CG100 Repair Mercedes 48V Hybrid Battery

Here is the tutorial on repairing the Mercedes Benz 48 volt mild hybrid battery.

 

01: 48V Battery Benefits
By using a 48-volt electrical system in new Mercedes-Benz vehicles, the car can be powered solely on the electrical system battery instead of using the drivetrain batteries. In fact, these drivetrain batteries can be removed altogether, making the vehicle safer overall because there aren’t dangerous amounts of electricity traveling through the car.
