    The relay is there for a reason and it would be a bad idea to jump around it. Find the actual problem and fix it.

    No, the hybrid control system has self tests that specifically check function of the contactors every time it goes to ready up. If something doesn't function as expected, the ecu will shut the system down.

    You can find decent looking used parts on ebay $20-40 or so.

    Still can’t get this car to move. Now I’m not getting 12 volts to transmission ECU. On the connector 1 is supposed to be the b+ and I’m not getting any power. Used this diagram. Any other way to check for open connections. IMG_3652.jpeg IMG_3651.jpeg IMG_3646.png IMG_3647.png
