Yes, and I checked the 12V early on. The voltage is good (too long ago for me to recall specifically, but 12.X). I plan to drive a bit today,...
OK, I finally got a moment to go inspect the 12V battery closely. No corrosion, but... The cable on the negative terminal was quite loose;...
That's probably it, then -- for the smell, that is. I guess it doesn't, then, have anything to do with the electrical problem. Is replacing...
A COUPLE UPDATES 1. OK, I drove it again today, and thought how to describe the odor. It's rather similar to gauze bandages. You know that...
Now! There's an idea that I'd not even thought of. It does seem to happen when pressing the Power button. Hmm... I had thought that it...
Thanks for the quick reply! I'm using a "Foseal" wifi OBDII reader, communicating to "Engine Link" app on an iPhone. I'll check the 12V...
BTW, I took some pics of the leak problem. Figured I'd post them, in case anyone's interested. Note the suspicious gap at the top: [ATTACH]...
Something strange has begun on my (rebuilt) 2006 Prius. I'm finding random short-lived electrical failures. Usually, it happens when the car is...
It is a pain, yes. Though on my model [2006 for the front part of the rebuilt car], the trip meter button is not on the steering wheel, but...
I had always intended to post a follow up -- a conclusion, if you will; an epilogue, a denouement, a post-op, a final chapter. As it were. So...
Huh..interesting. I thought that the block would be low all the time, if it was going bad. So, it could still be the battery slowly dying. [I...
Sorry, I was typing from memory. Here's the link to the battery (gen 2): Battery - Toyota (G9510-47031) | McDonoughOE Yes, they appear to ship...
Now, back on the original thread, I have an update. I got an OBDII WiFi dongle (after much searching for something that worked, I found one by...
I think it must be "Cost Per Mile". Which is indeed the ultimate key. Saving gas is great & all, but if you pay a ton for the battery, then it...
Thanks, yes. I'm not right next door, but am within striking distance of PDX. I actually just ran across them, too. I didn't see that their...
Hey, all. I finally got the Prius back out of the local shop -- no work done on it, just delays in getting it back. I drove it just fine, 25...
Yeah, the spark gets lost among the other discussion, I think. But do note that the spark was separated from the puddle of water not only by...
Thanks for the explanation. That's crazy, though. Why does Toyota place all that work on the various & scattered dealership mechanics? Seems...
OK, rats. That essentially takes away one option. But what I don't understand is what's going on HERE (see YouTube video at the following...
