Dear All, Yesterday I modified a 1994 Nissan Maxima heater/AC blower motor to work as the TEVan battery blower. Blows strong, snug fit. Began charging at...
I don't know any history on your van, but I suspect that it sat a long time and the batteries are not fully recovered (if they ever will). I'd recommend...
I don't quite agree with that. Flooded NiCd's don't have any memory, but they do like to be occasionally pulled down to 1.0 VPC or in this case 180 Volts for...

Alex, I do not know what the manufacturer recommends for the NiFe's but the characteristics are similar to the NiCd's. Without detailed knowledge as to a...
Thanks again, The charger isn't going on though. No left marker light. Could be a fuse, could be the charger, could be the service. I have to get a little...
The left marker light is turned on after the green wire integrity test by pulling the -12V side of the marker light low with one of the 12V relays. That low...
The advice that I gave about driving the batteries to near zero is what Dave R. here in Atlanta was trying to do with his TeVan batts. When he got his van,...

The drive motor cooling fans on my TEVan (which I sold in 2005) failed after approximately 10,000 miles (they're cheap PM brush motor fans). I installed BLDC...
Sorry Jim, We disconnected the motor controller unit/charger, (MCU,) at the radsock positive and negative battery connectors on the passenger side of the box...
