      The Hybrid drive (which takes place of the flywheel) is actually the starter, there is no 12v starter.

    What symptom was the vehicle giving you that made you think the engine was seized? For example did you hear the generator want to rotate but struggled? Did you hear metal grinding?
    Or did it simply not do anything when push start?
    I'm having trouble with mine not turning on.

    • @samcap64
      @samcap64  3 года назад +2

      The car would just fail to turn over, no noise except maybe some clicks. Turning the engine over by hand was impossible. It turns out the engine spun the front crank bearing. After installing the new engine the car runs great!

    There's a guy near me with a active 7 and he took all the badges off of it because it won't start and nobody wants to buy it he's asking 10000 for it but he will take 5000 but I'm asking you he told me that the alarm went off and from that point it would not start he keep on saying something about the battery but he's not being Pacific about which battery so I'm asking you what would you think would be the problem why it's not starting

      I did! I got the new engine in and have been driving the car for about two years. Have put on about 15,000 miles. I still need to make a follow up video, but I intend to work on building a custom hybrid battery for it as well. I intend to apply that knowledge to building replacement batteries for these to sell.
