We should dubble check the pinout of Johannes board against our inverters which we drive over CAN at the moment.

Re: 2017 Outlander PHEV Lev40n (IRL)

They are only around 12kWh of capacity and 300V so you won't get any incredible range in an EV out of them ;) also are they quite big cells but the upside is that they should handle a reasonable amount of abuse.

I saw that and will try to confirm your wiring with mine when my daughter gets well from her cold ;)

Re: Nissan Leaf Powered E46 Touring

Congrats!

Looks really nice and the feeling of getting results never dies :)

I also had a drive today with the CAN-bus controlled Gen1 in my VW but I will not spam your thread with my car, only thing I can say is that 80 kW in a beetle is sufficient!

I've pulled 300A out of them peak and no problems what so ever yet. I'm charging them with 0,25C (10A) and balancing them with Tom91:s SimpBMS.

Re: EIG C20 cells (UK)

Do you mind sharing the price per cell? I guess buying more gets you a better price but just for some guideline of the price-level would be interesting.

Re: Voltswagen -64 "Leaf powered" Gen 1

Got this from Johannes yesterday and soldered it together. It's for my friends Gen2, I've also got one loose brain-board for my Gen1 laying here at home now :)

Yesterday did I manage to got hold of a spare Gen1 inverter, it should arrive next week from Norway.

Re: Voltswagen -64 "Leaf powered" Gen 1

No I'm running clutchless direct-drive ;) have the understanding that the EV-motors in general aren't designed to have axial forces applied to their rotor which is what happens with a clutch setup. Great build! Have you considered using Leaf motor with original Leaf diff and half-shafts (but then o...

Try sending these values on the first byte in message 0x11A to the inverter. The data is from your CAN-logs.

Re: Leaf Gen 1 Inverter Board

Started testing. I get 372v on 1DA when hv is applied which is correct. Think I have screwed up the resolver wiring as getting 16krpm and -24f motor temp:) Okay, then my assumption that something has broken in my inverter seems correct. I've got all the cables wired correctly so if you do it like m...

Today I tried to do this operation myself on my Gen1 inverter. I have previously tested out the Arduino and CAN-comunication with a Gen2 inverter and everything worked like expected. When I now do the same operation won't the motor turn on my Gen1, what I think might be broken on my Gen1 is the volt...

Okay, I did my best to sort out the connection pins between the two connectors, see attachment.

I've also attached the pinout of the green connector from the maintance manual.

Just an heads up now when you folks are designing adapterboards. There is a little caviat that Nissan has done with the way cables go from the outside green connector to the inside white connector (the one Johannes found on Digikey). There is not much of the cables going from one number in the green...

Is this the outside-world connector: https://www.digikey.de/product-detail/de/te-connectivity-amp-connectors/1318384-4/A141414-ND/2273491 ? 2.2mm vertical and 3mm horizontal pin spacing.

Cool, thanks :) 1. no I mean a signal that represents the high voltage level. That's over my paygrade to figure out ;) 4. Yes they are all pulled up to 5V, does that mean 5V=good?
