  3. Install the round insulator caps onto the HV battery positive contactor busbar bolt heads.
  4. Install the round insulator caps onto the HV battery negative contactor busbar bolt heads.
  5. Raise the high voltage controller, install the fuse access insulator onto the RH ancillary bay bus cover, fasten the clips that attach the insulator to the cover, and lower the high voltage controller.
  6. Install the special insulator onto the DC input assembly busbar bolt heads.
  7. Install the AC inlet terminal covers over the positive and negative ring terminal bolts, and fasten the clips that attach the AC inlet terminal covers to the HV battery fast charge contactor cover.
