Separate names with a comma.
Perhaps not the battery, but the battery connections. Inspect them for corrosion, and make sure they are tight and well-connected to the battery...
Amazing how many Prii get discarded at the first hint of any trouble; welcome to the "automobile as appliance" age. Congrats on your successful...
Check also the thread "Battery Fires at ECU Sense Plug" in this forum... while flat cells (dead HV pack) is possible (likely?), the OTHER end of...
Davep, I think I agree with the earlier poster... with this being a "new" kind of car for you, and you having limited diagnostic resources, it may...
Davep, please check the codes... it's more likely that you intended to report P3191 and P3190. You seem to be on the right path by cleaning the...
A code reader and/or TechStream is a necessity for these vehicles, if you have any serious intent of keeping one alive. The vehicle is the first...
Well, here is an alternative approach. Use a non-chip ("dumb") key in the ignition, and use your "smart chip" key near the ignition switch when...
Michelin seems to have discontinued its defenders in 175/65R14 size. I have heard reports that 195/70R14 will fit the rims and in the wheel...
Thank you! for the clarifying circles. I had never looked at my steering column from the underside, and I had a hard time visualizing. I happen...
Did you find the cabin air filter? You get to that by opening, then unknurling the two hold-in knobs of the glove box, then drop the box. The...
Have you assured yourself that a refrigerant recharge is what's needed? If the water pump/AC drive belt slips, or if the AC drive clutch clips,...
I nominate this as a sticky. It's likely to become more frequent now that the fleet is 15+ years old, and a battery fire is not something that...
Nifty bit of detective work! But I'm looking at the picture - a good picture, BTW - but I can't discern exactly what you're describing as the...
An unknown fluid in the gas can... hmmm, probably water, or stale gas. Invest in a new gas can, run the fuel level down in the Prius (or, if you...
This from an '05 Prius, but the symptoms sound familiar... P0302, P0300 misfire codes after cleaning Throttle Body and MAF | PriusChat
Ostneb, white smoke coming out of the exhaust suggests to me that there may be water in the fuel. How it got there, I don't know. Question:...
much depends on the age and driving/thermal history of the battery pack. DOC? do you mean SOC (State of Charge)? Here is some more reading: Gen 1...
Not enough info for a diagnosis. I presume you don't have a techstream, to get to the information subcodes. See, for example, this thread: 2003...
Yet more followup on P1430 & P1437: Between the vacuum valve monitor (which sets these codes) and the HCAC valve (which in some climates is prone...
Good troubleshooting tale. Rather than a defective component, I would suspect (as you did) an intermittent connection to the ECU. My next...
