No problem. I thought that may be the case but wasn't sure.
Thanks. I thought it was some display of the MFD I hadn't seen yet.
Thanks. That helps me better understand the process.
I have felt different sensations in the braking process but didn't know exactly what they were. It's starting to make more sense now I think. Is...
What are you using to see the amps output?
I don't think I understand. I haven't seen any regen display on the MFD. Is there a view I haven't seen yet on my 05? How do I get to it. I...
So it sounds like you area saying there is a varying amount of power generated depending on the amount of pressure on the brake peddle? I thought...
Did the CarFax specifically state the HV (High Voltage) Traction Hybrid Battery was replaced or may it have been the 12V battery? At that age...
Good point! Thanks John.
I had thought that in the regenerative braking system that applying the brakes maybe caused some mechanism in or around the wheels to generate...
I see. This further clarifies the process to me. Yes, I see now that the inverter is more than a conduit but is really converting the high voltage...
Ok, thanks guys. I think I understand it better now. To recap my new understanding, in READY mode the converter/inverter is allowed to charge the...
I have picked up in various threads that the best mode for the car to be in while sitting and listening to the radio or running other accessories...
Congratulations!! This seems like the best of all outcomes for you. And cudos to edthefox5, Britprius, and others that called it right from the...
I don't think we have any solid answers on the life span of the Prius. We haven;t gotten that far yet. Lots of 200,000+ and the 300,000 mile club...
If you can find the replacement at an auto parts store they will often install for free. If they have to order it it may be in the next day or...
Agreed. It most likely had to be the 12V that caused the problem and was jumped by AAA. You could go through the volt testing and charging process...
I defer to the position of edthefox5. He is much more knowledgeable about the car than I.
I'm no expert. But it's pretty apparent there is a problem with the electrical system. With the smell I would guess a there is a short. With the...
I agree. After 6 years, looking for a replacement is a better use of time at this point. That battery is toast.
