    Im looking at buying this 2007 Prius on Facebook marketplace that needs a traction battery replacement. It’s throwing the p0A80 along with these throttle position sensor and front speed sensor codes. Is it possible that the bad traction battery is causing these other codes to be thrown or are these isolated issues?

    Well you want a look at your two wheel sensors that are suspect and see if anything is unplugged broken The sensors are ripped out of there plugs where they plug in something If not if you had a more capable scanner you might see that there are can bus communication problems. And if that's the case a more capable scanner will usually show that or I know the Toyota software will A lot of times when there are power issues generally of the 12 volt type not the HV battery communication problems rear their ugly head and all of the computers in the car aren't communicating with each other and so then you get these communication errors which you may not see on this type of handheld scanner If the car still starts and can drive then you should be able to see what the 12 volt is really showing ready and then what it's showing when it's sitting off there's any discrepancies there you want to get that taken care of because that can wreak havoc on all kinds of the computer systems and communications in the car and how it runs drives and codes
