    If there's anything we've been trying to say over and over and over about P0AA6, it's that it's not battery out to see if there's a battery leak.

    It's scan tool out to see what the INF code is. If it's 612, then you look in the battery. If it's one of the others, then, well, you look there.

    If you haven't got a scan tool to see the INF code, you can look up and do what gen 1 Prius owners used to do when they got the equivalent code (it was P3009 in gen 1, and didn't give you the handy INF codes).

    Understood not necessarily battery out
    Alright so I need to check INF codes.
    That's not possible with Dr prius or torque app?

    If not I'll just pick up a scan tool that can do it. And recommendations
