Testing the saticks in a civic pack
|
Took a big piece of single sided circuit board material and cut it to fit the far side of the civic pack. I located the required 10 interconnect points,using the orange interconnect plate and using a dremel tool,made an area around each point that was isolated from the rest of the plate.
drilled a close fitting hole for the pogo spring pins, and after determining the proper depth, soldered the 10 pins to the board. I connected the pin points to the multimeter harness, to complete the stick level connections, and using heat shrink, and hot glue made sure that each point was thoroughly insulated.
Now I can cycle the pack while watching each stick voltage, and also using the discharger and the special test mode, determine the relative condition of all the sticks.
