So for some reason with this new version the startup sequence of the car has become unreliable. Maybe 30% or 40% when I turn on the ignition I get positive contactor enabled but the throttle does not work. It may be something in my startup sequence but as it took me weeks to figure out a reliable st...

That's what I would expect. The ISA shunt data is sent to Serial2 which is the wifi interface. To view it on the terminal you to need to change Serial2 to Serial, or you could copy the code so it sends to both. Thanks mate, I'll give that a try tomorrow and report back. I was hoping there would be ...

So I tried this code exactly as you sent it and although it enables the serial outputs from the Inverter and lets me drive I don't see anything from the shunt. I only get Motor temp, Inverter temp and rpm on the display. This is what I see in the serial monitor Untitled.png Could it be a library ver...

I have tested with your exact code with the } fixed and it all works. I am only sending messages to Can0 and don't have wifi so all readings are going to Serial ( I am using Arduino Due so just looking with serial monitor in IDE ). I thought it might be a timing problem as CheckCAN is polled in loo...

Sorry mate, I've been messing about trying different things but I still only get Inverter CAN with this code. The ISA Shunt is not giving any output unless I put the sensor.begin line back in. Would it help If I got some CAN logs? If so is there a sequence you would suggest? CAN0 and CAN1? Sorry to ...

Thanks mate, I'll give it another go.

It didn't work. :( I don't get anything from the ISA Shunt if I comment out the sensor.begin line and if I put it back in I get nothing on the display from the inverter. The thing that confuses me is that with the sensor.begin line on place the VCU is still controlling the inverter and allowing me t...

Awe mate thank you! I'll get this tested later this morning and let you know how it goes.

So after a lot of messing about I'm no further on.
With the line below in place I get voltage, current and power from the ISA shunt but the Inverter CAN is blocked.
Sensor.begin(port,datarate);

If I try setting filters to 'false' it either stops everything or makes no difference.

Thank you for this, I'm pretty sure at some stage I tried using Can0 instead but couldn't figure out the correct syntax.
It is no longer giving an error so I'll pop down to the car and see what it does for my display.

Sorry I though I had already thanked you for this but checking back I hadn't I tried this line of code but still having issues. Seting up the ISA shunt sets a filter on can0 that blocks the inverter can ids. Adding the line in bold after Sensor.begin may fix it. Sensor.begin(port,datarate); port->se...

OK so I figured out I can get the VCU to turn on the inverter with this code by checking for the voltage from the shunt rather than the inverter so that bit is working but the motor temp, inverter temp and motor rpm no longer show in the display and the dash so the line of code I mentioned above see...

Here is a question for those of you familiar with the IVT shunt and better at coding than me. I've had my car driving for a few months but have only gotten around to working on the shunt now. Version 1.5 of the Leaf code includes the ISA shunt but as standard it does not work, as in it does not show...

[rant] last time my new leather gloves fell apart I knew something was off, I could have sworn I just bought them, so this time, I wrote the Born On Date on the new pair and check this out, they fell apart only one week later, or am I just working too hard and they can't keep up with my Chuck Norri...

you mean as in you told your boss you will move that server to another rack over the weekend outside of production hours but that was before you realized Pete's bachelor party was that Friday and the boys did actually rent an RV [and Vegas is indeed only 10 hours away] and now it's Monday morning a...

I HATE those slide on cage nuts. Hello ladies and gentlemen, we'd like to design a device that combines the frailty of sheet metal with the frustrations of loose hardware, we introduce... slide on cage nuts. They'll be just like captive nuts, but they'll break and strip all the goddamn time and the...

Just in case anyone out there is using a Leaf Gen1 VCU and would like to use the online Arduino IDE to make adjustments or updates I figured out today how to upload the libraries to the cloud. Several of them did not have a library.properties file so they would not upload. I added the file to each l...

Looking good
Would it be easier to put a cage around the back of the car in the boot or behind the rear bumper to strengthen it rather than compromising the battery position?

well this really urks the Greg, apparently the Prius transaxle butt ie it's differential is offset to the passenger side, so by putting the transaxle in the middle of the motor bay, now the driver side drive axle (pictured on top) is longer than the passenger side Can the Greg ignore this or will h...

My dc to dc works fine up to 400V. I don't usually charge that high as I still haven't sorted the BMS but the charger was fine with it.

I had the same issue with a gen 1 leaf motor. Put a load on it and it will be fine. I found with the transmission bolted on it was just enough load.

A bead roller? Pffft. Man I thought you were one of us. That was a job for a ball peen and a 2x4 with a groove cut into it. Go back to your ivory tower with the other professors and chortle about caviar prices and crystal sculptures. Likewise I was expecting a grooved 2x4 and an M12 bolt with the h...

I've done about 20 miles in the car today without any issues inverter temp is about 20 deg C but spikes quite rapidly during acceleration but hasn't peaked over about 33 yet and motor has reached a massive 35 deg C :lol: and I've been driving quite hard within the local speed limits (max 50) :) I s...

Maybe this might help.

This is a copy and paste from the Outlander heater thread. Here is a quick update of the heater situation now I have it installed. It works! :D The longer version includes a minor disaster and a change in design. While testing I managed to drop some solder on the board while it was running. This cau...
