Hi, I’m Edd. Welcome to my workshop. I love exploring things, fixing things and making things. “Edd China is the quintessential British eccentric; TV presenter, inventor, engineering product designer and Wheeler Dealers’ favourite mechanic. Fixing things, Engineering Product Design, innovation and mechanical engineering are what make him tick. Always keen to connect things that aren't normally connected, he created the World's first street legal driving sofa in 1998; the ‘Casual Lofa’, which got him his first Guinness World Record for “Fastest Furniture” at 87mph! Since then he’s gone on to set many other records, most recently; World's Fastest Electric Ice Cream Van revolutionising the industry by developing the World's first all electric ice cream van.” Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WorkshopDiaries AskEdd Questions: [email protected] More info: www.eddchina.com Partner info for Workshop Diaries: www.workshopdiaries.com https://youtube.com/@eddchina

Should you pull the plug on your EV and its pricey battery just because of a fault? Absolutely not! Fixing it might seem electrifyingly complicated, but don’t worry—you won’t be shocked to learn that with the right steps, it’s entirely doable. In this video, I shed some light on how to safely replace a faulty battery component. A while back, I charged over to Bosch to get the current insights on what you can and can’t do, along with the specialised training and tools needed to tackle the high-powered parts of today’s EVs.
