Is this a fuse we can replace ourselves or does it have to be through tesla service? Is it the Pyro fuse based on the code above. I am out of warrantee and the alarm just came up 2 weeks ago. $450 cost from what I can see so not a killer but since I am out of warrantee I am mechanically and electronically inclined and could take care of the simpler items where possible. Thoughts?

Have seen multiple Model S reports, both in USA and Europe, over the past few days indicating alert that battery operated pyro fuse needs replacement with newer self powered pyro fuse. In some cases pack needs removal due to location of access cover. So far underdetermined if covered under...

Either Tesla or @Recell . Or local CT Auto, detailed in post #6 below.
Tesla has both reman and new replacement packs with 4 yr/50k mile warranty. I personally went with a new (not reman) pack from Tesla.
Although Recell is located in TX, they will pay for shipping to them but you have to get it home. No sales tax for out of state owners and 1-2 day turnaround once they get the car. Recell includes 6-12 month warranty (I've forgotten exactly) but offers a 2 yr/25k warranty for around $2500.

$10k USD - That seems to be the current market rate for an 85 kWh used/reman/salvage replacement pack that gives the owner a rated range of around 240 miles. Just the pack. Any applicable labor, taxes, and warranty (explained below) are extra.
$10k includes Tesla, 3rd party professionals and salvage yards. Tesla bundles in a 4 year/50k mile warranty while others offer warranties at an extra cost. Each year of warranty seems to range from $1250-$1500/year. e.g. Tesla's basic $15k=$10k pack + (4) x $1250 warranty. Of course, Tesla does not break things down like this, but based on 3rd party warranty fees, a reasonable comparison.
So your decision around that magic $10k number for a 85 kWh used/reman/salvage replacement pack revolves around warranty and convenience of location/time.
Lastly, Tesla is the only one providing new (not reman) replacement packs. $18k base plus tax, labor, etc for around $21k total. Comes with 4yr/50k mile warranty. This is only option (unless you get a 1-2 year old salvage replacement pack) that will give you the original rated range and slightly faster super charging speeds.
