Warning
Only technicians who have been trained in High Voltage Awareness and have completed all required certification courses (if applicable) are permitted to perform this procedure. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and insulating HV gloves with a minimum rating of class 0 (1000V) must be worn any time a high voltage cable is handled. Refer to Tech Note TN-15-92-003, "High Voltage Awareness Care Points" for additional safety information.

Removal

  1. Open the charge port.
  2. Disconnect 12V power. See Disconnect 12V Power.
  3. Perform the charge port voltage check. See Charge Port Voltage Check.
  4. Remove the LH trunk trim. See Trim - Rear Trunk - Side - LH (Remove and Replace).
  5. Release the 12V harness connection from the charge port.
  6. Remove the grounding bracket by releasing the nut that secures it to the body (torque 6 Nm).
  7. Disconnect the harness that connects the taillight to the charge port.
  8. Remove the cover from the cable connector by using a trim tool or similar non-conductive tool to bend the 3 tabs that secure the cover to the cable connector.

    CAUTION
    Do not over-tighten the bolts during installation to prevent water leaks inside the trunk area.
  2. Before installing the cable connector, close the charge port door and verify that it is 0-2 mm underflush to the body. If necessary, turn the screw to adjust the magnet that secures the charge port door.
  3. When reinstalling the cable connector, ensure that the HV cables and data harness do not touch or interfere with the latch on the inside of the charge port.
  4. When securing the cable connector to the charge port, loosely install all 3 bolts, then tighten them in the order shown.
  5. Update the vehicle firmware. See Firmware Update.
  6. Connect a laptop to the diagnostic port of the vehicle, and then use Toolbox 3 to locally connect to the vehicle. See Toolbox 3 (Connect and Disconnect).
  7. Unlock the vehicle gateway for diagnostic communication. See Gateway Unlock.
  8. Perform Charge Port Latch Calibration.
    • For Intel/Tegra vehicles: In Toolbox 3, click the Actions tab, type "Charge Port Latch Calibration" into the search field, click PROC_CP_X_LATCH-CALIBRATIONvia Toolbox: (link), click Run, and allow the routine to complete.
    • For Intel vehicles only: On the touchscreen, tap the Service Mode "wrench" (at the bottom of the touchscreen UI), and then tap High Voltage > Charging > Charge Port Latch Calibration > Run, and allow the routine to complete.
  9. Perform Charge Port Door Calibration.
    • For Intel/Tegra vehicles: In Toolbox 3, click the Actions tab, type "Charge Port Door Calibration" into the search field, click PROC_CP_X_DOOR-SENSOR-CALIBRATIONvia Toolbox: (link), click Run, and allow the routine to complete.
    • For Intel vehicles only: On the touchscreen, tap the Service Mode "wrench" (at the bottom of the touchscreen UI), and then tap High Voltage > Charging > Charge Port Door Calibration > Run, and allow the routine to complete.
  10. Perform a charging session and make sure that charging proceeds as intended.
