High voltage battery replacement

[njwilson]

I’m getting my high voltage battery replaced this week finally after 5 weeks of my truck sitting at Tesla waiting for parts. I was informed by the service team that only the battery is being replaced and not the pcs2 along with it. I was told it is highly recommended to replace both if the battery goes out. Anyone have any thoughts on this? Thanks.

You can ask nicely, but if you don't have any previous errors in the service logs, they will not likely replace until problems arise.

Theoretically, the replacement pack includes all the Ancillary Components, including the PCS. The service center doesn't swap all those parts over.

As in: they(pcs, and ?) come with the replacement battery assembly kit but the techs only use the new battery pack? What do they do with the rest of the components in that kit?

As in a replacement pack includes all the components in the sealed cover already assembled. Nothing gets transfered from the original except for the restraint module.

The PCS is inside the sealed battery pack? I didn't know they ever opened the battery packs to service components inside them. I thought they just part swapped the entire assembly battery pack.

They installed the new HVBATT today
Don’t have the truck back yet
Say I received the 1783970-TX-M version
Grok says it’s the dry cell pack
I will try and confirm that
Need a few days

There are two main compartments in the full pack assembly. The cell area never gets messed with, but the PCS, ACJB, DCA, ... all live under the cover accessed through the vault.
Pryo Fuses are accessed from a cover under this section.

Isn’t the PCS contained in the battery pack “hump” in the rear? If they replace the pack, I’m assuming the new pack would have all the BMS AND CHARGING hardware in it?
