All of this ^

Based on everything noted, the pack is 99% likely water damaged and at this point unrecoverable. Resetting f123 will do nothing to fix this, either. (I also posted how to do this in another thread somewhere, btw... don't pay anyone to do this.)
This is almost certainly the result of water that has settled physically moving while you drive. Stop trying to drive it. If you're hitting 20 kOhm of iso (and keep in mind that's an average over a multi-second measurement), that's almost a direct short of HV to chassis. Just stop trying to use this car. That's actually well into unsafe-to-touch territory. I wouldn't even let my crew disassemble a pack with that low isolation resistance since it makes the unsafe-to-touch areas effectively the entire chassis. I'd maybe do it myself, very carefully because I've done hundreds of packs, in full HV protective gear if absolutely needed, but most likely would just dispose of it instead since in our experience there's not much to be recovered from such packs, if anything.
Sorry can't be of more help here, but a pack replacement is going to be your only option. Water damage, even if "dried out" leaves lasting damage to the cells... especially since you've been trying to utilize it despite the issue. Even if you manage to clear the isolation problem both physically and electronically, the pack won't last very long, if at all.
Tesla's refurbished replacement is your best option for water damaged packs, since they don't care about the condition of the core pack as long as there is a core pack. So I'd suggest going that route. Otherwise I'd just scrap the car and move on.
057 won't be able to give you much of anything for your core pack if water damaged, and I'd guess Recell would be in roughly the same boat there with their replacement offerings.
It's worth emphasizing: This pack is NOT safe to dismantle, and I would NOT suggest doing so.
I thought you said BMS F123 can't be reset.
Can we reset it & how can we do it for testing purposes?
