Remove

Note: There are two types of HV battery cover gaskets: an older platter perimeter gasket, and a newer penthouse perimeter gasket. These are referred to as platter type and penthouse type. This procedure removes both types, but installs only the penthouse type gasket.

  1. Remove the HV battery. See HV Battery (RWD) (Remove and Install).
  2. Remove and discard the HV battery cover gasket.
    Note: When removing the platter type gasket, peel the gasket to the side, at a 90° angle from the adhesive line.
