Do not attempt to clean the HV battery cooling fan while it is installed. Doing so may cause dirt/dust to enter the battery case. Failure to secure the fan blades while cleaning the HV battery fan assembly may result in electronic circuit failure due to over-turning.
When the repair is done, reprogram the ECU with the latest calibration.
