Can you let us know from where you were able to obtain these components?

For a wired fault code scanner and reset tool, I use the iCarsoft i909.

There is a standard i-MiEV battery for sale for £3,000 in the Members Classifieds on the SpeakEV Forum. It was replaced under warranty by Mitsubishi 3 years ago, at a cost of £10,000.

I do not have any percentage numbers, but I have definitely been able to increase charge levels by concatenating back-to-back CHAdeMO sessions.

I have a complete strut removed from the nearside of my "Coparts" iOn ( a wreck with OSF damage ). The strut top mount is a separate item, secured to the car turret with two nuts onto studs pressed into the top mount. The top mount attaches to the shock absorber rod in the usual way, with a nut...

If you are planning to remove only the lower control arm, you do not need a spring compressor. Remove the horizontal bolt that holds the front bush, the vertical one that goes through the damaged rear bush, and then unscrew and remove the shouldered nut and bolt that goes through the slot ground...

Part numbers for the OEM i-MiEV shocks, and the identical Mitsubishi Pajero Pinin alternative:: Mitsubishi : MR374286 KYB 343408 NK 63302787 Japko MJ50036 Japanparts MM50036 Bilstein 19-227856 Monroe D7002 (Mod. Edit - fit problem: https://myimiev.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=46360#p46360)...

Have you tried https://www.secondlife-evbatteries.com They did have some a couple of years ago.

That 2012 iOn with a P1A15 error was also discussed on the "speakev" website in this thread: https://www.speakev.com/threads/peugeot-ion-p1a15-error-code-capacitor-not-charging.153841/

To remove the hybrid, are you unsoldering the pins from the hybrid daughter board, or from the motherboard? To make the hybrid "pluggable", do you know of any suitable pin-and-socket kits that provide, or could be cut into, single pins? I need to upgrade my soldering equipment. Presently I...

Regarding cooling: only the high-power transistors ( IGBTs ) in the upper chamber require cooling. They are fixed to a cold plate which is bolted to the liquid-cooled cast alloy box. There are no high-wattage components on the lower board that dissipate enough heat to require cooling. The board...

Since this P1A15 error is false, a solution may be to replace the hybrid board with a timed voltage ramp - a resistor-capacitor circuit or something more accurate - with an output that would simulate the required charging curve.

They are transformers, not magnets. They can be magnetised, by the current applied to the primary winding, and the magnetic flux created by this current will induce current in the secondary. The magnetic cores are made from ferrite, which is highly permeable but has negligible remanence...

I think they mean "wholesaler" - i.e. a company, not a private person, who would have a business account with them and purchase a significant volume of products. Perhaps you could reply to them by asking if they could recommend an existing wholesale of theirs, perhaps based in USA, who deals...

The AD8677 Op-Amps seem to be readily available on eBay.com or ebay.co.uk, priced between $5 and $10, but in some cases even 5 pcs for that price: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5PCS-X-AD8677AUJZ-R2-IC-OPAMP-GP-600KHZ-TSOT23-5-Analog/332250396538
