Prius (2004-09) :: Rebalancing After Replacing Single HV Module?


Mar 31, 2016

I've got a dead module (and the dealer wants over $3k to replace the whole battery). I just read most of the excellent thread on replacing a single module from my battery, and I think I can do it.

Where I'm hesitant is the rebalancing. Back in 2013, it sounds like with $400 worth of chargers it could be done in 6 days. A later post referenced the Reaktor 300W charger. I can get one of those for $121.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Replacing 4GS DRL With Single Uniform DRL

Is it possible to replace the 4GS DRL assembly (that has multiple LEDs) with one that has the single uniform DRL look (like the LS and NX)? Just curious as I saw an NX behind me and couldn't stop staring at its DRLs because of how uniform they looked.

Prius (2004-09) :: Hearing Single Beep About Every 4 Minutes While Driving?

I am hearing a single BEEP, about every 4 minutes, when I am driving. What the heck is it? I can't figure it out, looked in the Manual.

I found the Internal Alarm on Page 432, don't think it is that. The key is in my pocket, the car is on, I am driving! I've also removed the key from my pocket and set it on the front passenger seat, darn BEEP continues.

Prius (2004-09) :: Single Metallic Click Sound When Turn Steering Wheel A Little Over 90 Degrees

I've been noticing this one single "metallic" click sound a few months ago, it happens whenever I turn the steering wheel a little over 90 degrees.

The steering intermediate shaft recall has been done summer of last year. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with this sound I'm hearing.

This is a video I made

If you watch this video, you need to turn it up really loud to hear the faint click sound every time I turn the steering wheel past 90 degrees.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - ABS Skid Plate Module Defective

I have a problem with my 2005 Prius ABS Skid plate module. It was defective and I replaced it with a unit from a 2007 car. The brakes work perfect now but I cannot get the warning lights to go off. The codes that come up on the computer are codes which indicate a loss of communication between other modules.

Prius (2004-09) :: Code P3012 / Red Triangle But All Module Voltages Stable

2007 Prius with 112k. It's getting the red triangle and check engine with code P3012. My understanding is P3012 points to 'Battery Block 2 Becomes Weak'. Battery block 2 is the 3rd and 4th modules counting from the end where the ECU is. These two modules test out the same as the other 26 modules in this pack, ranging from 7.40 to 7.46.

I got them this low by running A/C on high with car in neutral, hoping the bad module would show up. (Neutral prevents engine from charging HV battery.)

Prius (2004-09) :: 2006 (125K Mile) Traction Battery Module Replacement

I just replaced two bad modules in my 2006 (125K mile) traction battery. I replaced one other module a year ago successfully. I installed the battery last night and tried to charge it with my Hybrid Automotive charger. The charger would not go into charging mode. So I decided to check the idiot lights on the dash - plug in key and push the power button - every light on the dash lit up and stayed lit. The battery charge indicator in the display on the dash had most of the blue bars filled. I left the power on for several minutes and the engine never started (usually does regardless of state of battery charge for a minute or two when you first power up the Prius).

Prius (2004-09) :: Random Misfire Detected / Individual Battery Module Replacement

I have a 2005 Prius Gen II with 114,000 miles on it. I was driving last week when it suddenly displayed a Christmas tree of lights that included VSC and the triangle of death....and of course the battery fan kicked into high gear.

Hooked it into a OBD II scanner:
P0A80 "Hybrid battery pack over temperature"
P3019 "battery block 7 becomes weak"
P3000 "DSL solenoid circut low"
P0300 "random misfire detected"
P000A "engine position system performance- bank 1"
Also C1241, C1242, c1249, c1259, c1310, c1357

I went ahead and cleared the codes. The angry lights went away but came back within minutes of driving. The car went into limp mode but I was able to make it home.

Prius (2004-09) :: Replacing New Struts / Shocks

I'm looking at replacing the struts and shocks in my 04 Prius. Last time I replaced them with some cheap KYBs I found on auto parts warehouse. I was hoping for an improvement over the old worn out parts, but didn't feel an improvement. Well after 5+ years and who knows how many miles I figured it was time to replace them again.

Prius (2004-09) :: Replacing Hatch Gas Strut?

I need to replace these as they are weakening. Can I get replacements at my FLAPS or are they a Toyota-only item? I'm asking because on another vehicle, I could not get the strut from a FLAPS due to the length not being a standard length with the proper connectors.

Prius (2004-09) :: CEL Code P0300 After Replacing The Air Filter

My CEL has come on about four times in the last month shortly after replacing the air filter with a pepboys Purolator air filter. I have cleaned the MAF sensor each time using MAF cleaner and the issue along with the CEL go away then come back in about a week.

I don't know if the MAF sensor is bad because each time i clean it, the issue stops. also, upon first glance at the Purolator filter, i thought it looked a little thicker than the stock one but I didn't think twice about it.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 Not Starting After Replacing 12 Volt Battery

My Prius has 150k miles on it. We didn't drive it for a few days and when we went to turn it on,it wouldn't work. We were able to jump start it a couple of times, however after that we ended up having to replace the battery. We purchased it brand new from toyota. Then, the car wouldn't do a thing (No sounds, no lights, other than the red amber power button and the flashing check engine light, which was not on before.) We ended up having two blown fuses and we replaced them today, one was for the battery.Now the lights are on, but the car still won't start. It will cost over $200 to have the car towed and I am really trying to avoid that right now. I don't know much at ALL about cars. but I'm trying.

Prius (2004-09) :: 2007 - Replacing / Fixing Side Mirror

Any diagram for replacing a side mirror? I've read the threads about how to replace them, but if there was a cutaway view or diagram, it would sure make my job easier. I have a 2007 Prius, a replacement mirror, and the desire to fix it myself. I just do much better if I can visual the job at hand.

Prius (2004-09) :: Coolant Storage Tank Assembly Need Replacing?

I got a warning light that the Toyota dealer said indicated that the Coolant Storage Assembly tank had gone bad. It's not leaking, just not working. It's a very expensive fix and in the little bit of research I've done I'm wondering whether it needs to be fixed. My understanding is that it takes warm coolant and stores it in a thermos-like container to stay warm a few days to assist cold starts. However, I live near San Francisco and the weather is very mild here. We might have a few below freezing days in the winter, but for the majority of the year nights are only 50 degrees, and usually only 40 degrees n the winter. So, do I really need this fixed? It seems that since the weather here is so mild it should be fine. BTW, I haven't fixed it since the light went on in January and haven't had any problems starting the car so far.

Prius (2004-09) :: No Ready Light After Replacing Traction Battery

We just replaced the Traction battery in my 2004 prius. The car has 242,000 miles on it and was running fine when we pulled it in. The battery was purchased used from a 2005 prius with just over 80k on the clock. The replacement battery was removed from the wrecked prius less than a month ago.

The problem is that after installing the new traction battery, every thing looks great except the Ready light will not come on. There are no warning lights except the little red light that indicates there is no key in the car. The key will remotely lock and unlock the car so I'm sure the battery is not dead and the no-key light stays on even if I insert the key into the key slot on the dash. The shifter will only move from Park to Neutral.

What am I doing wrong? Is there some special procedure to go through to make the car recognize the key after replacing the battery?

Prius (2004-09) :: Won't Start - Repairing / Replacing Junction Box And Water Pump

The gist is that my 2006 Prius would not start, even with an attempted jump, and now the dealer (Keany Mesa Toyota in San Diego) says the total cost of repair will be $2400 for a new junction box relay and water pump ($800/$2400). I am stunned at the cost and am questioning the need for both jbr and wp -- but apparently, wp is leaking. About a year ago, the expensive battery was replaced, luckily under warranty , so no cost. Don't know if jbr, wp and battery failures are related, typical repairs or we just have a lemon or getting ripped off. is the water pump recall from years ago relevant here? Should we get a competing bid from a non-dealer/Prius expert (is there one in SD, a search of Prius chat found 1 recommendation but it was rather weak), or just get the damn work done and have a stiff drink to deal with it, or maybe it is time to get a new car - Prius or other (what's the chance the dealer give us a good trade-in deal?)
