VW ID3 Diagnostic Report

In this job, the customer arrived with their VW ID3 after an accident which triggered the airbags. The car was trailer-collected as it would not accept charge or enter drive. Our diagnostics confirmed the ID3 pyrotechnic fuse replacement requirement: the internal safety fuse (SX-7 alongside the J840 battery regulation control unit) had fired. The battery pack was removed and the internal pyrofuse module and associated control unit were accessed and verified.

VW ID3 Repairs

Repair work entailed:
  • Safely de-energising the high-voltage system and removing the battery pack
  • Removing the battery top-lid, accessing block connectors and verifying none were damaged
  • Replacing the pyrotechnic fuse module (including the J840 and SX-7 unit) and resealing along with full integrity checks
  • Reassembling, re-fitting and performing full system reset including ADAS/geometry calibration, a complete road-test and full charge verification

Resolution

After the specialist repair, the ID3 pyrotechnic fuse replacement was successful. The vehicle accepted charge again, the high-voltage system unlocked, all crash-related fault codes cleared (including airbag and radar faults), and the ID3 was returned in full working order and road-worthy condition.
“10/10 Service! Thanks to the Kev and the team, I was able to get my VW ID3 back on the road after it had been in an accident. They went far and beyond with all the support they provided to the project. They should be your first thought when it comes to EV battery repairs”
