Is there a place where you can have the various results detailed to you? Yellow bars, light green bars dark green bars and the red bars(no explanation needed). That and the various chart data on top. I put in a replacement battery bank and cleared the P0A80 code. The triangle is gone, the check engine light is gone, but the P0A80 indication shows up on Dr Prius after the test cycle I put the battery through. Does the car have to go through a few drive cycles for the P0A80 to go away or has it shown up with the replacement cells(All 28 were replaced.) Thanks.
What did you replace them with? Used ones or new ones? What type? If they were new, and balanced, and you cleared the codes, the code will clear on it's own once the system goes through several normal cycles.
You can't "refurb" used up cells. Once the chemicals break down, that's it. My personal opinion is refurbished is miss used to get unsuspecting people to buy used marginal cells..... and it works. So many people have bad issues with they I just can't understand why people still fall for it. Anything that is "used" is a risk to the buyer. I've purchase several used item and have been very fortunate with those items. I'm going to have 363,000 miles on my 2010 Prius by the end of this week. Some things are just not worth the risk buying used. Like the engine and hybrid battery. When they fail, that's a huge cost. Even if you install it yourself. I understand some people just don't have the money to buy new, so you do what you can afford to do at the time. I've been there several times. Experience is the best teacher.
The answer I was looking for is the You Tuber, "Hybrid Solutions Diagnostics" with a guy named, Jose.
