So we are going to have to wait until some owner exceeds his/her warranty period, and has the guts to take one apart and post pictures.
I know I will be taking mine apart if/when I reach 150,000 miles and there is no chance of me loosing warranty status.
Just for Gary ( And I know he has already seen this... )
Under PinPoint Test LTC B1016 - Jump Start Control Module
Under "Normal Operation" it states the low voltage battery is used in an 8 minute process to HEAT and step up the voltage of the HV battery pack.
I have the CD-ROM so there's not an actual page number, but it is under Section 414-03.

John, PinPoint Test L: DTC B1016 - Jump Start Control Module Fault must have been changed in the '05 manual to read: Under "Normal Operation" it states in section 14-03 page 31 "the jump start button is momentarily pressed, the jump start control module within the HVTB uses the low voltage battery during a 10-minute process (8-minute charge plus 2 minute rest) to step up the low voltage in an effort to charge the high voltage battery to the point where it may start the engine. This page is also where it talks about room temperture I've been quoting. Your '04 CD-ROM maynot be for the first '05 model FEH, but an earlier CD that was available that was changed in the printed version of the '05 FEH Workshop Manuals.
John, I would call Helms and ask for the updated '05 CD ROM since the '04 CD is incorrect.
Thegreatescape, my '05 manual reads the same as yours under section 414-03 Description And Operation on page 414-03-2.
