Is there anything to add to the material? Write in the comments.
Is there a fuse for the resistor heater, that heats the car. My heater fan blows well, but without heat. I cannot find a fuse for it. I am sure it would be high amperage.
You may want to check the heater element. This is known to stop working on many Leafs 2011-2017.
Same prob as Dwight worker plus display screen kept flipping, draining the 12v Batt when car switched off. Discovered that with car charger plugged in and left in screen stopped flipping even when full charge reached and charging stopped.
But… stop press! Tonight noticed window were open so had to disconnect charge point to start car to close windows. Switched off car, display didn’t flip! Waited full 5 minutes, still didn’t flip. Who knows!
But the heater problem remains. Just where is the fuse for ther heater element?
Trying to locate the fuse for charging the car. It’s a 2020 Nissan Leaf.
