Actually you don't need a new J1772 Cable on it, all you need is a new head.
Replace the Avcon head with a J1772 head, very simple. I've done quite a few.
And as David said, it's a good idea to replace the battery for the internal
clock.
Here is a link to show how to do it, both ways shown.

Here's an article that describes M3's battery orientation, which is radically

Here's a follow up article about the article that came thru a couple days ago.
It seems that the problem was with a first-gen prototype station at a test site

A 270 watt panel is 64.88" × 38.98".
Your guesstimate of 1 watts would require (1 /270) 37.037 panels.
Doing the math (64.88 x 38.98 x 37), that is 93573 sq inches.
There are 144 sq i

I've had this discussion before and it someone said that the reason was basicly
for the Proximity switch. So that when the Latch on the plug was pushed it would
signal the contactor in the EV to open and stop the current flow so that there
would not be a hot disconnect.
