Step 16. Use the torx wrench to remove the cover of the electronics compartment. Marvel for a moment at the elegant
simplicity of the engineering in this electric vehicle.
Important note: It is imperative that you keep the inside of the electronics compartment free of all dirt, debris, metal
shavings, wire trimmings, and tools. When the car is re-energized, extremely high voltages will be present in here.
Leaving a screw driver or even a few strands of misplaced wire inside could create a huge problem.
Step 17. Using a volt meter set in a range appropriate for reading 250 to 350 volts direct current (VDC), verify that
there is no voltage present at the traction battery connection bolts in the upper right corner of the electronics
compartment.
