    I have a P0A80 situation according to Dr prius app. When I attempt to do the life expectancy test, my car never charges. I put in drive and floor gas and brake, engine revs and stalls and no charging happens. I can not complete either of the battery test. What is going on?

    But the car drives fine and everything looks good on the main display of the car it's just a problem with Dr Prius not the car?

    no warning lights on the dash? if there are, you need the sub codes for the bad blocks
