    I would hope in 165 pages it would have everything :).

    Just a bit of light weekend reading(y).

    The second gen Repair Manual is much more complete. I took a look at third gen Repair Manual for comparison: it does not go into anywhere near the amount of detail, regarding opening the battery right up, basically just what's needed to swap batteries. Which is ok I guess, if you're just swapping batteries. The illustrations and degree of detail in the second gen Manual are much better too.

    When I spent the $15 for a 2 day subscription to tech info, I was a focused lad on the 2010 Prius and 2017 RX450h ;).

    Now having time to review the results, I’m noticing similar facets:(.

    But the bulk pull is done and if needed, I can go back for a more focused search:).

    Seems like certain facets should be standard and could be reused:cool:.

    Yeah before working on HV it might be a good idea to read through some instructions. (Under $30 for access to Toyota tech info)
    Maybe get some protective equipment. (Life is worth the $60)
    Maybe get some code reading/clearing tools that can also read HV battery info. (Cost less than $75)
