BMS with all the harnesses attached. Not sure if all these connections are necessary for our build but we're going with it until we hear otherwise. Anyone want to comment on what's necessary and not? I'm not sure how to invoke the "@isak" link for his response. It would be great if someone could help me with that.
@leshall89 All the BMS connectors are necessary except the ones going to the relay that controls the resistive heaters that sit on the cells (not all leaf packs come with resistive heaters). It's the cables that go from the BMS to a rectangular black box. Temperature sensor cables connector and the 12V and CAN connector and the rest of the balancing wires are all needed for the BMS to not throw a fit

Itβs not normal to get N206c error message on the display. Try working out what that means.

@isak When you speak of resistive heaters, is this what you mean? Can I remove these things along with the wiring?

image url)Yeah that's exactly what I mean, you can remove them

@ianlighting Try working out what that means? Should I go back to college and get an electrical engineering degree?

you can read what the error codes mean the Owners manual: https://resolve-ev.com/pdfs/owners_manual.pdf

@isak Now that I know what is shown on the OLED is an error code...this code is "Caution lamp and Charging stop" From the Owners Manual: These are all errors directly from the Nissan Leaf BMS, they are quite explanatory and should also be corrected immediately. A good solution to locate the error is to use Leafspy
and look for the errors the BMS experiences. One cause for the caution lamp and charge
stop error could be a disconnected BMS balancing wire. This will cause the bms to not allow
charging of the battery and limit the motor to 4.5kW of power.
It is recommended to use a bluetooth dongle and to connect Leafspy to your car for specific
diagnostics and to see the health of your battery.The LELink bluetooth OBD dongle came with my kit. Doesn't look like I can access it because I don't own an Apple product.
Is Leafspy an app or another piece of hardware?

As you can read in the Owners manual linked here: https://resolve-ev.com/pdfs/owners_manual.pdf
This is a "warning light" signal from the BMS I would recommend updating the Resolve controller to the latest software update here: https://resolve-ev.com/update
If that does not solve it I would try to troubleshoot if something is connected wrong to or from the BMS
