Broken HV Temp Sensor

Anybody who rebuilds packs has lots of these lying around... Someone on here will probably mail you a spare one for free or a tiny fee...

 

@TMR-JWAP lives near you and has offered to mail these to people for free or even a small fee on here before. I'd be offering to do that for you right now but I just organized all my spare parts and am down to my last spare of those because some of the spares I had turned out to be damaged and had to be thrown away.

 

Order Temp Sensor off ebay or Amazon. Just have to make sure the model number is correct. This is how i repaired mine. Easy fix. Temp resistors don't have a positive or negative, you can install it either way. I stripped the remaining heat shrink off the ends of the broken temp sensor/resistor and used the 2 firm ends to plug into the adapter plug that came with the new sensor. Wrapped in around on itself, secured tape and folded the extra length of wire and taped both back into the end of the HV battery. I used a pair of forceps to keep the wires from pulling back in the battery housing while i was working on it. The sensor will look different depending on where you buy it. But as long as the model number is correct, it will work fine.

Harness on ebay $150 :/

Temp Sensor/Resistor on Amazon or ebay: 1-4 $10-$15 xD

Feeling of doing it yourself and a fixed car: Priceless*

 

This is the one I used: Waterproof Temperature Sensor Temp Probe Thermistor NTC 10K B3950. Any 'NTC 10K B3950' Temp Sensor will do the trick as long as it matches that.
