New Toyota pump still has POA93

Which obd2 device and or app are you currently using to get DTC P0A93?

 

Have you already followed step by step the workup below?

If memory serves, you should have additional warning lights being displayed for DTC P0A93.

You've installed the gen2 PIDs for Torque?

P0A93 has two related INFs or detailed codes. This may help in narrowing your focus a bit. Besides being able to report the INFs for various DTCs, techstream can help with diagnostics via the freeze frame data as well. There are other handhelds that may do the same.

How long did it take for DTC P0A93 to reappear?

 

I think it's the! That comes up anytime I get the red triangle and that! I can almost guarantee my water pump isn't running in the left fender well and when I go out to take a look and touch the top of my metal inverter it's quite warm sometimes I can turn the car off and turn it back on put my hand on the pump and it's running I've been through five or six like this. Now I've changed to a different pump that probably will never fail it's made for constant duty I guess

 

If you have the pro version, then you may not need to load the vehicle specific PIDs.

What speed were you driving at for 10 miles?

How many times have you replaced the inverter coolant pump, and was this expensive pump purchase at a local dealership?

There is a thread here, let me find it : Gen2 Prius: Custom PIDs for Torque (Android App) with formulas | PriusChat

'Parameter IDs'

 

So are you waiting for the triangle to just disappear after you change the pump or do you reset the OBD2 system or what have you I've never waited for the triangle to go away after I replace the pump I just reset and clear the mess it's the only code I have generally and go to driving again as long as that pump stays on that triangle is not coming back for this code I don't know about the fans not running and all that nonsense in the in the workup for this code but generally I've got the car moving so quickly that fans don't matter we're going down the road 55 miles an hour with an open front end so we got plenty of air the rest of it is not plenty of water movement and I think I've solved that problem now with another pump that doesn't belong there The water will jump out of the tank.

 

I have tech stream on a CF-19 Panasonic toughbook that I bought from a dealership that went out of business that is very cumbersome to all the time trying to be lugging around and using. I also own an Innova 3100 series handheld scanner available at Walmart . In most of my Toyotas the Innova scanner has been able to read most codes and ABS codes and clear those said codes so I use it a lot and if I have to deal with Prius specific codes then I'll log the tec stream out. On my other Toyotas I don't seem to need the tech stream very often only on the Prius. And with either one I just follow the prompts on the screen generally you can't have the engine running when you're clearing the code you got to have the car on and the scanner connected in your hand whatever and then you push the backwards button after you hit the clear the codes button and it will tell you to wait a minute and then it will tell you if the engine is off it was successful if the engine's running it may tell you that it can't clear the codes while the engine's running. You will see the triangle in the exclamation point turn off if you're watching the dash not your handheld then I generally unplug the handheld return the car off restart the car back out of the driveway I also hear my pump running I know if the pump's running the code for the inverter is not coming back on unless the fuse blows in other words if the pump is moving water it will never get too hot to set this code if the fuse blows I think it'll set the code regardless like the pump is burnt out.I have been through so many inverter pumps through every supplier and manufacturer I haven't had one last yet I'm scared to buy one from Toyota because usually when one or two factories are making this you're just buying the seconds or the ones that don't meet the top quality control tier maybe but all of them should not be failing like this this is ridiculous out of 10 I should get one or two that should last 5 years or something I'm along those lines out of the 5 or 7 that I've bought five have failed within 90 days oh they'll replace them all day long that's not a problem. Neither is changing them I just know that we can do better and I believe I have.

 

Not sure if the jumper or hv parts were needed, but the 12v disconnect generally is.

 

Now driving the heat for 50 or 60 miles and see if everything is staying at temperature

 

It sure sounds like you went through the steps in the diagnostic procedure. It doesn't help that Toyota limited the testing to: check the inverter coolant and pump, check the radiator fans, - replace the inverter. No real info about what the ecu is actually seeing that leads it to set the code.

If you have warning lights immediately then either the codes somehow didn't clear, OR you might have some type of hard failure in the inverter. I don't know if Torque has inverter temperature PIDs, or if you have to wait for the Autel AP200 (great tool for the $). I would want to check all the temperature readings for everything when the car is cold. MG's, inverters, ICE, all should read very close. If one is significantly off, that might be enough to throw a code.

If you gave an android phone you could give the BAFX another try with the Hybrid Assistant app (this doesn't have code functions but does display quite a bit of data from the ICE and hybrid systems- including temperatures).

If you can touch the inverter the bottom of it the middle of it where that hose on the bottom comes out not the hose out the plastic tank the one under it. If you can hold your hand on that area you're generally okay when it gets to the point that you can't hold your hand on that area you're starting to get on up there then I check my hoses on my pump for the inverter the input and the output hoses you know should be kind of close Waters just circulating around or it's not if it's not the hoses maybe dead cold and the inverter as hot as all get out the fluid in the jug is standing and the very bottom hose that goes into the bottom of the inverter will be quite warm Not a good situation.
