2015 NISSAN LEAF relay

2-3 High Voltage Circuit Shut-Off System
The
high voltage can be shut off by the following methods: Service plug
Positioned in the center area of the Li-ion battery, this shuts off output high
voltage
when manually removed.
System main relay (located
in high voltage battery) Controlled by the power switch, this relay, which is controlled by the 12V
system, shuts off the high voltage from the Li-ion battery.
Emergency shut-off sys-
tem In the case of a collision (front and side collisions in which the air bags are
deployed, certain rear collisions) or certain system malfunctions this system
is designed to shut off the high voltage from the Li-ion battery.
Charging connector Some of the high voltage components are activated during charging. Remove the charging connector to deactivate these components.
2-4 Preventing Electrical Shock 1. If it is necessary to touch any of the high voltage harnesses or components, you must alwayswear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
(refer to 3-2 Preparation Items (DG–15) ) and shut off the high voltage system by referring
to 3-4 High Voltage System Shut-Down Procedures (DG–16).
2.

To avoid the risk of electrocution, NEVER touch the inside of the Li-ion battery unless appropriate
PPE is worn even after shutting off the high voltage system. The Li-ion battery maintains charge
even though the high voltage system is shut down.
3. Cover any damaged high voltage components with insulated tape.
DG–12

12. If necessary, connect the vehicle to a charging station or EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply
Equipment) to charge the Li-ion battery. The vehicle cannot be driven unless the Li-ion battery is
charged.
NOTE:
If it is not possible to turn the LEAF system ON by following this procedure, contact a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer immediately.
4-2 P (Park) Position Release Procedure
If you need to release the vehicle from the P (Park) position, proceed as follows. When power switch is
turned OFF or 12V battery is low, LEAF automatically shifts to P position.
NOTE: This procedure requires two (2) people.
1. To start the EV system with a booster battery, refer to 4. Jump Starting (DG–31).
2.

Turn power switch ON by pushing the power switch 2 times without pressing brake pedal.
3. Confirm parking brake is applied.
4. Close all doors and press and hold the brake pedal.
5. Place the selector lever in the N (Neutral) position.
6. Remove the following 2 fuses:
• F/L 40A PBW MTR (under hood fuse and relay box)
• METER 1 10A (in the cabin fuse box)
