2018 40Kwh Nissan Leaf Battery Disassembly

- I recently purchased a used 40kwh 2018 nissan leaf battery from a salvage yard in Tennessee to disassemble for the individual battery modules to use in an electric motorcycle. This video goes through a timelapse with general instructions on how to disassemble a similar battery.
Make sure to budget an entire day for this project, as it took me a total of 11 hours without any help or extra lifting tools.
Enjoy! - Zábava

Thank you! It's very interesting and useful. I will eventually change the bms from my 30kwh battery to a salvage 40kwh battery
Disassembly of the battery case may be added by using a "heat gun" to soften the adhesive. Cheers
Saludos desde España buen trabajo y gracias por el vídeo
I was wondering have you thought about adapting a Toyota or Ford Hybrid cooling Fan system to cool the Batteries on Nissan Leaf?
If you went that far you can probably rebuild them. You could sell a rebuilt pack for 5000 each.
Any info on the diy ev bike? Forum thread? I've been thinking of doing the same and would like some inspiration
Or you can use the proper air windshield remover tool also.
Do you still have modules for sale? Thanks
Did you take apart the damaged module? Any video of it?
I did take it apart but don’t have video. I do have a few pictures though. Use lots of rubbing alcohol to loosen the glue holding the cells together and. It isn’t so bad.
quick question, do this system have a ventilation safety device?
@mike h for venting the gases out in an event of thermal runaway
Yes
@@jphaggert if u have time can you photo for me mate. I am selling these devices in Europe
Hi good day

how long did he whole disassembly take you?
about 8 hours. would be much quicker on a second one.
Thanks for the quick response
What are you doing with the bad cells? Can I buy from you?
I still have 10 good modules for sale
@@jphaggert How much for all? Any trades ?
$3k for all 10 picked up in San Jose CA
@@jphaggert sorry. No USA for me.
👍👍👍👍👈
Hello please help me, I very need current sensor from 62 or 40 kwh battery (( do you have it?
I would love to get in contact with you about a project im starting in about 2 months. Im going to be breaking down 40kwh batter pack as well. Is their any way we can speak or message eachother?
I wanna upgrade can you help me
Jesus for the love of god if you ever going to do this again remove the LBC first, it’s the brains and heart of the pack not the shutdown switch/service switch
It may be the brains but it ain’t the muscle... removing the LBC (BMS for most other folks familiar with building or working on EVs) wont do you any good here. Even if it did, the first thing I did after opening the pack was to remove the BMS connections. The contactors are open and the mechanical pack split is removed before taking the cover off. So in essence you’re opening 2x 150V packs that are completely covered by orange plastic, while wearing 1000V gloves and ideally insulated tools.
Again, removing the LBC/BMS will only provide a false sense of security- it has no ability to open contactors that are already open or prevent you from shorting between two terminals when unscrewing the bus bar connections.
@@jphaggert you say that but I work on these for a living, I literally build these everyday and strip them back most days I know how it work and how my company says it should be done, and your doing it wrong.
Care to explain? If I am doing it wrong, what is the right way to do it?
Removing the BMS connections is the same as removing the physical BMS. The first thing I did after opening the battery was remove the connection to the BMS.
If that’s not the case please explain.
@@jphaggert You didn't do anything wrong. I hate that you tore the pack apart though. It should have gone into a leaf in need of a battery upgrade. Tear a part an old 24 kwh battery if you must.
