Replacing HV Battery
- Thread starter goodbadboys9
- Start date
Hi, I own a 2012 Model S Signature P85 and having the same issue with the battery as you did, it failed at needs to be replaced. I wonder if you could share with me how to redeploy the software. I have a module that allows me to switch the car to Dev or Factory mode / redeploy the existing version of the software. Do you think this is all that is required to do the swap? Thanks
If both batteries or the same revision I think redeploying the software should work if not it might need a config change.
I didn't remember where it is but you should be having the option to redeploy firmware in one of the screens if you are in Dev Mode
do you know if a config change is doable in Dev mode or requires additional equipment to be involved? Thanks
It doesn't appear difficult to change config at all, fakra cable to ethernet, connect to IC port, to enable MCU port, and commands to gateway, or something. But the command to enable the MCU port, and gateway config commands and procedures are kept under wraps by anyone that knows them, no one shares, so that you can mesaage them on here and pay them $75 or $150 or whatever, to remote into your computer that's connected and run the commands. Worst modding community ever 
I am going to try a battery swap myself as well! I found a company in Northern CA that is a tesla automotive dismantle company. They are called Doughnut auto parts. The people are great and helpfull. They have access to perform battery swaps. Now to start the process and check out the battery. I am not sure yet how to integrate the pack with the software. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Hold down the model number in the software menus and type service to enter service mode. From there can ECU redeploy.
Really cool thread! Congrats on coming out on top and not giving up @goodbadboys9! I just finished swapping 16 Gen 2 modules into a 2013 Model S P85. I need help with the firmware deploy and config portion.

wk057 replied to u in salvage owners thread about this but for everyone else who reads this, BMS/BMBs need to match.
That is correct I spoke to Russ at 057. He was nice and very pleasant. Unfortunately I’m in California. So that made it a non starter.
It might be a good idea to join the Facebook page called BMS_u029/BMS_u018. There is a lot of talent there including Recell. Ask the question and I'm sure you will get some good answers
