Prius (Gen 2) :: Scangauge - DTC Code And / Or Freeze Frame Data
Aug 22, 2012
When I use the "scan" feature of my Scangauge II, sometimes the DTC code and/or freeze frame data will change on me. That is, I check it and it says "1 stored code" (without clearing it), then go back to "Gauge" and then check the scanning function again, sometimes the code has changed to something else! With the freeze frame data, sometimes it will even change as I'm scrolling through the different data fields. Very disconcerting....

I would like to understand what this reports mean.

while trying to diagnose a check engine light. 2003 4.2 2WD Manual F-150. 135,000 miles.
Some background:
-I have changed the lower O2's fairly recently, but not the uppers
-Never changed MAF
-I checked for vacuum leaks in the last 18 months, none found
I pulled some freeze frame data after my hour long ride to work today, and this is what I have. Where I should go from here?? Truck seems to be running fine, but just "weak" when it comes to acceleration. There is smooth ideal and cruising. I am getting 20.2 mpg, mostly highway miles.
P0171

Load Pct 87.5
ECT 188F
SHRTFT1 5.5%
LongFT1 28.9%
SHRTFT2 1.6%
LongFT2 28.1%
RPM 2115
VSS 50 mph
If there is other data you might need, I can pull it. I think I had a 0.01 lb/s reading on MAF when I did a separate test. That was likely at idle though.

I made three ten mile trips this evening. On the first trip the "engine" light came on. This is the first time I have seen this light (2004 @ 134,000 miles). ScanGauge reports diagnostic code P0505. The "engine" light remained on through all three trips. Also, I was not able to get the ICE to shut down and run only on battery at all, even though the battery was on the upper level of charge and the engine was warm. There were long stretches where I normally run on battery at around 35 mph. I'm supposing there is a connection.

I was successfully able to install my Prius backup camera, but a few hours later I found that I could not shift out park. I was getting code U0293 on my scangauge. I can push the override button next to the shifter to shift out of park, but I can't figure out whats going on.

I have a 2005 prius and I got a scanguage to read the codes. I have two lights on my dash. One is the check engine and the other is the (O) light. I think this is something to do with the regen braking. Anyways when I run the scanguage it says no codes found. What type of scanner would be able to pull up all prius codes?

Bought a 2013 FX4 two weeks ago to replace my 94 F150 and got to enjoy it for a whole 10 days before I got rear ended at a stop light. The car hit me doing between 30-40, fast enough to make her airbags go off, and it was hard enought to force the bed to hit the cab. Unfortunately, the damage is more than cosmetic body work. The bottom of the bed is pushed up under the bedliner and the frame is bent in front of where the leaf spring connects. My concern is that the adjuster will want to "fix" the frame and I will be stuck with a lifetime of alignment issues, suspension issues, etc. I know the rear of the frame is not as much an issue as if the front was bent, but I don't know how they could fix it without cutting it and welding in a new piece, and how can I know that the frame is true?

Where do you plug Scangauge II inside the Prius?
How do you mount it? On the window or on the dash, and can you buy the mount or does it come with one?

I just received the Scangauge II and wonder if it can display the inverter temperature?

I have observed that the very top of HSI Eco Bar (100%) is 25 hp when you increase throttle from less than 100% up to 100%
If you bring the throttle down to 100%, from when you were in maxed in the power band (so this is going from 125% down to 100%), then the power reported is 30 hp. I have sustained this for a few seconds and repeated to make sure.

2012 GTI. DSG My airbag was blows, so I replaced it. Now im getting the following code.
18036 - Powertrain Data Bus
P1628 - 000 - Missing Message from Steering Angle Sensor
Can the sensor go bad after the airbag was blown? All the steering wheel controls still work.

Right around Christmas. Hubby used the code reader and found this:
U059E - Invalid Data Received from NOx Sensor A
And then cleared it. CEL went away and hasn't been back since, so my question is, am I safe? Was it a fluky reading on a cold day of making short errand runs? Or did I have an actual problem even though the CEL has not come back? Truck is running fine, no issues (knock on wood), and I'm not really worried - just curious more than anything.

I occasionally drill-down to check on pending codes, and my 2007 Prius likes to generate a LOT of them. Maybe pending codes don't count unless they escalate to an active code that triggers the check engine light.

My Scangauge is mounted on the dash just above the steering wheel. My last car, a Subaru Impreza had lots of room on the steering column. On the 2010 Prius it's very difficult to see when mounted there.
Cold weather is setting in and the glue on the velcro is starting to give out and the Gauge will soon fall. Where are you mounting them? How are you getting them to stick?

I use a scangauge to monitor the traction battery in my 2001 prius. Today when I started the car to come home, the alarm triangle came on, but the scangauge shows no codes found. The car ran fine and got me home, but what the alarm is about.

I'm a new Prius III owner and have diligently been reading the manual. There is a note in there not to use the parking brake in winter because it might 'freeze up.' I am in the habit of always setting the parking brake for safety reasons.

I have a 2008 Prius and the for about 2 weeks now it has been spontaneously resetting its memory. I turn the car off as normal, the next time I turn it on it tells me I have no gas, the MPG and Miles have reset, all my radio station presets are cleared. It started after I installed a subwoofer ( but I also installed it a couple weeks after I got it ) I thought the sub was draining the battery, but the car starts fine and shows the battery is one bar from full. So I ruled that out.

I am selling my 2009 Prius. Is there an easy way to remove all personal data (locations, telephone numbers, etc.) from the navigation, blue tooth system? A reset button??

I have had some problems with the wiper arm going too low on the downstroke and rubbing on the frame. I moved the arm up and then it started rubbing with other blade. I moved it back down and it rubbed again. Then next time I tried the wipers the passenger side would not move at all, but the driver's side moves fine. It seems like something needs adjusting and should be easy.

I have a 2011 Prius with less than 5000 miles on it. I keep the car outside and was wondering if this is normal. The side window scraper/guides along the bottom of the window door frames do not remove any due/fog from the outside of the car when the window is rolled up and down to clear it.
