There are a handful of people I have heard from using the Leaf code, but I don’t know of anyone developing for it at the moment. There was a lot of discussion a year or so ago about which can bus to work from on the Leaf. Consensus was the EV bus. From my memory, the reasons were: We can use passive listening to see if the car is charging, driving or sleeping. Active polling is bi-directional, but if car is sleeping, polling causes vehicle to use a 12V solenoid to power up a controller each time, and we are worried about wear-and-tear as well as 12V battery consumption for those components. The EV bus has lots of stuff available on it. A search for Nissan Leaf in the archives would probably bring up all the gory details. Regards, Mark.

Hi all,
For my project I have changed the Nissan Leaf code to support connection with normal OBD cable. There are still some bugs to sort out but the code seems to function. This is a breaking change for those that use the special OBD cable for Nissan Leaf, and I am wondering if I should branch this off as a separate vehicle file? A "CAR CAN Nissan Leaf" instead of the "EV CAN Nissan Leaf"?
Is anyone using the current Nissan Leaf code?
