Warning
Cybertruck electronics are powered by a 48V "mid voltage" or "MV" architecture that is designed to improve efficiency. Servicing MV components requires extra knowledge and care in order to avoid personal and/or vehicular harm. Read and understand MV precautions in Electrical Precautions and make sure any required MV-related training courses have been completed, as applicable.

Install

  1. Inspect the HV busbar connector of the replacement busbar chargeport assembly.
    • If the gasket inside the connector is green, skip to step 3. Greasing of the DC FC header is not necessary.
    • If the gasket inside of the connector is purple, continue to step 2 and grease the DC FC header.
  2. Prepare the grease gun with Mobil XTCE grease, apply a 6 mm diameter continuous bead around the DC FC header inner perimeter, and then use a gloved finger wetted with alcohol to smear the grease up the inner wall to a height of 10 mm.

    Note
    x2 HV joints
    Informational PurposesAn informational icon, calling your attention
    Note
    When using a Hioki tester, verify the meter has been properly adjusted and set prior to usage.
    Informational PurposesAn informational icon, calling your attention
    Note
    The acceptable resistance is between 0.050 mΩ (50 μΩ) and 0.195 mΩ (195 μΩ).
    • If the resistance is greater than 0.195 mΩ (195 μΩ), there is too much resistance in the High Voltage joint. Remove the fastener, clean areas with isopropyl alcohol, install fastener back and test again.
    • If the resistance is lower than 0.050 mΩ (50 μΩ), reposition the probes and measure again.
    • If the resistance is repeatedly between 0.00 mΩ and 0.050 mΩ (50 μΩ), the Hioki test passed. proceed to the next step.
