We have an old Leaf, which means we need some workarounds for things that used to just work.
Take the Charging Timer functionality - the timer for charging has a system set clock that was set by the 2G signal - which means if the 12V battery is replaced, this needs to be manually reset.


This is how you do that.
Step 1
Ensure the audio is completely turned off and shutdown the car.
Step 2
Put the car into ready mode - do not press the brake and switch the car on.
Step 3
- Press the map button thrice.
- Press the audio twice.
- Press the map button once.
Step 4
You will be presented with a menu, you want the second option "Confirmation/Adjustment".
Step 5
Go to the second page, and do "Clock settings".
Step 6
Manually set the time. You need GMT (UTC+0) not British Summer Time! Set the clock to the year, month, day, hour (-1 if BST), and minute seen on the dashboard. Press OK and wait for the "updating" message to disappear.
Step 7
Hit the "Back" button on the top of the screen. The car will power down.
Step 8
Switch on the car again and set the Charging Timer.
