Coolant Pump - Powertrain (Heat Pump) (Remove and Replace)
Correction code 18308122 0.54 NOTE: Unless otherwise explicitly stated in the procedure, the above correction code and FRT reflect all of the work required to perform this procedure, including the linked procedures. Do not stack correction codes unless explicitly told to do so.NOTE: See Flat Rate Times to learn more about FRTs and how they are created. To provide feedback on FRT values, email LaborTimeFeedback@tesla.com. NOTE: See Personal Protection to make sure wearing proper PPE when performing the below procedure.
Note
If the coolant pump has been replaced twice, escalate a Toolbox
session before proceed.
- 2024-08-07: Changed instruction for lubrication of O-rings to use Silicone lubricant instead of using silaramic grease.
- 2024-03-04: Updated the routines.

- On the touchscreen, touch Run, and allow the routine to complete. and select
- Disconnect 12V power. See 12V/LV Power (Disconnect and Connect).
-
Place an absorbent material
underneath the coolant pump.
NoteMake sure the material covers the front drive unit 12V connector, steering rack, and is positioned to catch fluid from the heat exchanger coolant outlet.
-
Release the locking tab, and
then disconnect the electrical harness from the powertrain coolant pump
connector.
CAUTIONDO NOT push down on the red locking tab. Pull the tab away from the connector until the connector is unlocked, and then continue pulling to release the connector.
-
Remove the bolts (x4) that
attach the powertrain coolant pump to the supermanifold, and then remove the
pump from the supermanifold.
CAUTIONMake sure the inner and outer O-rings are removed with the coolant pump.Tip: Use of the following tool(s) is recommended:
- T20 socket
- 2 in extension
Install
- Remove and discard any o-rings or debris in the superbottle where the coolant pump will install.
- Make sure that new o-rings are installed onto the new coolant pump.
- Lubricate the o-rings with Silicone lubricant.
-
Position the coolant pump
with the connector tab toward the LH side of the vehicle, and then insert
the coolant pump into the supermanifold.
CAUTIONMake sure that the coolant pump is fully seated in the supermanifold.
- Hand-tighten the screws (x4) that attach the coolant pump to the superbottle.
-
Tighten the coolant pump
screws in a cross-pattern.Tip: Use of the following tool(s) is recommended:
- T20 socket
- 2 in extension
-
Connect the electrical
harness to the coolant pump connector, and then engage the locking
tab.
CAUTIONPush the red locking tab towards the connector to engage the locking mechanism. DO NOT push down or pull up on the red locking tab.
- Remove the coolant drain material from under the vehicle.
- Install the fresh intake duct. See Duct - Fresh Intake (Remove and Replace).
- Perform a cooling system vacuum refill. See Cooling System (Vacuum Refill).
- Connect 12V/LV power. See 12V/LV Power (Disconnect and Connect).
- Unlock the vehicle gateway. See Gateway (Unlock).
- On the touchscreen, tap the Service Mode "wrench" (at the bottom of the touchscreen UI), and then tap , and allow the routine to complete.
- Tap , and close once the routine is passed.
- Tap , and close once the routine is passed.
- Inspect the coolant level and make sure the fluid level is at the Max line.
- Install the cabin intake duct. See Duct - Cabin Intake (Remove and Replace).
- Install the rear underhood apron. See Underhood Apron - Rear (Remove and Replace).
- Exit Service Mode. See Service Mode.
- Raise the LH front window and close the LH front door.
