Separate names with a comma.
That just means that there was a little flake of steel floating around inside the oil pan. (the sensor has a magnet inside). You can test sensor...
If there are lights and beeping then there are codes. O'Reilly's just doesn't have a capable scantool that can talk to all systems on a Prius....
If brake operation was "normal" before Car-x performed work, why not take it back there? Drive the car at 30 or so. Shift to neutral then apply...
I've got the ThinkDiag for my smartphone, and it seems to do just about everything that Techstream does. ThinkDiag 2 is an "updated" version that...
You will want to check the orange connector pins in the battery ecu for corrosion. I have many scantools, but when I want to monitor battery...
You would benefit from having a capable scantool. Here's a thread that reviews several apps and devices....
As long as there is no corrosion at the orange connector of your battery ecu, you should have no problems. Take before and after pics for...
Certainly suspicious. Set your digital multimeter to DC volts (if yours has manual range setting, go with 2.0V). Put one lead on one of the...
The "big" thing on Dr Prius is the Volt Diff data (voltage difference). This is the value of the highest block voltage minus the lowest block...
Yes, aftermarket parts can be absolute crap. I use parts from my local Toyota dealer and have had zero problems. That said, what have you...
How do you know that it was an "old" P0A80? In general only a fault in the hybrid control system will turn on the master warning light (RToD) plus...
If your car now works correctly then congrats, - drive long and prosper. .
Yes, disassemble the outer case and inspect the base where the modules bolt down. If there's a leak, you'll often see some corrosion or...
You cannot check "continuity" through a battery and have a meaningful result. Only a voltage measurement will make any sense. Posted via the...
No, the hybrid control system has self tests that specifically check function of the contactors every time it goes to ready up. If something...
Typically, a 612 sub code results from a minor electrolyte leak from one of the battery modules. It's possible to have corrosion damage at the...
Your post is one long mosh-up of sentences. It would be much easier to understand with some paragraphs and breaks. If I understand correctly, you...
It could be that there is some excessive parasitic draw that drains the 12V battery when the car is off. 6 weeks of inactivity is way too long,...
Using a RC hobby charger to determine module capacity is a bit of a guestimate. Use the discharge value, as that sort of measures the "actual"...
What you see in the report is some kind of glitch. At the exact time that the ECT temperature graph spikes up to 240°, the short and long term...
