    I'm curious how long this will last you. As you stated before, your previous repairs have lasted a long time. But now with older modules.....time will tell.

    Doesn’t seem like (or nothing noted) any balancing was done, just a swap and go:(.

    It will be interesting (y).

    ya gotta do what ya gotta do.. voltages ranged from 7.4 to 7.9 so it should be fine.. as mentioned all gen 2 mods are nearing 10 years old as is the car so I think the next time it dies Ill just sell her as-is and get something else.. its not cost effective to put over $1000 into a car wirth $2500 in good condition.. yes I know KKB says my baby is worth $3800 but in the real world its $2500 on a good day, cash buyer are few and far between here

    true I got 14 months out of the last one for a 2 mod swap... I assume the car is still driving around somewhere sold it when I bought this 08.. its just a car, they all die sooner or later.. that's why I don't pay a lot for them to start with..

    I experienced this very code on my 05. I replaced modules and put in back in the car, connected it up to see if it would throw any codes. I turned the car on and had no issues so I decided to drive it around a little. On the way back I had to make a hard brake because of traffic. Almost immediately it threw codes and the red triangle. When I got back home and researched it I found that not being grounded could be a cause of the problem. I bolted the case down and the issue went away. I guess when it put it in the car and connected everything it was grounded but the hard braking maybe moved it a little and it lost ground.
