Red Triangle, all lights, hard to start, bucks on acceleration

Well, I might as well burn an ~hour to do some due diligence...as long as I don't find more than 1 other bad cell

 

Yeah, just another week for more cells to wait for. I'll do it nonetheless. weekends! amiright?

Nonrelated: pray for LA! (Louisiana) they look like they're going to get a nasty one.

 

If they are all within the same voltage @ open current, and the ones which do not perform under CC conditions are replaced, I will happily do some strong charging/depletion circuits "off the bench".

In the coming week, after I load test the incoming cells, I will afterwards run the gamut with the charge/discharge with OBD2.

Do you feel there is a good level of value to thoroughly discharge/recharge the entire pack before installation?

 

It went great! only replaced one module. It was a while ago so I cannot say which one but the one module was "lagging" I suppose you could say. It was not accepting a charge very well and it was not discharging very well. I identified that one, and replaced it.

The process was tedious to remove the battery and test the modules. I also got a new harness (for the voltage meters) and cleaned all the copper connectors and nuts to a shine.

 

Thanks!

Yeah the only thing I think I would have done as well is to apply some sort of lacquer or spray thin dielectric grease over the connections to keep the corrosion at bay. I think the voltage meter wires being as skinny as they are with exposed copper at the ends are the most subject to fault from corrosion.
