- Why? Idk! I bought this Prius with a ABS system issue just to find out that sitting for a few years hadn't done her any favors. Mouse damage, corroded battery connections, and several other unexpected side items made this adventure go from a few loose weekends to a multi month hell of work to get it back on the road! Starring a guest appearance by multiple LLVs!

It was fun watching you create this vid. Still can't believe we missed an errant zipper being down...
Monty is so cute!

Much braver than I am to take on resurrecting a hybrid, nicely done!
I weirdly enjoy working on these cars, something about the familiarity of Toyota combined with 'high voltage' electronics 😁
I have a 2002, the ABS system is not just ABS, it is a fiendishly complex semi-brake-by-wire system. If the pump goes, you have very limited brakes.
No rears at all and a whole lot of assist-less slop in the front as it runs in it's manual failsafe. It's a bit of a wild system design, reading the pile of engineering books I have on it was a lot of fun
Nice to see a new video, even if not on the Postal Van. 👍👍
I'm just getting ramped up on video updates, that is hopefully next to come 😁
@@PostalDog94 Wonderful to know. No rush on this side
Air conditioning? That car is too rich for my blood.
The air conditioning system on this generation Prius is actually pretty neat, there is a thermal-storage evaporator core that keeps blowing cold air when the combustion engine cuts off at a stop or when the compressor clutch disengages. I have a 2002 and I'm not sure that is working, the AC blows WARM when the clutch disengages or the engine shuts off.
Are those new busbars copper?
I ended up wondering the same thing. I ended up cutting the footage but it had come with an extra one, so I bent and cut that one up and it was infact nickel plated copper as they advertised.
