Exactly my question.. Is the original cable required when returning the car?

Has anyone returned their RAV4 EV without the charging cable? Thinking of selling mine (not using) and using the proceeds to buy another L2 EVSE for the road. Thanks in advance!

Thanks Peter, that's the first the I checked as I read something on the Nissan Leaf forums about that happening. Low and behold, it's correctly marked as "E" or electric...

Hence my frustration! Some bonehead at DMV thought I should get green stickers instead! Ugh!

I've been patiently waiting for DMV to send my white decals as the dealer I leased my Rav from didn't order them ahead of time. I was ecstatic to hear they were finally processed last week (had been 3 weeks). I just received an envelope in the mail with an updated registration card showing the...

I think others have reported those as false positives.. I don't use antivirus (primary mac user) so I wouldn't know.

Just received my cable in the mail today. Made the following customizations in less than 5 minutes: Turned OFF seatbelt beeps (driver's and passengers) Turned OFF reverse beeps (set to single beep) Changed auto light timer to 0 (headlights if set to auto will immediately turn off after opening...

I wanted to do the exact same thing, but Clipper Creek explicitly advised against doing so.. They said they required a 60A circuit (and breaker) for the HCS-60. Glad to hear it's working just fine though, but thought I'd let you know CC's stance on it..

Just a quick update - successfully installed my HCS-60 along with a 60A circuit. Soo excited to have 240V/40A charging!

Yes, you can use it to read error codes, reprogram keys, and all the customizations in the manual that "require dealer intervention"

Thanks all! This is what I ended up buying: 6-3 Indoor Non-Metallic Jacket Wire (By-the-Foot) http://www.lowes.com/pd_70166-295-63950045_4294857952_4294937087_ The run is 6-8 ft (bought 9 ft just in case). My install is back to back with my main breaker panel outside to my indoor garage. Do...

Hi all, wanted to see what others have done when installing a 60A circuit (ordered a Clipper Creek HCS-60). I'm getting conflicting information - some electricians say #4 wire others are saying #6. What have others seen done? Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Exactly what I was thinking. I opted out of this coverage.

Thank you to everyone! Had a stressful time at the dealership but made it out with two N/A's on a manual contract. The finance manager wouldn't budge and basically told me to walk if I wasn't willing to sign the 15K terms the computer generated. The GM came over and backed him up stating that...

Hi All, in a bit of a pickle here. Signing for my RAV4 EV and the dealer is insisting that there is no way to show N/A on the contract for miles and overage. It currently shows 15,000 miles and 0.15/mile for overage. Can someone who ran into this issue with their dealer please suggest what might...

Thanks, hopefully the seatbelt beeps too. I read the thread where users were using techstream to do it themselves. I'm coming from a prius and was successful using an elm237 bluetooth adapter to do it myself. Has anyone done this?

Thanks for all the comments. True $0 drive off. Payments will end up being $466 as my tax rate was inputted 0.5% short of what it actually is (9.5%). Will post back once papers are signed (most likely tomorrow AM). Any other gotchas I should be aware of? Excessive wear and tear plan worth...
