Separate names with a comma.
If you are not "mechanically gifted" & DIY capable (or know someone who is), then as mentioned, an old hybrid isn't a great choice. It might...
I would look at the voltage on your scantool data while gently wiggling the connector and wire harness at the transmission ecu. See if you can get...
So.... IF the ICE won't run unless you directly "hotwire" the fuel pump (kind of difficult to follow your post), then you need to check the power...
I would be interested is seeing what exhaust backpressure is at the downstream O2 sensor port with the valve closed vs open. But not too many folk...
Yep. Can't say I have had anything automotive breakdown "at a convenient time and place". Same reason why I replace the 12V battery at 5 years -...
Happens fairly often on blowers, starters, door lock actuators, etc. Not surprised that it's happened here. I am just doubtful that it is the...
Some Gen2 (2004-2009) Prius were equipped with the Smart Key System. This allowed the driver to just have the fob in his/her pocket and walk up to...
Well... If the new modules are securely bolted to the bottom case (and you didn't short the busbar connections while putting the top case back...
All depends on your risk tolerance. If (when) the inverter pump dies then it either stops pumping and the car shuts off slowly (overheat with...
It means that any converter you install will likely have a short life before oil combustion residue renders it "nonfunctional". Some people will...
Hello and welcome to PriusChat! What scantool are you using? Is it capable of communicating with the 15-16 systems on a Gen2 Prius? Normally you...
{shrug} I have seen aftermarket "clockspring" assemblies last 4 years, & I've seen them only last 9 months. The original Toyota part went over...
Considering that you're only talking about 4 quarts of fluid every few years, I don't see much reason to use anything but Toyota WS. Ain't really...
If the system is bypassed I might expect it to turn on the check engine light since the heat exchanger is there for emissions and the temperature...
That code means that the airbag ecu has detected an open circuit (broken wire or bad connection) for the driver's airbag in the steering wheel....
Just crimped connections on the sense wires. .
Good luck with that. Worn pump motor can certainly cause those codes. However the motor usually gets worn because a leak in the actuator causes...
What model Autel scantool do you have? Some are capable enough to perform diagnostics on a Gen2 Prius. Get a copy of the factory service manual...
According to the manual, that code sets when the voltage at pin 13 of the transmission ecu is 10V or less for more than 1 second. So I would...
Well. I agree that there are a number of problems evident in that picture. The blackened busbar and melty orange plastic point to heat from a...
