Separate names with a comma.
Has the ICE Coolant been drained and refilled recently? If the coolant loop wasn't purged of trapped air, the Coolant Valve can get stuck as the...
The Prius 12v battery is a common problem due to its low capacity and the nature of the Prius 12v charging system (slow). It is easy to perform a...
All Prii are sensitive to wheel alignment and soft sidewall tires and will tend to "wander" at highway speed if either problem exists. The first...
This is a reference to the same device I linked to above at: Traction Battery Health Monitor for Toyota Prius - OpenElectrons.com JeffD
No, UART is saying that the car adapts to your driving style as you use it. If you do a full ECU reset (disconnect the 12v battery), then it has...
about $10 for high tech curb feelers. [IMG] JeffD
Depending on the amount of additional battery capacity added (The Highlander adds a second HV battery) it shoould add $3000 to $5000 and the...
The HV battery health can be determined by reading out the module pair voltages and series resistances. You can do this with either a "Prius...
Our Prii have an eCVT, not a CVT. They are very different so a generic CVT ATF is NOT the right stuff to use. JeffD
If this discussion is about the wiring to/from the HV disconnect relays, I have a disassembled 2004 HV battery case with all of the cabling and...
You are judging a Prius AWD as if it would be a mechanical system that adds weight and mechanical friction. Toyota uses an eAWD system which just...
Even the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) has Turned green. They published the same arguments in the "IEEE Spectrum"...
Just continue to use the AC to keep you and your HV battery cool even though it does lower your MPG in hot weather. Check that the HV battery vent...
Julie, I would get your Prius to Avi (Avi's Advanced Auto Homepage). He has been helpful to many Prius owners here on PC. I had heard that...
OK, enough arguing. Rust on the rotor surfaces will cause some braking noise, somewhat faster pad wear, and harsher transitions between...
There is already a technique to disable regeneration and enable friction braking; It's called neutral. See my reply to Bill a few messages above....
It is better to get a Prius up to 25-30 MPH, put it in neutral to disable regeneration and lightly apply your brakes to clean off the rotor...
Or you can just go to: Toyota Online Owners Manuals and Warranty and download one for free as a set of 33 chapter by chapter pdf's. JeffD
If the car is drivable, you are 5 1/2 hours drive from Steve at Autobeyours.com and Cincinnati Hybrid | A Division of Overbeck Auto is a ReInVolt...
Do you also log the HV battery current at the time of the module pair (not cell) voltages (14 module pairs in a Gen2 or Gen3). JeffD
