Does the cover over the Gen 2 battery connections not have a little orange doohickey that needs to be released using the handle from the removed service plug? Gen 1 and Gen 3 have that. Those compression rods are important to keep the modules from bulging, and the manual gives a wait period (four hours, if I remember right) from the last time the battery was actively being discharged or charged, before you start to loosen those rods. If you've been working slowly to get the battery out of the car, probably enough time has passed by the time you get to that step, but if you have just shut the car off and worked quickly, it might be smart to wait a bit longer before loosening those. He gives 60 inch pounds as the torque for the module terminal nuts and mounting bolts. Can somebody check that? 48 is what I think I remember. He is wearing rubber gloves, but they don't look like actual high-voltage gloves. They're probably ok for casual use on a safe battery, especially if he tests them for pinholes first, by blowing them up, the same way you would a real HV glove. When he used his code reader, he didn't have a P0AA6 code, so the battery was relatively safe to work on. I would like him to have mentioned that if there was a P0AA6-612 showing (P3009 in Gen 1), that battery is not as safe to work on, and would deserve extra precautions, maybe even legit HV gloves.
