smart 453 seat belt rattle? - Not on my watch
zhlédnutí 178Před 3 měsíci
I'm far too easily distracted by rattles so I have to work out what they are and stop them. All the 453s I own have this knocking noise. I normally plug the seatbelt into the receiver but the girlfriend always forgets so the belt end flaps about. You can get clips that you push the seat belt tongue into, however, you have to manually plug the seat belt into it. That ain't happening.

It is heartening to see the most popular hardware being hacked and cracked, you can pick up open-source motor controllers for popular components such as the Nissan Leaf and Tesla motors as well as aftermarket BMS's designed by enthusiasts. It's getting to the stage where early EV's are becoming viable parts sources for conversions, not just for vehicles but for other transport such as boats and aircraft (the latter being trickier due to regulations).
