Tesla Model 3 – 2024+ Rescue Sheet
A complete de-power of the vehicle cuts power to the low voltage system and high voltage systems. A de-power disables all electrical systems, as well as basic vehicle functionality such as moving seats and interacting with the touchscreen. Note also that cutting the cables of the low voltage bat- tery alone doesn’t necessarily disable the low voltage system due to system redundancies. You must cut the First Responder Loop as well to ensure that the vehicle is de-powered.
- Access the First Responder Loop under the hood or behind the rear quarter side window.
- Double cut the First Responder Loop and then remove the cut section.
- Double cut the negative cables to the low voltage battery.
- Wait 2 minutes for the vehicle to finish de-powering.
