12V Battery Replacement

We recommend the Duracell SLI51PAGM (S46B24R) Battery for the Prius from Batteries+. They are made in Korea, cheaper than Toyota and have a full 48 month free replacement warranty.

Combination Meter

WHY IS MY DASH COMPLETELY DEAD, but it still drives!? Unfortunately, the Prius is prone to combination meter failure (no dash lights and tricky to power off the car - must press and hold power off). All years are now out of the extended warranty program, so you're faced with a salvage unit (no guarantee and wrong odometer) or a new dealer unit (OUCH! $$$). We have partnered with Texas Hybrid Batteries and offer their repaired combination meters with lifetime warranty AND the correct mileage programmed into your odometer. NOTE: entire dash has to be removed. Air vent assemblies are brittle and frequently break. We do not replace, nor do we cover costs to replace broken air vent assemblies.

Light Tune Up

2004-2009 only. The Prius is sneaky. They are extremely reliable. People get lulled into believing they are bullet proof. Not quite. The Atkinson cycle engine is prone to an accumulation of carbon in the throttle body and MAF sensor. The computer can compensate for quite a bit, but eventually, it hits its limits and it runs a little rough, loses efficiency or generates "Failed to Start" codes and fails to start! Spark plugs seem to last forever too (they don't). The Tune Up service includes:

Cleaning the throttle body
Cleaning the MAF sensor
replacing the air filter
Replacing the cabin air filter
Replacing spark plugs

Just about everything the gas engine needs to ensure optimal efficiency! If portions of this work aren't necessary, it will be discounted accordingly.

Code: P0A93 (2004-2009 only). An Inverter coolant pump failure is one of the few failures of the hybrid system that can force the car to turn off. A/C stops working moments before, and then all the alarms go off - red triangle, etc.

The Inverter has overheated and shuts down forcing the car to shut down as well. After 10-15 minutes, the Inverter may have cooled to the point that you can drive again, but you may be shutting down again any moment. The inverter coolant pump circulates coolant between the inverter and a dedicated radiator to keep the inverter in the operational range. P/N G9020-47031 Replace with factory new:

Code: P1121 (2004-2009 only). The 3 way coolant valve that regulates the coolant flow to the storage tank can fail. You get a brand new part from Toyota at far less than the dealer charges. P/N 16670-21010.
