@@johnrpizzaguy what? I’m talking about the Scope. And obd2 is def not always under legs. On left side of dash door, or middle of console like Benz. But but I wasn’t talking about where to hook up a scan tool.
Yeah, the pumps are the most common failure item in these, next is the battery harness which corrodes and terminals break and of course cells can go bad which can be replaced individually. Scan data is super helpful in these, for pumps and variations of .5 volts between cells can cause codes and the red triangle of death, so it doesn't take much. Nice work.
I had the red triangle of death illuminate last year on my 2010 Toyota Prius. I determined it was the high-voltage battery. Not an overly difficult job, even for a DIY'er.
Like your videos, learning a lot from watching them. But I am a shade tree mechanic. Just starting to learn the electrical side of the cars. All I have is a basic code reader, test light, and a couple of voltage testers. Can not afford the fancy gadgets you have. Do you have any pointers to help us small guys out.
Personally, I want and need to see where every test lead is attached and why. Not everyone who views these is in the choir. I don't own one of those vehicles. But if I did. I would want all the insight I could get. There are channels aimed directly at the pros. This channel is all-encompassing pros and someone in a jam looking for help. Not everyone is an automotive technician.
NOPE, it's NOT the Red Triangle of Death. Officially it's the Master Warning Light that alerts us to possible problems in one or more systems. It could be low engine oil.
I tested a four wire pump on a 2015 prius with power,ground,activation and feedback signal good power,ground and activation but bad feedback signal,this was causing the problem it was the same fault code low performance, which I find misleading regarding the real fault
I'm curious who's the proof reader of the comments or are there multiple readers PS a quick short a lab scope Showing the indication and how to get rid of the noise
this electric pump is pumping coolant to keep the electrical inverter cool. Prius's have two separate cooling systems with pink antifreeze, one for the engine and one for the inverter. The inverter generates heat so it needs to be kept cool.
Short and sweet, right to the point. Just how I like it.
Thanks for removing the cap from the coolant so I could see actual movement!
I came here because of the kitten video. I stayed here for the Prius video lol. Subscribed.
I personally like to see how and where you connect and why. Ecu vs connector etc. I’m willing to bet the majority does. Thanks for sharing
OBD 2 port. Almost always under the driver’s lower legs
With the exception of the first couple of years of Honda being in the center console.

@@weldingjunkielol. Jay Q. You have to hook up on the DLC port 😅😂
Every issue in every car is different. Wiring and connector location diagrams are your friends.
@@djmobileautoservices 😂😂 is that under the hood?
Great Demo & Presentation 🙂 Enjoy your Scope Skills !!
Great diag for an electric water pump. Thanks for the nice work
As usual another excellent tutorial, to the point, no excess baggage, THANK YOU 🙂

Nice work.
I love how you don't assume what the issue is and throw parts at a problem.
love the hybrid diagnostic videos I am always wanting to learn more about them
I'm a DIY & don't know anything about a Prius. Thanks for the lesson. Good info to know.
Recently had this with a 2005 Prius, bought an aftermarket pump, hope it lasts!
P0A80 or P0A93 are very common dtc,s on these inverter cooling pump and replace hybrid battery modules are i am dealing every day....

Quick and easy. Thanks for sharing guys
Excellent presentation ! Thanks !
Hey thanks again my brother love it

thanks so much only have 1 customer with a prius has over 100,000 miles haven't dont anything other than maintenance
Keep up the good work! Great video
Always good to show the pump speed to based off the commutators.
Good job 👍
Will the pump work if the car is only in the ACC position, or does it have to be fully "ON"?
At 6:15, scope is a window into the circuit, always preferable, I use both scope and meter simultaneous, my preference.
Great videos, a while back you talked about a fluid to apply to electrical terminals to help with intermittent connection issues. What is that fluid
Could it be dielectric grease?

Thanks for posting. Sherwood have you guys ever had an EV vehicle with a coolant intrusion into to stator assembly come into your shop?
I did a inverter cooling pump on a customer Prius. Man that thing stunk like no other electric failure IV experienced.
The “money” light!!
What was the mileage on the pump before it broke?
At 6:40, unless there is wiring damage, you are approaching it the correct way.

good power,ground and activation
but bad feedback signal,this was causing the problem
it was the same fault code low performance, which I find misleading regarding the real fault
Now if you have how to do an insulation leak test on the high voltage system
I get that red triangle when i turn off my car what does that mean ?
Sure beats an expensive inverter
I'm curious who's the proof reader of the comments or are there multiple readers

You never said what kind of pump that is for the amateur guys they need to know that
3:33 is where he mentions it. 👍
Hybrids have an electric water pump separate from the mechanical one on the engine for the hybrid system
