Warning
This procedure is a DRAFT. Although it has been validated, Warnings and Cautions might be missing. Follow safety requirements and use extreme caution when working on or near High Voltage systems and components. Provide corrections and feedback to ServiceDevelopment@teslamotors.com.

Procedure

  1. Inspect the condition of the leak test adapter O-ring, and replace if damaged, loose, or missing.
  2. Install the leak test adapter plug into the drive unit inverter logic connector.
  3. Inspect the condition of the leak test adapter O-ring, and replace if damaged, loose, or missing.
  4. Install the leak test adapter onto the drive unit inverter HV header.
  5. Connect the enclosure leak tester hose to the leak test adapter.

    Note
    Restrain the enclosure leak tester hose so that it will not tug the leak test adapter off of the drive unit inverter HV header.
  6. Turn valve P2 (left) and valve P1 (right) to the closed (vertical) position on the enclosure leak tester.
  7. Turn the knob on the regulator to the fully closed setting.
  8. Connect the supply compressed air line to the enclosure leak tester.
  9. Turn valve P1 (right) to the open (horizontal) position and slowly adjust the regulator so that 1 psi is displayed on the gauge.
  10. Slowly turn valve P2 (left) to the open (horizontal) position and allow air to enter the drive unit inverter.
  11. Allow 45 seconds for the pressure to stabilize.
  12. Turn valve P1 (right) to the close (vertical) position.
  13. Record the beginning pressure value and start a 60 second timer.
  14. After 60 seconds has elapsed, record the end pressure value, and then substract the end pressure value from the beginning pressure value: the acceptable pressure difference is 0.2 psi or less.
    • If the pressure difference is 0.2 psi or less, continue the procedure.
    • If the pressure difference is more than 0.2 psi, inspect the drive unit inverter for leaks, check the hose, adapter, and plug fittings, turn valve P2 (left) to the close (vertical) position, turn valve P1 (right) to the open (horizontal) position, check the regulator pressure and retest from step 9. If the difference is still more than 0.2 psi, refer to Toolbox article 6415200 (Tesla Internal) or 6415200 (External parties).
  15. Disconnect the supply compressed air line from the enclosure leak tester.
  16. Slowly turn valve P1 (right) to the open (horizontal) position, and allow air to exit the drive unit inverter.
  17. Disconnect the enclosure leak tester hose from the leak test adapter.
  18. Remove the leak test adapter from the drive unit inverter HV header.
  19. Remove the leak test adapter plug from the drive unit inverter logic connector.
