Separate names with a comma.
That would, of course, have to be ascertained on a case-by-case basis, and would depend upon the accuracy of the diagnosis, the residual value of...
Re: After removing Orange Traction Battery disconnect tab, "BROKE" the prius after pressing Start bu Toyota states that pushing the power...
Yeah, that one was a bit beyond the pale. I wouldn't be surprised to see the photo end up in a "what not to do" presentation. To bwilson4web's...
To begin with, no one in this thread made that specific claim. So I'm not sure what post you are responding to. That being said, you have...
I dislike long posts myself. Unfortunately, it is often difficult if not impossible to adequately explain why technical information is incorrect,...
Not necessarily. The lubrication system can be pretty forgiving. If the transaxle had "run dry" as you say, it is quite possible that one...
With all due respect, your assumption is incorrect. Nowhere in this thread did I mention a Techstream or a laptop. Nowhere in this thread did I...
Regarding your handiwork, I didn't say that it was a temporary fix. I only recommended to readers of this forum that such an installation be...
From the last photograph of bwilson4web's modification, it appears that the battery terminals are positioned in such a way that they could both...
If you are using the word "carry" to mean "keep in stock", then that will be dependent on each dealer's inventory level. However, the original...
I'm well aware that some folks in North America refer to the vehicle as a Generation 0. That's why I pointed out - correctly - that it's a...
I would recommend joining the Yahoo group for Mk1 Prius. You can find it fairly quickly with a web search. While the traction battery is a...
That's a North American conceit. The 1997-2000 Prius is indeed referred to as a first generation vehicle in most of the markets where it can be...
What are the symptoms, and what information do you have on the diagnosis? Both issues are rare for this particular transaxle. It would be even...
Re: UPDATE Where I am at with DIY repairs Most commercial code readers read only engine codes. Disconnecting the 12V battery is often...
Such readings can be quite normal, as can be a reading of 7.9V per module. In fact, they are fairly common.
All it means is that the observed state of charge of that module is significantly different than the observed state of charge of the other...
Actually, ~300V is a common voltage level for a healthy Gen I battery pack at rest. The 273.6 volt rating is somewhat akin to a 12V rating on an...
If you feel that my observations have been in the least bit inaccurate, feel free to point them out. I won't mind in the least. People deserve...
Were you aware that by doing that, you were erasing data which could be used to properly diagnose the fault? It was a waste of time. You have...
