sorry to hear about your issues; but on a 15 year pack that bakes in the AZ sun - replacing 1 in 28 batteries is like playing wack-a-mole. The...
Yeah: the 12 volt doesn't crank the Prius engine, but CCA (or CA, or a few others) still are good indicators of the battery's health, and what the...
California now mandates idle, cruise, and load at high RPM tests on a dyno. A clean idle no longer is a guarantee of a pass. One of my cars...
CQ3 charger arrived. The battery is still complete but the modules have just been disconnected and are sitting now for about 1 week. Open circuit...
Did you: Load test the modules - A good cell can deliver a high current for a short time and recover to nearly the same voltage when the load...
I'm not sure I understand your post. For someone who confesses to being lazy, you have outlined a lot of work the Prolong charger/discharger is...
I did not say that CCA doesn't matter (at all). I said that voltage is more important, under a moderate load. Although not really common, an old...
Re insert the orange plug. Push the plug in flip up the handle and then slide the handle down till it locks. Measuring the battery modules does...
You don't think just using the high or low filament would provide enough load?
i would run a battery health check with dr. prius app, and do a load test on the 12 volt. did you bleed all the air out of the coolant loop?
tech stream can do a load test, possibly dr. prius app. or you can find procedure for individual modules in the rebuilding threads, as well as...
load test will show you the bad cells on tech stream. or you can try dr prius or hybrid assistant apps. any corrosion inside the case or...
Hi Prius family! Back at it again -- Red Triangle came back a week ago so this time I'm load testing and would like to check in for your feedback...
You could. If you want to judge more wisely, just check the 12 volt battery before starting some morning: if it shows under 12, replace it....
The author strongly implied early in the article his loaded test vehicle was $30k: "Prius Five topping out at $30,035 ... that's the model I...
Thank you for your quick replies, folks. I already use Dr. Prius with an OBDLink LX, but no subcodes are reported, just P0A80. Anyway, as far as...
a free load test at an auto parts store. if it is good, drive it until the lights come back on. then have the trouble codes read by a dealer,...
Here are some videos I posted on YouTube here’s two of them on Prius [MEDIA] Second video is on performing a load test [MEDIA]
if you want to do it on the cheap, get a hobby charger and balance all the cells before putting it back together. you have to load test the...
The mechanic also tested the cold cranking amps of the battery from the prius not from a diesel truck so it should easily carry that load above...
