Abstract: This disclosure details thermal management systems for thermally managing electrified vehicle components. An exemplary thermal management system may be configured to direct a coolant through a battery bypass loop that bypasses a traction battery pack based on an amount of heat rejection into the coolant from a water charge air cooler.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a wire harness assembly for routing a wire harness through a vehicle seat back having an active head restraint system. The assembly can comprise a movable member configured to move relative to a seat frame in a vehicle fore-aft direction and can have a sleeve with a first end configured to receive a headrest. A harness guide is included with a guide tube and an attachment member that is connected to the guide tube and to the movable member, the guide tube having a first open end and a second open, and a guide passage that extends through the guide tube from the first open end to the second open end. A second end of the sleeve opposite the first end is located within the attachment member and configured such that the sleeve and the attachment member move with the movable member.

Abstract: A headrest support rod includes a shaft portion and a support portion. The shaft portion has a first end, a second end, and an annular wall. The annular wall defines a cavity that extends from the first end to the second end. The support portion is formed adjacent to the second end of the shaft portion. At least part of the support portion is a continuous extension of the annular wall of the shaft portion. The shaft portion and the support portion are unitarily formed.

Abstract: An electrical coupling for electrically linking at least one battery to an actuator in a vehicle includes a housing having a base including at least two spaced apart connectors. A busbar has a first conductive portion, a second conductive portion spaced from the first conductive portion, and a fuse portion connecting the first and second conductive portions. The first conductive portion has at least two spaced apart junctions and the second conductive portion has at least one junction. The busbar is sized and configured to fit in the housing in at least a first position and a second position in which the busbar is rotated relative to the first position.
