    @jerrymildred do you know if the Gen 4 voltage sensor harness (a.k.a "wire frame #2" but for Gen3) is plug and play in Gen 3? @TMR-JWAP recommended to replace this when upgrading but I cannot find a new harness online to purchase.

    I don't know, but I doubt it. They should be available from Toyota. I've seen a few comments here and there on PC about getting them that way for a reasonable price.

    To help answer your question I just found this video of Jack from Nexcell installing his modules in a gen4 pack:



    The video gives you a good view of the Gen4 voltage sensing harness and it doesn't look anything like the Gen3 harness... Also I checked out images of Toyota's Gen4 Lithium pack and that harness looks even more unrecognizable.
