Main 144 VDC Battery Upgrade
I just got my 2001 Insight back from the dealer with a new 144 VDC battery. I gleamed as much information as I could from the Honda technician. Here is what I found:
The 144 VDC Battery is replaced, not cell by cell, but as a "black box."
The newly installed battery has NO warranty whatsoever. :roll:
Replacement instructions from Honda required two new charger unit upgrades. These modules are "supposedly" charging the 144 VDC battery at a different rate than that original set for the car.
Sincerely,
