    2010 Prius 3rd Gen with 160K, Im getting P3021, but my OBD meter doesn't have any info about it, with online searching it's saying block 11 is weak, I took the picture of battery, someone kindly tell me which is the block 11 on it? I put the arrow on it, IDK if its the right block or not? becasue when Im reading the volt its showing me 7.4 on each cell

    when you test the module or block voltage, it has to be under load so you can see the actual voltage the car sees when you're driving

    tech stream can do a load test, possibly dr. prius app. or you can find procedure for individual modules in the rebuilding threads, as well as module block numbering.
