Prius doesn’t really require CCA from 12V battery for anything. So just checking the voltage after it has sat is (almost always) enough for Prius.
Your mechanic should know - It's a test of the battery's capacity. FWIW; A Prius will stump even a good mechanic, unless they keep up with current...
Hey there all! So I have had my 04 Prius for over a year now, and I did a reconditioning using Hybrid automotives grid charging system a year...
Did you load test your cells using the C240? If so, how?
Welcome to Prius Chat (y). Can you post a copy of the readout the dealer supplies with the codes? How many miles on your bosses Prius? How did...
Good points. Dr. Prius pointed at block 8, which load tested like this on Monday: before test after test voltage loss 15...
You haven't said to what your test relates. I did asked you to take two measurements: a) resting and 2) under load. Then charge your battery and...
Those voltages are not bad. Not perfect, but not bad either. Just a little lower than a new fully charged AGM battery. One question, was the test...
The ev range of the phv prius on the current epa test is actually 0. It is not conservative. Nissan used 100 versus 73 tested. Driving normally...
I just wanted to say "replace the battery because it can test good" is bad advice. 1. The prius doesn't put a load on the battery like regular...
It's not easy to do a load test but the Dr Prius app has one that you can try. The app is free and should work with your bluetooth adapter but...
11.84V under load is fine. 12.8V is what you'd expect without a load. They're correct, his old battery is fine. Those Optimas are built to...
I was happy with the turn out. There were a good number of people there and they seem fairly interested and had good questions. I also enjoyed the...
I am happy that you got that resolved. Clean connections makes such a difference in the Prius. I would also take 05PreeUs' suggestion and...
What ?? Don't understand that comment. The problem often IS that the test is done with equipment NOT designed for that size battery and...
Battery voltage is only one small measure of battery health. A 12v battery fully charged, (at rest) should read ~12.7vdc. The reality is that...
I didn't get to test drive a Prius until about a month after I'd placed my order. The vehicle I test-drove was a 2005 Seaside Pearl fully loaded...
Hi Tom, Not sure where you are getting that 35 % for a Otto engine. A Turbo diesel is with the typical 20:1 compression and expansion ratio is...
No it isn't. CCA "rating" is pretty meaningless but the test is: Note the resting voltage. Be sure it is within a fairly narrow acceptable...
Thor, Your Prius often will pull 100 amps from the HV battery which will result id a higher voltage difference than the one you see at a 5 amp...
