I'm not sure which brand it is, but I just bought a scan-tool from the guy at the Re-Involt place in NC. I was talking with him about the...
I've been looking at that scanner.. So it appears it is just a USB cable with some software for a PC. Price is $250 plus I would need the toyota...
No problem. here we go: I saw this car advertised on craigslist in my area very cheaply. The guy told me he bought it from an auction a few...
The sense wires allow the battery computer to monitor the voltage level on every "block" which is two modules in series.
Yeah. that seems to be the problem. And the ironic thing is my best friend is a Toyota master technician and an expert on the Prius. The problem...
Haha. That was the first thing I did when I got it home, upon advice from a friend.
Well, but the question is.. When you go to a toyota dealer and say "I want to buy a battery pack" at the parts counter, do they charge you $2,400...
I just sent these guys an email asking if the cells they use are new or used. I'm having a hard time justifying $2,000 when I could buy a brand...
Well, I didn't plan on driving it around that way. I just want to get the engine started so I can make sure everything else is working on this...
I have one of those cheap $50 OBD-II tools but it doesn't read all the data from the rest of the computers in the Prius. My friend says the...
Well, since it is giving a spark, I figure it knows the crank position. (I could be wrong?) Although I didn't check the fuel pressure, I...
Okay, I charged up all those individual modules. True, there are definitely 3 of them that are dead and won't take a charge, but the rest of them...
Okay, here's a picture of that 2002 Prius I bought for $2,800 with the dead HV battery: [IMG] Notice it has a sunroof? According to my...
Actually, I had thought to look there, but I guess it doesn't show location when you are replying (when you scroll down and see all the previous...
So you are saying it is almost brand-new? I hope it isn't in Hawaii (I'm just guessing because you said Aloha) I might be interested if the...
I didn't think about that. So I decided I would just pop out all of the little sense wires from the plastic before soaking. It's a good thing...
I think it was around 8.9v... however, I checked it again 2 hours later and it had dropped back down to 2.5 volts where the rest of the modules...
Just an update. I just got done charging one of the modules that was really low. It was reading about 1v. This is one of the ones that came...
Well, just an update on this. I decided to do an experiment. I took half of the little nuts that attach the modules to the busbars (there are...
On top of that, the charger said the module already had about 20% charge when I started it. So I'm pretty optimistic that the modules still have...
