2021 Nissan LEAF Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$49.99 USD
Unit price
Written around the 2021 Nissan LEAF as Nissan documented it, this factory service and repair manual is tied to the exact year, drivetrain and trim in front of you, right down to the EM57 battery-electric powertrain and the lithium-ion traction battery it draws from, so the values and sequences you work to are the ones set for this car and not a close approximation carried over from a neighboring model year.

Known issues on the 2021 LEAF. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first is a documentation defect: the owner's manual instructions for defroster operation are incorrect and may result in reduced defroster performance under specific conditions, and reduced defroster performance can limit visibility out of the windshield, increasing the risk of a crash. The second covers vehicle speed control, where the vehicle may accelerate unintentionally if the driving mode is changed after disengaging the cruise control, and unintentional acceleration can increase the risk of a crash. The third covers the rearview camera, where damage to the camera harness can cause distortion or loss of the display image, and a rearview camera that does not properly display an image can reduce the driver's rear view, increasing the risk of a crash. The fourth covers the traction battery on cars equipped with a Level 3 quick charging port, where the lithium-ion battery may overheat during Level 3 charging, and a quick charging battery that overheats increases the risk of a fire. Owners have filed 53 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are on record.
Whether you are tracing a drive-mode or e-Pedal acceleration complaint, inspecting the rearview camera harness, or working through quick-charge behavior on the battery, this manual holds you to the OEM procedure and the right figure for this specific 2021 LEAF.
