Why is Lawrence replacing his 12V aux battery?
If I remember correctly, he traded in his old gen Leaf
for a newer (2017?) 30kWh Leaf. That would only make his
12V aux batt 3 years old, which should last from 4 to 6
years.
The OEM 12v Aux battery that comes with Leaf's are a common early
failure point. I had to replace mine at 4 years when it started to
corrode and had blue & white crystals escaping....

It does not surprise me that one has failed at the 3 year mark.
I went with an AGM replacement battery and am hoping it will last 4-6
years.
