I'm working on a 2005 Accord, it's pretty similar to the Insights.

A couple days ago I did a BCM tap diagram for the HAH1. You can measure tap voltages to get an idea of overall battery health.

It looks like it will be possible to deep discharge the battery using the taps, but I haven't actually *DONE* it yet, but maybe I get to that today.

The colours on the diagram are the wire colours. There's a 435 ohm resistor between the bottom two pins. This is ALSO where the pack gets split when you turn off the big circuit breaker. I suspect there may be 435 ohm resistors on all of the taps, same as the G1 Insight, but I haven't definitively determined that yet. Someone else who pulled a HAH1 battery would probably know.
