi,

is the bin file available, I cannot find one in the Git repo?

Hi Ali
thanks for the response.
Yep there are lots of topics on the Leaf PDM, and lots of rabbit holes. I eventually found a usefull thread.
..
I had already looked at the Zombieverter VCU Wiki, it says that it supports the PDM, but no further info.

Hi, A quick intro I am converting an Alvis TE21. The project is making good progress, I have a Leaf Gen 2 full stack including the control wiring and the HV loom. I have a Damian controller, I am using a Mazda MX5 gearbox, and have it mated via a Brat coupler. All good so far. --- Now its time to ge...
