Pint X - Error yellow 17 hot or cold with normal temp : How to change battery thermistor?

Re: Error yellow 17 hot or cold with normal temp
Hello! :)
It seems my pint X is having the same issue than @agyas had more than three years ago now.
I am getting the hot or cold warning : "Your battery temperature is out of its safety range" when the temperature is normal.From what I understand from @Lemur 's answer to @agyas , one potential fix is to replace the four thermistors of the battery.
I would like to change them myself.
I found in this reddit thread someone giving the thermistor model for an XR.
Does someone know if the thermistor model is the same for a Pint X?
Do you have any other resources that could help me changing them on my own etc...?Thank you very much!

@rob-s It may be a bit of a tricky repair to pull the thermistors from the pack but if you’re up for it those should work fine on a pint-x. It’s a fairly basic 10k thermistor so not hard to find alternatives for if the one mentioned isn’t easy to get where you are.
Regarding getting inside the battery Mario did a teardown of a 3rd party battery that isn’t too dissimilar in structure that may help you in your journey.
Best of luck with the repair :)

@lia Thank you very much for your help :)
I'll order the thermistor you mentioned and see what i can do with the help of the video!
