Just rescued a 2005 Prius from a repo yard.

wish me luck its been sitting over a year...

got her running and moving but red triangle of death is one, I know I will have to change a cell or two.

the smart key battery leaked inside but got that working again with some cleaning, shocked it held its programing all that time.

can someone tell me the best way to prep the fiberglass part across the window on the hatchback for paint.

thanks!

 

forgot to ask, I see theres a recall on the water pump in the charging system, does the code have to be stored in the computer or will the fix them all for free even without the codes...thanks again

 

thanks, once I get the battery fixed up Im going to take it to the local dealer..I heard if there was no code they had the option to refuse to fix it but I will call before I drive the 30 miles.
