    Since April 8th it's back to the road! [image: 1780514460331-img-20260408-wa0001-resized.png] Everything works fine. It drives great. And I have to say thanks to Isak for the great resolve EV conversion kit! With the 40kWh battery pack the range is about 200-250km when driving in the city.

    Finally got the wheels turning, LeafSpy connected for long enough to do some DTC fault finding. Errors reported as expected when disconnecting different parts of the system, only when the inverter was disconnected no change in DTC. So I checked the inverter connector for continuity and there was a wire break on the ground. Nice easy solution despite lots of investigation. Time to find space for the batteries.

    Hi Everyone, I have a 30ft classic launch which until now has run on diesel, I am pulling that out and repowering with a Nissan Leaf system, and 62kWh battery, and using the Resolve Marine Controller and Wiring Loom. Has anyone done a similar conversion anywhere? I am really struggling to find someone who has done it before, certainly not here in NZ. Look forward to hearing from anyone, regards, Di

    Thanks! The batteries are modules from 24kwh pack. Purchased both as-is from another ev conversion builder who had already reformed the modules into what I am calling two sets that you see in my pictures. For each set I have a large set bms bus bar orange thing. To make this work I had to do some rewiring of the bms harness which involved re-pinning the connectors. I was able to locate and find connectors (Mouser) similar to what nissan used in the original bms harness. I purchased the little pins (both male and female) along with a crimper. Now the bms control module sees the same modules as it did when the configuration of modules came out of the pack. My next work is to create an "extension cord" that will allow both battery sets to lie end-to-end like you see in the photo. I have pinout diagram I drew that might help anyone that wants to do same thing I can share if interested and/or can put up photos.

    Pictures are always good. Please post! Single biggest time sink for me was the complication of more than 1 battery box. I don’t know LR architectures, but if you can consolidate to only 2 instead of 3 you’ll appreciate it.
