To use OVMS to activate remote climate the Nissan TCU (Telematics Control Unit) module must be unplugged if fitted e.g satnav headunit (only on Acenta and Tekna models). The TCU is located behind the glovebox on LHD cars or on the right hand side of the drivers foot well on RHD cars. The large white plug on the rear of the TCU should be unplugged, push down tab in the middle and pull to unplug, `see video for RHD cars <https://photos.app.goo.gl/MuvpCaXQUjbCdoox6>`_ and `this page for LHD cars <http://www.arachnon.de/wb/pages/en/nissan-leaf/tcu.php>`_.

Note: Unplugging the TCU will disable Nissan EV connect / CARWINGS features e.g Nissan mobile app. All other car functions will not be effected e.g GPS, maps, radio, Bluetooth, microphone all work just the same as before. OVMS can be used to more than substitute the loss of Nissan Connect features. The TCU can be plugged back in at any point in the future if required.

OVMS remote climate support will 'just work' on LEAF Visia models and Visia/Acenta e-NV200 since these models do not have a TCU fitted. In the US these base models are called S.
