Pretty crazy, right? I plan to keep the car as my own, so I am not looking to flip it and I am also okay with it not being perfect. The front...
Hello all! Gen 2 owner here. I couldn’t help myself and picked up a 2021 model from a salvage auction. It was a good price and looks to just need...
If I said NPD I meant NPB (New Prius Batteries). The pictured battery was my old one. Heres a shot of the NPB when I took it apart. Thankfully I...

Whew! I am back! Is that connector the fan connector? None of the wires seem to lead to the fan. Not sure though. As I mentioned in the first...
@PriusCamper I appreciate your input. I went ahead and took apart the interior quite extensively to get to the battery ECU. Uh oh, looks crispy......
Thanks, @edthefox5 and @PriusCamper I will have to check the battery. I also apologize if my posts are popping up oddly, I am still new so they...
Thanks all! I appreciate the feedback and responses so far. When I changed the 12v battery I couldn't find a date on it? I wonder if the 12v that...
This past Friday me and my wife loaded up our F150 in anticipation to drive the 4 hours to the Prius and expect to have to tow it home. On the way...
