    I have a 2014 PiP. Could someone with a Gen3 PiP get a screenshot of their battery performance under Torque or another OBD program? Mine's below, and I'm trying to make sense of it:

    Aux Bty- obviously the 12 battery
    V01 through V08 appear to be the traction battery and all look consistent.
    V09 has what looks like close to double the volts of the other cells.
    V10-V14 appear to be reading zero or close to it?

    In the Repair Manual (more info), the description of the Data List items for the hybrid control system mentions only eight battery block voltages, which are all supposed to be in the range 21 to 28 volts at 60% state of charge. I imagine the software you’re using was written for Prius cars, which do have fourteen battery block voltages. I don’t know where the readings for V09 though V14 came from, but on a Prius Plug-in model, you can ignore them.

    Other apps like Dr. Prius and Hybrid Assistant will display data like this in a way more tailored specifically for the car. As said, V09 to V14 can be ignored.
