The precharge resistor upgrade is done differently than the one seen previously on line. It uses a resistor with over 30x the power handling capability of the one it replaces. While it is enclosed, it's installation is simpler and does not require dropping the traction battery and partial disassembly.

I'm curious how you do that, since all access to the battery and cables requires dropping the pack, to the best of my knowledge, and I can't think of another way to access the pre-charge leads in order to replace the resistor. No worries if you'd rather not share it for the sake of your business, though.
