Dear readers. I have a Prius from 2004. Recently I've got a std 3 alarms on the panel which stated that hybrid battery fault. Toyota service did a "deep" battery analysis and stated: "1 cell fault found. Battery needs to be replaced" I read a lot of forums and watched some videos @youtube. There is a lot of tricks have to be done to complete cell(s) change successfully. I'm wonder if there is somebody in Ireland who can assist and guide cell(s) change for my battery? I'd appreciate their time and effort respectively. Thanks Alex (Sanila)
There are no tricks involved in module swaps. 1. Identify your failed modules in your pack 2. Buy "good" replacement modules 3. Recharge and balance the pack when done. 4. Enjoy your Prius again
Thanks for your feedback. I'm a bit worried about 3rd point. Could you, pls, advise/share the most efficient way as there are few different available in internet. Thanks a mil
You can get all the charge and balance information at hybridautomotive.com. They have a prolong charger that does what #3 is needing.
