Electrical Precautions
General
Avoid getting grease on electrical components and connectors. Grease collects
dirt, which can cause electrical tracking (short circuits) or high resistance.

12V Battery
The 12V battery used in Model 3 is similar to the lead acid batteries used in
most internal combustion engine vehicles. Lead acid batteries are sometimes
referred to as "flooded" because they are fi
