Video

Is there a second video where u can show the dashboard and if it works fine after the switch?

My carb has a drain hole at the bottom...I was able to put a gas line from it to a bucket...let the gas flow for about 30 seconds. Closed the screw, and no more drips. 🙂. Thanks

small note about the disconnect: when it gets stuck in the halfway position, the center tab needs to be pressed it's a weird double-locking thing. ugh... I had my trouble getting the lever started because the two side tabs engaged a bit too strongly. (nothing a screwdriver wouldn't help with)

Whare i can gett old nissan batteries

This dude is brilliant. Simple ideas for a tough job. Is there an update on how everything worked out months later?

Did the BMS in the new car accept the new battery straight away? Or if not, how did you manage to get it to? Thanks. I saw a guy on youtube replace one and the dashboard came up full of errors and nothing would work. I don't know whatever happened to it as he never put up a follow up video on it.

Great job, Replacing EV batteries with unsatisfied requirement is a very meaningful thing, If you also want to replace EV battery for your car, Pls contact us, we can provide the EV battery module of Nissan Leaf for you.

How did you ground the thermal switch wire to the frame? Can anyone tell me in a detailed way how to do that exactly? I just seen the connecting end that goes on the the switch and have no idea how to go about this. I'm trying to test my fan also.

What’s the part number for the thermal switch?

How can I contact with you?

I'm just about to try this maneuver on our 2013 Leaf, replacing the original battery with a 2022 62kWh. Can't wait to see the range after we're done with the swap. The original battery is still at about 70% SOH so I'm going to use the cells for home backup, which is a nice bonus.

Someone should soon make an EV battery jack for the same reasons we have transmission jacks and engine removal lifts.

Thank you for this video, i have heating problem with a VT700. Driving its doin fine, standing still , goed into red en spils coolant from the resevoir hose . So i'm gonna check what you told me! Thank you!

I've got the newer version and have half of the uppers stuck. Not sure it's the same issue it's almost like the lift catch thing won't disengage. Maddening is right.

You could’ve used a pallet jack with a few pallets on it to lower, position then re-install the battery . Hope this helps. Thanks for the video

Thanks Mate. Nicely done and good vid. Cheers

Im having the same exact problem on my bike after this past winter. Going to try your solution instead of pulling the carbs again. Wondering, how long did this solution last for you?

Thanks grandpa

That’s actually kinda cool

What uear is your bike?

Great stuff. Excellent detail and description. Thanks for sharing.

Really nice job on the vid Doug; this is the kind of detail that makes this a realistic DIY job for a decently experienced home mechanic.

Please make a video to illustrate how you would do this job. Raising a car on four points is inherently dangerous. If you don’t know what you’re doing, don’t even think about doing this or even doing an oil change.

Thank you

did you have to reset the new battery, so the computer can accept it?

There are ppl rebuilding leaf batteries to give longer range, and or swapping longer range batteries from late model into older models. (I forget the details) Nice work mate. Keep going

Благодарю за информацию. Прекрасное изложение.

You are scaring me putting the car on what is essentially skinny stilts. One good rock and the whole think will come down at an angle. I guess you survived, but add blocking under the tires before getting under it again, please.

Just wanted to Thank you for this video. Did exactly what you said and fixed my leaking issue.

very very useful and innovative video Thanks

HEAD GASKET REPLACEMENT! IS WAY MORE WORK THAN THIS!.

I had a fuel leak from my neck-aka the fuel cut off line, so I replaced it but now it’s not leaking and now it’s leaking like inside of the motor in the middle from a line but have no idea where the line goes to, but looks like I have to take the tank off and everything 🙄

I have a 2011 Leaf in San Diego in great shape 65K miles, red if you want to go again on this. Only 20 miles of range. We put in a better battery and sell the car and share in profits.

Amazing video

Thanks for the vid! Actualy thinking of getting one for church and grocery commute coz gas here in LA is $$$.might contact you if i ever end up getting one ✌️💯

Thank you so so so much for sharing this video my friend. I owe you a beer if you’re ever in Springfield, MO.

Hey I might have missed it but what year is your cars? Thank you.

thanks my man brilliant tutorial 👍

Thanks for the video, I'm having the same problem with a 2001. The lock actuator works but when the door is closed and locked there is no unlocking it, even with the key.

This is Awesome!!!!!!!!

Thank you for the video, it's very important to know where you can put the jacks. It is much appreciated

This is exactly what just happened to me 15 minutes ago thank you so much great video❤❤

Good info. Resurrecting a 1993 vt1100c. Thanks for the details.

Nicely done, Doug!

My door can’t open back sit from inside

not only Germany but in rhe area of the biggest red light destrict in europe: the Reeperbahn in Hamburg

Thank you for posting this video. I had the same issue and this fixed it!!

You are no help man wtf is this man

2007 Honda shadow 1100 Sebree dealing with the same shit I just bought the bike ran great for 2 months I just did oil change gear box change was working on getting the special spark plug socket until my temperature light came on and keeps coming on n going off I checked the fan fuse(good) 12v checked the fan with my probe has 12v threw the ground to connect the circuit fan works not sure how to check the temperature sensor on the bottom of the radiator that tells the fan to come on but I haven’t herd my fan in a couple days normally I’ll hear it on after every trip when I stop, so I’m leaning towards changing out that thermal switch and the thermostat thoughts? Maybe something I haven’t thought of 😢it’s been a great bike love it just gotta get this fixed and cruise again 😎

I had exact same problem with my passenger side door. The metal arm wouldn’t adjust the spring to pop it open like it goes on the driver side. Hopefully this will pop it open so that I can then figure out how to repair the spring inside the door, so that I can actually use the doorhandles to unlock and open that door. Oddly, I did the same thing with my back hatch, but now it only stays open. It won’t latch to close!
