For funsies... now that it's back together... the noise is a bit different, but I have only driven a few miles and there's a new popping noise, so...
Too late to edit, but as an update for the archive... The method from the repair manual @Mendel Leisk uploaded (previously linked) appears to...
Edit: Now, after setting the piston over the hole, I see there really isn't much difference between the video instructions and those from the...
I haven't tried reconditioning battery modules myself, but there have been some on this forum who have done it. Maybe run a search and see if it...
Earlier, I searched this forum and watched Eric the Car Guy, plus a couple of random YouTubers show how to rebuild non-Prius caliper pistons,...
I'm not a Toyota parts kind of guy. Maybe if the local dealer were to put his prices online, I'd consider their product when shopping for parts,...
Edit: Never mind. I see. When I went to compress it, the piston fell out. It looks like I probably didn't need a new caliper until I had my...
The reply from @ChapmanF helped me understand what should be moving then after trying both sides with the pads in place -- the only movement like...

I've thought about burning it, but I'm worried that could damage the plug and then I'd have that mess. And yeah, I haven't had the cover off, but...
