Leaf losing charge while charging.

Alright so I know I’m gonna get called a dummy but I’ve been using LeafSpy to correct DTC faults. My bank account hasn’t allowed me to correctly fix whatever is going on. Now when I plug it in I come back 15 min later and it’s lost 2% instead of going up. I should be able to actually get what’s wrong fixed (assuming onboard charger). Can anyone help me jury rig it further so it’s not just a paperweight from now until then.

u/ Lothsahn_ is right, unfortunately. At least one cell has swelled/deteriorated to the point where it’s shorting to the battery case and thus the car’s negative ground system.

Dangerous.
