Discharging the Hybrid Capacitor
WARNING:To prevent serious personal injury, fire and/or damage, ensure the capacitor
has been properly discharged before servicing the vehicle and/or system
components.
1. Disconnect the power wire going to the
capacitor module from the battery.
2. Connect one blub end to the
capacitor Negative(-) through fuse.
3. Connect the other one bulb end to the
capacitor Po).
4. When connection is made, the capacitor
is discharging
5. When the voltage meter readout is close
to zero, the capacitor is discharged .
On the top of the Hybrid Capacitor is a blue LED display
that will show the current voltage of the system while it is
on.
