You need to fully charge the 12v battery and test it (with a car battery charger for about 10 hours). If it fails a load test, you'll need to buy...
No need to test. It's very easy to calculate based on a given load. There are a few posts explaining this calculation. Tom
Principle is the same, but the load tester doesn't need to be very sophisticated or powerful, see here: Gen II Prius Individual Battery Module...
I assume I have to charge overnight? The car only has access to electricity for a short period of time (30 min - ~50 min) via an electric "pole"....
This will help you with load testing modules: Prolong® Battery Module Load Tester User Guide - Hybrid Automotive You also might consider our...
EPA sets the guideline but only tests ~15% of the vehicles. The automakers generally carry out the test. I simply think that Ford front loaded...
A module with one (or more) failed cells can easily be identified by it being 1.2V less than the other modules using just OCV (open circuit...
Possible to have more context instead of musing? How exactly did you pinpoint which cells to replace with Gen 3 batteries? Have you done a load...
No it isn't. It might give a false "good" indication, but it it FAILS you can be pretty sure that it is indeed BAD.
Hello Prius brothers and sisters, I performed a little research on how to load test the modules from the HV battery pack. Unfortunately, I...

Load test can be done without removing the battery. Pretty much a slam dunk what the verdict would be, just saying.
you sold a Prius for a Civic? I see. I don't know, I'm not a Civic guy cause I find Civics to be cheap (although this new 06 is really quite an...
Good question! Based on the trouble code, or actual testing? Not many jurisdictions require physical testing for NOx under realistic load...
Sorry, LOAD testing the 12v in a Prius is a fool's errand. These batteries are NOT "starting" batteries in terms of size or capacity so testing...
Thanks. Not sure of the load test. I would think that a purchased module is ready to be installed. I do not think Toyota or other shop would do a...
thr charging voltage of the 12 volt battery isn't really helpful unless there is a charging problem. the best test for the 12 volt is done with a...
Spot on. The ONLY way to test a battery.... is AT THE BATTERY. Voltage is an indication of "potential", but capacity (A-Hr) is what you really...
When I test drove the Gen4, I had a Two with no navigation. I am currently test driving an Avalon and it's fully loaded. One thing I like about...
Perhaps some of you' all might get instrumentation reporting the MG1, MG2, and transmission coolant temperature. Then do an A-B-A test towing with...
