    32A OpenEVSE for sale

    I listed an OpenEVSE for sale on the Mercedes B forum. This will work with any J1772 compliant car like the RAV4EV. http://www.mybclasselectricdrive.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1084&p=6415#p6415

    Navigation Screen is Dead -Cost to Replace $5,820 DISCOUNTED

    The dealer only changes assemblies. Good thing you have a warranty or it would cost thousands. Be sure to check the fuses first though.

    Need help locating a Contactor for my Leviton 40 amp charger

    If it is not the contactor and it is out of warranty an OpenEVSE unit will work. I put one into an Aeroenvirement unit for a man with good results.

    Key Fobs not Recognized

    If the fobs are like the VW ones they need the full 3.3V of a new battery. 3V is within spec but no go.

    google doc spreadsheet of VIN's and component failures

    The 2017 B250E has a drive train from the Netherlands. To me that implies the Tesla fixed Tesla drivetrain. There is a thread here that Toyota is scrapping off lease RAV4 EV's for the parts. From that aspect you will end up with servicable old parts.

    Toyota buying back 2013 Rav4EVs?

    I still get them for my 2013 Leaf that I turned in to Nissan. It is a scam to get you into the sales room.

    Have LEAF -- want RAV4 EV

    I tried to purchase one of the last new RAV4 EV's but the Toyota dealer had no interest in my Leaf. On the other hand, Mercedes was desperate and gave me a really good deal.

    Leviton Leviton EVR40 Charger having a bad day?

    I put an OpenEVSE board into a burned up aeroenviremrnt EVSE. The board is pretty universal. It most likely would work in the Leviton.

    High Current Draw During Charging

    Fuses blow (fuse) strictly by heat. If the holder is a little loose it can make a difference. OpenEVSE originally used a 30A rated 3AG style holder. it got so hot at half current that they switched to a 5AG style for larger fuses to better dissipate the heat.

    OPENEVSE charging on TT-30

    I see the eBay price has recently doubled. For $6.95 you can get a USBASP and a ten to 6 pin adapter. The last unit I purchased already was 6 pin and it was $3 shipped. They forgot to program it so it did nothing but since I planned to upgrade the firmware that was OK. I have a batch file so...

    OPENEVSE charging on TT-30

    If you need a programmer with no support it is around $3 shipped from China on eBay. Chris sells the same programmer with US shipping and support for $20. The ones I have received from eBay work but to get around the nag message you need to upgrade the firmware. I assume that the ones Chris...
