    In your post last year. What battery did you use? How has it worked out over the long run?

    "It will work fine.
    I just replaces my 12v batt with a lifepo4 batt"

    Hello there. Hope you can help. Remember when you had these lights come on. Emergency brake, ABS(!), brake system warning light. I have that now with C1249. My lights went back out. Did yours ever come back on? Do you do anything to fix it? Thanks

    Hi there again. Two weeks have passed and I got some brake trouble codes today. They went off after I stopped the car and haven't come back on yet just driving back and forth a few car lengths. Would you be able to take a look at my thread on it please?

    You got a lot of funny business going on there buddy You say you replaced the ECU I'm sure you're talking about the ECU under the dash maybe not in the battery front end seems to be a lot of terminology problems and whatnot

    Hi Mendel, you’ve always been helpful when I’ve asked you a question. After just over 10 years 8 months and over 160,000 miles, the 12 volt battery on our 2014 Prius has finally failed. So, I’m looking at options. AAA wants $250 for their replacement, Costco wants $180 for theirs (Interstate). Do you recommend either of these or another brand? Thanks for any advice. Cheers, Dave

      Yeah, only select Costco’s have the one I need, so I’ll probably go with AAA that includes install. I might even check with the local Toyota dealer, but I doubt they use a memory saver. AutoZone has the yellow top Optima for $290.

      Dealerships up here are absurdly high priced, even just for the battery. Still, they may have memory, they’re nothing special.

      Turns out my dealer was just under $216 for a True Start w/84 mo warranty. They gave me a military discount, so just over $194 plus tax. They also said I could start the car, let it run and change the battery without losing memory. I hesitate to do that though, so I’m waiting on the memory saver to be delivered tomorrow.

    Hey PC! Saw your question in my thread.

    I was just fine until last October, then I was hit with a bunch of problems. Between work & juggling the onslaught of problems, I had to put YouTube videos aside for a bit. But they'll be back soon.

    Still in my car & love it. April 11th will be the 3 year anniversary.

    This forum needs to hire you as a mod or something. Your knowledge is quite amazing when it comes to Prius'
