hi all,

I got Error 1554: VMS: Not receiving VDS version number.
The wiki says:
Car can drive but a full RESET is needed: In the front hood pull battery fuse and in the trunk pull the orange ESS Main switch. Then wait 3 minutes.

But where do I find the battery fuse in the front hood? And what is the orange ESS Main Switch that needs to be pulled? I can't seem to find them. Thanks in advance for assisting! I already tried a different method I read about: pull blue and black cables from VMS. It resetted the VMS, but didn't do much good.


Note: it's a 2.5

The orange ESS service disconnect is located on the drivers rear section of the ESS, exactly as spaceballs had indicated:

When the disconnect is pulled (cap removed) it looks like this:
