While the traction battery can last a long time, Electric Vehicles still rely on Auxiliary 12v batteries to maintain vital systems should the traction pack (High Voltage Pack) need to disconnect for whatever reasons. These especially maintain Brakes & Steering in the case of issues!
On average, these Lead-Acid Deep Cycle batteries will last 4-5 years (Of course some exceptions to the rule can happen). Thankfully, Tesla's systems kindly notify us in advance when it detects when this 12v Lead Acid Auxiliary battery is nearing the end of life. I will cover the level of failure in another video. In this video, we will have a How-To! It's so easy a KMAN Can do it!!!
In a do-over, I could accomplish the replacement on my car in less than 15 minutes. It should take you 15-30 minutes to perform this task in most cases. Older Model S's, 2012-2014 with No Autopilot hardware, this task could take 30minutes to multiple hours due to a much more difficult to reach battery placement.

I was previously quoted by Tesla about $450 to replace the 12v. This time around, I couldn't get ahold of Tesla parts, so I ordered from the Famous GRUBER MOTORS! They have a DIRECT REPLACEMENT Battery for the Model S and Model X at a FRACTION OF THE PRICE OF TESLA!!! (And they ship quickly and easy to get a hold of!)
