Wow nice! Congrats.

I agree. Replace the battery first. The dealer might give you a new one under warranty but it wont be without a hassle. Spend the $160 and get the one that Tony recommends. I did

That sucks. Im sorry. I think I have heard this before and it was the battery. I am not positive though. Hopefully you have a warranty?

I think you already received some good answers on the Facebook page. I liked the idea of taking it apart to try to replace the screen itself. Seems like a good and affordable option.

It helps if you list a price and contact info.

I use a basic Craftsman jack. But it doesn’t go high enough so I built a platform with 2 layers of 2x4’s

I put these on 2 days ago. https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/carquest-wearever-platinum-professional-ceramic-brake-pads-front-4-pad-set-pxd1211h/10146316-P?cm_mmc=ET-_-Trans-_-Confirmation-_-General#utm_source=et&utm_medium=trans&utm_campaign=confirmation&utm_content=general I picked them up...

Anyone happen to know if we have the same pads as the V6 or the 4 cyl Rav4? I guess the pads are different.

Did a little more work tonight. For the record I am so sick of working in 15 degree weather, crawling around under my car with a winter jacket and knit hat that constantly falls over my eyes.... I am really hoping spring arrives before summer this year but at this point I would accept fall.

Interesting. I didn't know they could do this. I still dont like it though. Id have to try to thread on a tiny fuse wire to each cell. That doesn't seem easier. Id rather tap it quickly with my spot welder and move on to the next. Also, I do plan on doing both sides. If I only put a fuse on one...

I wont be soldering. I am going to be spot welding. Soldering hasnt proven to be harmful but I didnt like the idea either. Not to mention soldering will take much longer than spot welding. And when your doing both sides of 3700 cells, time matters.

Watch the video in the very first post. I am going to be using 6 awg ground wire instead of bus bars but the same idea applies. His fuse wires are also quite short which increases the amperage needed before they blow. I am going to make sure I dont make them too short. In testing, it could take...

No cell fuses like the Tesla modules though. Fine for a small bike that you can jump off of but in a car with high amperage demands you need cell level fusing in your modules. It would be nice if I could put it together like his though. It would be soooo much easier!

I needed a way to run wires through the floor to the R.E.T. I found this online but it wasnt large enough for 2 awg wires. So I made one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0111RNZDY/?coliid=IWUT0XUXC4D2N&colid=KP6FZYXMMC1N&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it This is going under the rear of the car to pass...

Fiberglass battery box.

Here is the Rav4 Battery pack. Pack power holes

I thought I should post an update. I havent in a bit. I currently have 3 projects that I have been working on. I had to finally focus on one because they are each pretty expensive endeavors. Here are my 3 projects. 1. As this thread shows, I want to add an additional battery pack to my Rav...

How many miles and what’s the condition? How much are you asking?
