I’m very keen to learn, and I’ve done a lot of mechanical work over the years, and a fair bit of soldering. Just analogue stuff rather than digital. I’ll stop bothering you guys and just keep reading, I know most info is already out there. Thanks for your input.

Thanks for the help. I’m going to try and build a board now,and have uploaded all the files to pcbway. They are saying they want the inner layer copper thickness and can’t find it? I didn’t know it was a 4 layer board, but looks like it is. Anyone know where to find that number, or one that’ll work ...

Ok, thanks for letting me know, wasn’t aware of any of those options. The REV looks good, but more expensive than the zombie. I’ll do more research on the zombie verter I think, looks like the best option. It’ll run all the leaf stuff won’t it? Including charging and regen etc.
Cheers

Yeah ok, kinda what I’m thinking now. I’m building a car for a mate, and she’s cool with buying a vcu. It’s a 2012, so 1st gen. Do resolve make one for 1st gens? I’ve been watching a lot of Damien’s stuff, and the zombie seems good. I don’t really know much at all though.

Thanks for the reply. The problem is I cut out the wires that went to the handbrake system. Like completely got rid of them. Not just cut off one connector.
I guess I’m cooked now, I’ll have to get a zombieverter or something. Have manga people done it without a vcu? It won’t properly recognise the ...

G’day people, I’m new to this world of ev conversions, and I’m trying to power up a leaf harness out of the car using stock components only. No resolve vcu etc. I stripped some of the wires I thought I didn’t need off the body harness yesterday, including the handbrake wiring. Now when I power it on ...
