First Timer with battery problems, need help asap

it will work fine, but eventually throw the codes back up. every case is different, but if i were in your shoes, i'd just keep doing the whack a mole, (time being more available than cash) and keep trying to learn how to rebalance in the future. there are many good threads here with all the info necessary. make a game out of how long it takes to take it all apart and put it together. like a pit crew, see if you can take a few minutes of each rebuild. all the best!

 

pleasure.

 

Module replacement in general has short lived longevity (hours, days, weeks). BALANCING is REQUIRED for a better longevity; you'll have to make a custom harness to wire all 28 modules in PARALLEL (positive to positive, negative to negative)

DO NOT use the "lawn mower charger," unless you wish to be worse off.

EDIT:
IIRC, the HV Battery ECU will trigger a code if there is more than a .2V difference between the 14 module pairs. Your replacement is already at .2V lower. You really need to rebalance otherwise, you'll be getting P0A80 in hours/days again.

 

If you're going to try and replace modules without rebalancing, I think you should replace the entire block instead of a single module. That way the pair of modules will be matched and won't have different capacity.

 

Just one caution I'd add to that ... it's pretty human, when doing some complicated task over and over and trying to shave seconds off, to begin to feel "yeah, I've got this down, could do it in my sleep" and to lose some of the attentiveness and focus compared to the first time.

The battery, however, never stops being a 200+ volt, 100+ amp energy source.

Be safe....
