Separate names with a comma.
1) careful (but violent) use of the largest prybar that I get into position between the inner joint and transmission 2) gentle (steady) use of a...
Not really. You can't change beliefs with a few words. I said what I needed to in post 3. That and I've wasted too much time to use crap AM...
The Hybrid Vehicle Control ecu is the "cruise control" ecu. It has a dedicated data comm circuit to the SRS ecu on connector H14 pin 20. The...
If techstream can connect to the HVAC ecu, report any codes. Otherwise if connections at the ecu and MFD are in fact secure, then I would suspect...
I expect some of this is simply a resulting force at the rear axle. The car moves forward and the rear tires rotate around their center. The...
As mentioned, if you do not have one fully functional SKS fob then you have to follow an "all keys lost" scenario. This involves using an enhanced...
Before you ready the car up in the morning, turn ignition power on (power button x2, NO foot on the brake). Turn the HVAC blower OFF. (Ideally,...
Do the headlights work? Do the brake lights work? If the answer to both questions is yes, then check the AM2 fuse in the underhood fuse box. A...
You should look at getting a better scantool. If the interlock wasn't seated, then there was a code set. It just wasn't in the ECM (which is the...
Thanks for the update! .
I replace all three because I'm in there. I used the recommended values (including the 220uF) and it works. Yes, if needed you can go to a higher...
Do a pin drag check of the data link connector terminals. Verify good grounds at pins 4 & 5. A Gen2 uses CAN at pins 6 & 14 for scantool...
Go back "to the scene of the crime". Remove the valve cover, then use a wrench to turn the engine clockwise until the notch on the crankshaft...
This isn't "coaxial" cable - that has braided or woven conductors that are part of the signal path. This is just foil tape and an "earth drain"...
BAD idea, as the power button is also used to turn the car off. I would not want to have to jump through hoops - or be unable to power the car...
Both screws on the MAF sensor are the same. Often the "X" in the lower one gets rusty and a screwdriver won't fit. I have to clear it out with a...
The bare wire and foil tape are there for shielding. They connect to chassis ground and surround the insulated wires, reducing electromagnetic...
I do not know why you would respond to a 12 year old thread, but for YOUR car it sounds as if you have a failing capacitor in the Combination...
The "Transmission Control system" on a Gen2 Prius is a fancy name for the ecu and motor that engages the parking pawl. This prevents the car from...
I will guess that was some type of "tuned vibration damper" that came apart because of rust. .
