    Hi! my 2012 Prius two has the yellow triangle, engine light, and traction control on. After checking Techstream I found that blocks 7 and 8 had lower voltages than the rest. The car currently has almost 200k miles, I would like to replace the modules first before swapping the whole battery. does that seem like a good choice? also are there other modules that I should replace/rebalance?

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, replace bad cells and then balance the pack. Replacing cells is the cheapest way to go. Heads up your posts are moderated for the first five posts.
