I'm surprised that the owner's manual hasn't been updated with this change. What's the best way to jump start it then? I got my Rivian shipped to me with the 12V battery dead. The screen works for maximum a minute then shuts off. I have connected the rear wire harness to a battery with no luck. So I followed the instructions to try the secondary battery only to realize the connections are different from the manual. Also, I found the capacitor positive cable disconnected, I assume to preserve it while it's shipped.
Why doesn’t the site show how many mah this lithium battery is? Does anyone have this spec data? I know the original was 18mah but how much more capacity does this lithium provide?
How come your tub bends back so easily in the center. Mine is as stiff as a rock and not easy to get at the battery. It looks like you clipped something in the middle
Don't think it is a good idea to show pulling up the old battery by the plus and negative post simultaneously...someone might forget you had the insulated gloves.
I got 2025 R1T. No battery where it is shown in this video. Hopefully you can do an update. I'll keep looking.

If I remember the manual correctly, you’re not supposed to jump or jump others with EVs.

Rivian wants me to replace the ohmma 12v back to there’s. What should I do?
Does the vehicle need any prep prior to removing the battery, such as shutting it down, disconnecting the fireman's loop, etc?

Who can help me to delete 12v error? I changed battery but error left(
Do we need to tender if leaving sit for more than 7-8 days? If so how?
But lithium batteries suck in freezing weather, right?
all vehicles suck in freezing weather

3 times the cost , not worth saving 15 pounds.
Rivian should follow Tesla’s lead and install a lithium battery at the factory.
