Lexus GS 450h orange hose

[Ragzv6]

Hi again guys,

so upon closer inspection I have noticed one of the orange hose that is connected to what I think is the Battery is split. Does anyone know the purpose of this and is it as simple as pulling off and replacing??

i have attached a picture of the culprit u can see it squashed on the bottom clip

Those are not hoses they are high voltage cables carrying around 300 volts dc. If the cover is split it can be repaired with electrical insulation tape. Only work on repairs with the safety orange connector removed in the boot. If you do not know what you are doing leave them well alone.

Do not mess with this. It's your main high voltage Battery cable (not a hose). If you don't know what you're doing, it could kill you.
